Generally a solo instrument is more tricky to adjust then ensembles.įor strings a simple layering with normal sustains works quite well. The procedure for changing the duration with D+ and D+ is similar to that for changing the attack location of a note with A+ and A+. OR - Type D+ or D+ key one or more times to increase or decrease the duration of the note. I know this is no "realtime" workaround, because you have to adjust the overlap between the notes and you also have to set the right volume level level for the two miditracks. Type the equivalent keyboard commands for the buttons, such as '81d' for dotted eighth note. Ofcourse it also works with normal sustains.

Especially for solo instruments it helps to get the right phrasing. I often exchange the starting note (using the ghost key function) with dynamic samples, same with ending notes. Therefore my personal workaround is to use a second miditrack to combine perf-legato samples and starting and endnotes. The starting notes (which are no legato samples) are longer.īut to trigger a starting note needs a little break between the two notes. The note durations of the legato samples are not longer.

Maybe there is some concept that I need clarified about the legato samples and how to get the best performance. Even if I extend the 2nd note's length in the midi editor, it still remains short on playback (which means that certain midi parameters are note directly related to the performance?). Q: How do I get the legato phrasing, AND control the note duration for the 2nd note? I have experimented with legato threshold and release time in the Legatool, but to no avail.

I am finding that depending on how i play the phrase on the keyboard, I get (at least) 2 different sounding results:ġ) When I play the C5 and keep that key held down as i play the next note (A4) I get a very nice horn-esque legato slur from the C to the A, however, as i release the C and continue to hold down the A, the A the note falls off after one beat, not holding it's full value.Ģ) if I play the C5 and then release it immediately before I play the A4, then the A4 keeps it's proper half note duration, but I don't get that legato phrase between the C and A. The simplified 1 bar phrase is 2 half notes in succession: C5 to A4. I am performing a 2 note phrase (at bpm 60) with the performance horn instrument (HO_perf-leg_mf). I'm going to ask this question with a real music example because I don't know any other way to ask clearly.
