  • Sibelius portamento line triggering pitch bend?

    Hello,

    I recently started using Sibelius again after using Notion for a while, and I'm having an odd issue with portamento. Using portamento staff text triggers the performance portamento patch flawlessly, but using a portamento or slide staff lines fails completely and instead triggers a pitch bend, which is limited to a range of a whole tone. I have ensured that the Sibelius dictionary triggers a "+portamento" sound ID change for both the portamento and slide staff lines. Has anyone had this problem or does anyone otherwise know of a way to ensure that that portamento staff lines in Sibelius trigger portamento correctly?

    Thanks

    (I'm using the latest versions of Sibelius Ultimate, Vienna Ensemble 6, Vienna Instruments Pro 2, and I'm referring in particular to the SE+ Vol. 1 solo strings)


  • Hello keef!

    I can reproduce this behaviour. The Sound IDs coming from the line and from the text command should be the same, but it seems like they are not. As this is not in our hands, I recommend contacting the Sibelius team about it.

    Best regards,
    Andi
