Hello everyone!
I've been using the Multi-Point-Controller to achieve
"Swing" for eighth notes like this.
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.75,Single)
|TimeSig|Signature:Common
|MPC|Controller:tempo|Style:Absolute|TimeRes:Quarter|SweepRes:1|Pt1:0,126|Pt2:1,126|Pt3:1,126|Pt4:1,126|Pos:-6
|Rest|Dur:8th
|MPC|Controller:tempo|Style:Absolute|TimeRes:Quarter|SweepRes:1|Pt1:0,252|Pt2:1,252|Pt3:1,252|Pt4:1,252|Pos:8
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Bar
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End
But after the installation of NWC V2.75, this doesn't
work properly.
Successive eighth notes' duration won't be
correct 2:1.
How can I fix it?
Hi Yoshikazu,
I haven't looked to your particular problem because I'm going to suggest an easier way to achieve a swing approximation:
See:
https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=2335.msg50038#msg50038
An example in practice - swinging along at 180bpm for 168 bars:
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.75,Single)
|TimeSig|Signature:4/4
|Tempo|Base:Quarter Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:7
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Bar|Style:LocalRepeatOpen
|Tempo|Base:Eighth Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:-8
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Tempo|Base:Quarter Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:7
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Tempo|Base:Eighth Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:-8
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Tempo|Base:Quarter Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:7
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Tempo|Base:Eighth Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:-8
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Tempo|Base:Quarter Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:7
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Tempo|Base:Eighth Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:-8
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Tempo|Base:Quarter Dotted|Tempo:180|Pos:7
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Bar|Style:LocalRepeatClose|Repeat:168

Try:
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.75,Single)
|TimeSig|Signature:Common
|MPC|Controller:tempo|Style:Absolute|TimeRes:Quarter|SweepRes:1|Pt1:0,126|Pt2:1,125|Pt3:1,126|Pt4:1,125|Pos:-6
|Rest|Dur:8th
|MPC|Controller:tempo|Style:Absolute|TimeRes:Quarter|SweepRes:1|Pt1:0,252|Pt2:1,251|Pt3:1,252|Pt4:1,251|Pos:8
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th
|Rest|Dur:8th

I see the change, but why is it necessary?
I don't know. Arguably, it makes no sense to change the tempo to the tempo's current value, but more would need to be done to determine the current tempo than just looking at the prior offset within the MPC.
Pitch Bend is similar. In the following clip, the first MPC causes 2 events and the second MPC causes 3:
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.75,Single)
|Instrument|Name:"Flute"|Patch:73|Trans:0|DynVel:10,30,45,60,75,92,108,127|Pos:10
|MPC|Controller:pitch|Style:Absolute|TimeRes:Quarter|SweepRes:32|Pt1:0,16383|Pt2:1,16383|Pt3:0,8192|Pos:6
|Note|Dur:Whole|Pos:0^
|Bar
|MPC|Controller:pitch|Style:Absolute|TimeRes:Quarter|SweepRes:32|Pt1:0,16383|Pt2:1,16352|Pt3:0,8192|Pos:6
|Note|Dur:Whole|Pos:0

Thanks a lot Lawrie and Rick!
Lawrie's way is great because it can be easily done
from overall tempo.
And yes, Rick's way did work even though I still don't
understand why!
I'm going to give amendments to older files by using
one of these methods.
Thanks again.
