Title: Transposition feature doesn't work
Post by: kokocipher on 2012-03-06 01:23 AM
NWC 1.7 worked wonders with its transposition feature for staff, but now I just got 2.5 and it no longer works.  Also, highlighting is a lot slower, and I miss the insert instrument by GM numbers instead of instr. tree.  Can I have my money back?

Update: transposition works, but you have to set a new instrument to get the effect.

After hitting F2, under "Midi Patch Instructions", be sure "Send Patch" is checked and change the next window to anything you would like between 0 and 127.  For an example, please look at patchtst.nwc (http://nwc-scriptorium.org/helpful/patchtst.nwc) at scriptorium.org (http://nwc-scriptorium.org/helpful.html#NWCFiles).

Using 'Predefined Instruments' is optional. You can simply put the instrument number into 'Send Patch'

Almost everything from v1.7 is still in v2.5  It may take a while to find some things. You are jumping over 10 years of updates. A bit like moving from Win 3.1 to Vista or IE3 to IE8

NOT TRUE.
Please remember to declare the key if the original is in C maj.

Edit on 2012-03-08:The transpose "will not work" = "still sound the same as before"
WHEN
"Update staff play back transposition" is checked, as in the attached picture.

If all this information still does not help, please attach a copy of the offending  file, and explain what you intended to do.

Not so.
