HUGE prob. putting effects on sounds - help!

Dear Herbert.

This IS a forum for users of notation software in general, non-company-specific, as its name implies, isn't it? QSE doesn't have a forum and nobody in their company, which is based in Canada, seems to speak English much. That's why I thought a general notation-users forum might be able to throw some light on the problem - if others have either used the software, or similar, they might be able to tell or show me what I'm doing wrong.

That's all my thinking was. Why don't you think that would be the case?

Yours puzzledly

Hello, Ulrich:

Actually, this is forum for users of software by Notation Software Inc., makers of Notation Composer and Notation Musician.

I don't think anyone here knows much about Quick Score Elite. I'm a Canadian and hadn't heard of it until I scooted over just now and had a look.

Without knowing anything about the software, I suggest that, having set the VST to ALL CHANNELS, attempting to manipulate one set of sliders is being overridden by the rest that are assigned to the voice.

Possibly not, as I don't know the software.

Kind of odd that Quick Score doesn't have a forum.

Good luck,

David

Dear David.

I thought as it just said Notation Software Forum, it was a forum for any kind of Notation Software. I didn't realise there was actually a COMPANY called Notation Software! I just did a GOOGLE for forums about notation software and this, of course, is what it came up with.

My mistake, but a little understandable, no?

I think you're on the right tracks with your answer, but you might be able to help me a little more, just because you know notation software. If, on your notation software, you assigned a VST to an individual channel and you didn't hear any sounds coming out, what would be the reason, or reasons for that (might be the same in QSE, I HAVE read my legally-acquired manual, I just don't know enough to know what I'm looking for in it!)

Secondly, if you've got a multi-instrument VST, do you assign each INSTRUMENT to its own channel, or just the VST itself to an individual channel (assuming you've solved the 'no sound coming out' problem)

I know you don't know QSE, just answer as if it's one of your programs you do know - assuming they use channels - and I'll see if the answers work with mine!

Basically, I'm just trying to get my MIDI virtual 'wiring' straight so I've got the right things connected in the right places to make the right circuit to get the right results!! I know I'm all mouse, no keyboard, but yours is the closest to sounding the right answer that I've come across yet.

Yours with thanks in advance

Hi Ulrich,

As David mentioned, this forum is for users of Notation Composer, Notation Musician, and Notation Player.

There are a number of other notation applications out there, and each of them has various settings and such for VST instruments or other ways to connect sounds to the notation score. Please do check to see if there's a forum for your particular software. You'll get much better help that way

ttfn,
Sherry

p.s. Even though the software company may not have an official support forum, they may have a "user forum" that is for users to help each other out.

ttfn,
Sherry
