TIP: Just Intonation HEJI accidentals working with Kontakt Cremona Quartet

A while ago I learned for a Dorico user that

Dorico sends the pitch info through Expression Map Data/Microtonality playback: Pitch Bend and Pitch Bend range should be set to: 2.

In order for the Kontakt instrument to receive this info the settings below need to be made. Without doing this the instrument plays detuned frequencies, just not the correct ones.

In Kontakt: press wrench button/Edit All Groups/Add Modulator/External Sources/Pitch Bend. The slider needs to be set at 1 semitone.

Hi ! This does not seem to be a question. Is it a tip to help other users?

Hope it is ok to post a tip. Info was so hard won – wanted to make it easier for others.

Tips are fine.

(I take mine in U.S. currency.)

It’s perfectly fine! I’ve used my mini-power here in the forum to modify your title and make it very clear :wink:
