Triangle parts in SibeliusHi.
I think that I have the same problem when I try to write for drums. Sometimes I
hear the sounds and sometimes don't. When I navigate in my drums part, I hear
that the volume goes down till I can't hear anything and during playback, only
if I play the score from the begining, I can maybe hear the right sounds
normally.
Well, I decided to write the drums parts with slashes and it went very well. I
know that it's not acceptable to write A triangle part with slashes and I have
no idea for you about mentioning that the triangle is open or closed' but
unfortunately, I don't find another idea.
Best regards
Nili Seidel.

Dear All,
I'm trying to write a triangle part in Sibelius. My problem is that
I can't get the choked triangle to sound reliably when I play the G#
immediately next to the A5 that yields the open triangle. If I choose the MIDI
Device option in Note Input Options, the opened triangle will play on A5 and
the closed is supposed to play on D6 according to JAWS. However, when I press
the G#5 for the closed triangle, I don't always hear anything played. If I
left arrow through music I've already inputted, I sometimes hear a partially
opened high hat where I would expect to hear a choked triangle. If I choose the
staff position option in note input options, the choked triangle will be
written as an x on G#5, not D6. However, it still won't play a closed triangle
reliably. If I alt tab out and back to Sibelius, I might hear a closed
triangle once or twice but eventually I'll get a semi-closed high hat which is
inappropriate.
I have just my laptop with an Oxygen 8, a 25 key controller with
octave plus and minus buttons one uses to alter which two octaves are available
at any given moment. My big computer and 88 key keyboard are not yet unpacked
from my house move and won't be for several weeks. If anyone has any idea as
to what might be going on, I'd appreciate any information.
Best,
Kevin
