articulation maps bug & partial solution

Post by rand »

I had recently purchased Babylonwaves extensive collection of articulation maps. (Great collection and really good technical support!)
My maps didn't work after a restart of DP11 because the outputs kept defaulting to Eb20, which is not a real pitch.

In the Preferences in DP, changing the Pitch Display to middle C = C4 does trigger the articulation map bug. But it only reliably showed up after I quit DP and then opened it again. I'm fairly sure I saw it change before my eyes a few times, but I don't know how I triggered it. (I can’t believe the old C3/C4 debate is still causing problems!) I'm firmly in the middle C = C4 camp, for what it is worth.

The good news is that changing the pitch display back to middle C = C3 and then quitting DP will fix the problem for the next time you use DP. I also reloaded the articulation map for the instrument(s) just to be extra safe.

MOTU did track this down (Kudos!) and is promising to have this fixed for the next update.

I also recently acquired the version corresponding to Digital Performer and am satisfied with it; however, something catches my eyes.
