Greetings All, and happy New Year,
I’ve recently downloaded the 30-day trial for NotePerformer 3.2 and have been testing the product. Both HALion Sonic SE and Kontakt 5.8 libraries are playing slightly out of sync with NP on playback in Dorico 2.2. I know that NotePerformer has a one-second delay as part of its design, but this out-of-sync-ness is definitely not a full second - it’s a matter of milliseconds.
There has been a fair amount of discussion in various forums about non-NP libraries functioning just fine alongside NP, and any delay being properly and automatically accounted for by Dorico.
Per the trouble-shooting suggestions I’ve researched on this Dorico forum, I’ve set my playback template to NotePerformer, and then changed particular instruments to Kontakt and Halion. As suggested, I’ve also tried closing and reopening Dorico, as well as restarting my computer. I’ve looked for solutions via the forums on the Dorico, Kontakt, and NP Facebook pages, but haven’t found any solutions yet.
The instruments from Halion and Kontakt libraries I’ve been auditioning are mostly pianos and percussion instruments, instruments that don’t have a wide envelope or naturally sound behind the beat because of their legato scripting. Also, I’m running MacOS 10.14.2.
Thanks in advance for your help, everyone!
