Need some help. I have attached pics of each step I’ve taken.
I created a custom Playing Technique called Legato - sustain (text “leg-sus”) to test my ability to successfully put all the elements in place to have Dorico trigger an articulation change in a VEP 7 Synchron Player channel.
(these picture files will have to be uploaded over multiple posts because of file size limits)

Pic of Expression Maps window showing my Expression Map name “1 SYSE Horns”, my “Legato - sustain” technique, and the keyswitches assigned to implement the needed articulation change.

Pic of Play Mode showing my assignment of the VEP Instance “VEP SYSE Brass” to the Dorico instrument, but no indication of the articulation switch from “Legato” to “Legato - sustain.”

Pic of my Endpoint Setup assigning the Expression Map “1 SYSE Horns” to the appropriate port and channel for my instrument.

When I initiate playback whatever articulation I manually select in the Synchron Player plays back fine. But I nothing I have done at this point has made Dorio implement a switch to another articulation in Synchron. Since it plays back, MIDI note data is getting through, but other than that my setup has been futile.
Any ideas?
