  • arpeggios going down in harp collection

    Greetings.  I'm rather new to Vienna Instruments (picked up my first one after years of using Opus 1 and 2 from the Horizon series) so please pardon me if my question is stoooooopid.

    Looking at the arpeggios in the Harp collection...  there are matricies that claim that A/B is up/down... however, there are no arpeggio patches in the "b" slot nor can I find any arpeggio patches going down in my library.  I do have the full harp collection (as far as I know)

    Is there yet another collection I need to get?  oy.

    I'm guessing this topic has been covered some where in the forum.  For some reason, searching for "harp" in the forum didn't produce results... (I got the same results...which was basically everything... as if there was no search at all...)

    Thanks for any info!

    Hmmm it shouldn't be the ab slots, but rather, using the A/B keyswitches. If you go to the advanced tab (at work, so no vsl...), there should be an A/B keyswitch that you can engage to do the up/down. Only one patch is required.

    It's also found on the basic view, below the X and Y axis control displays. It's usually set up with a keyswitch, I think - look for the two keys on the keyboard display that are coloured red.

    Yeah, that's the thing... I hit the keyswitches for A/B, and they change, but no change in sound.  the description of the matrix on the bottom right (I'm using VSL as an AU in Logic) says A/B switch up/down...

    Maybe I'm just misunderstanding the whole thing?  I'm pretty new at this...

     The A/B switch for up/down switching is available for the Harp glissandos but not for arpeggios. This kind of articulation is only performed upwards..
