While inspecting a Raff symphony, I stumbled on this:
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.0,Single)
|Clef|Type:Treble
|Key|Signature:F#
|Chord|Dur:Half|Pos:b-3|Opts:Stem=Up,ArticulationsOnStem|Dur2:Whole|Pos2:-4^
|Note|Dur:Half|Pos:-2|Opts:Stem=Up
|Bar
|Chord|Dur:Whole|Pos:-4|Opts:Stem=Down,ArticulationsOnStem|Dur2:Whole|Pos2:#-2
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End
The chord does not sound because the F# and Gnat coincide. When the Gnat stops sounding, the F# does, too. Quite logical, come to think of it, but still strange. And not desirable.
Hi Rob,
umm, just which F# and Gnat was that again? :)
I see a minim Fb and semibreve E Chord (this is a unison of course) with a Gnat following (the E has a tie), a barline then a semibreve G#, E Chord (the E is the tie destination).
With my staff set to trumpet (Piano makes it hard to discern because of the normal decay) and the Yamaha softsynth selected, I hear what I expect, a sustained E with a G followed by a G# sounding.
However, with the MS Wavetable softsynth, or the Chaos 8Mb and the AirFont 340 soundfonts selected in the 2 hardware synths in my Audigy I do not hear the E after the Fb stops.
I suspect this is more a synth/midi issue rather than an NWC issue.

Ah well, that's what you get when you copy from interesting scores with clefs all over the place.
