Default Re: Couple Notes don't play second time through

Hi,

Thanks for including the file - that's very helpful!

There are repeat instructions set but I don't think that matters.
Actually it is because it's a repeat that the particular note isn't playing. The note actually starts a tad before the barline - if you use Composer's piano roll feature, and hover your mouse over the note, you'll see that it begins at "-8", which means it begins 8 ticks before the measure actually starts. When the repeat gets played, the instructions go back to the barline, and since the note starts before the barline, it doesn't get played. We do have an "enhancement" planned that would account for such notes, which are notated in a measure but actually begin just prior to the "real" beginning of the measure.

In Composer you can fix this by doing the following:
1. Click the Piano Roll tab
2. Select the "Edit as performed" button (third button, second level)
3. Select the note(s) you need to edit
4. Click the "snap performance to as-notated" button (7th tool bar button, or use the shortcut "a + down arrow key")
That should do it. After that, the notes will sound on the repeats as well.

ttfn,
Sherry
