Fix Tied Notes Live Playback

Version 01.02.01
Added 01 Aug 2005 (last updated 17 Jun 2015)

For use with Sibelius 3.x, Sibelius 4, Sibelius 4.1, Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x

This plug-in processes notes and corrects problems with the Live Playback Original Duration in tied notes. If the Live Playback duration in a tied note has been set such that it ends either before or after the notational duration (i.e., if the note is a quarter note/crotchet, and Live Playback only plays for an eighth note/quaver), the note can playback incorrectly (the following note it is tied to will play with a separate attack). To prevent that, the Live Playback duration is set to the notational duration less the Live Start Position in those cases, so the tied note playback stops exactly at the end. A log file of changes will be written.

Set Play On Pass

Version 01.15.10
Added 06 Oct 2007 (last updated 03 Mar 2024)

For use with Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x

__(Edited on 12 February 2024 to work differently. See notes from that date.) Toggles (default), disables, or enables all 8 passes of Play on Pass for any selected objects. To change the option from Toggle, run the plugin with no selection. It will change *all* selected objects, so it will often be useful to filter just the items you want to change. __ Updated January 15, 2008 to add a "Show dialog" flag to the dialog so it can be run with the dialog always visible. The flag is on by default so it will always appear the first time the plugin is run. __Updated 31 January 2012 to give options for individual passes. __Updated 21 May 2016 so you can cancel the dialog when run with no selection and the setting changes will still be recorded. __Updated 10 March 2021. Version 01.13.00. Dialog layout changes. Removed progress bar. Do Not Show Dialog will reset at the start of each Sib session. __Updated 12 February 2024. Version 01.15.00. This version just has 8 checkboxes to set on and off, as in the Inspector. The old version had On/Off/Toggle buttons that really did not make a lot of sense. I think this is simpler, clearer, and more useful. As before, there is a Do Not Show Dialog checkbox, and the dialog will always appear if you run the plugin with not selection. Checkbox settings are remembered over Sibelius sessions. __Updated 3 March 2024. Version 01.15.10. Change to disable debug trace and to refresh inspector.

Loop Selection

Version 01.15.00
Added 24 Mar 2008 (last updated 07 Mar 2014)

For use with Sibelius 4, Sibelius 4.1, Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x

This plugin will let you loop playback by adding marker and jump text to the start and end of the selection. If you play the score within the markers, playback will loop. The default target name is the first selected bar number.

By default, marker/jump text only jumps to the start or end of a bar; to loop partial bars, select the text and turn off \\\'Jump at bar end\\\' in the Property Window Playback pane.

In Sibelius 5, the plugin can delete any marker or jump text in the selection or in the score.

To make it more obvious which notes will loop, you may want to add a highlight or color to the selected notes.

Updated November 24, 2008 to fix problems deleting hidden markers and all markers in score.
