Shadow note playing back wrong pitch

I’m transcribing a part for bass guitar, which is a transposing instrument as it sounds an octave lower than it’s written. Playback plays the correct pitch, but when auditioning pitches with the shadow note with pitch before duration turned on, the pitches are an octave too low.

Is there a setting I’m missing? I haven’t changed anything from the default playback settings and instruments.

Thanks for reporting this, Cameron. The issue is that by default bass guitar sounds an octave lower than the played pitch, so we assign an expression map that transposes up by an octave during playback. However, this isn’t being considered when we audition the shadow note pitch. This is something we’ll need to fix. Sorry for the inconvenience caused in the meantime.
