when i put a crescendo or dim in anything i write and there is an accent there it doesn't play the accents. how do i manually set velocities and what ever i need to do to have it play accents with cresc's and dim's

also... why dosnt it play accents > or ^ with a dynamic level of forte and above? lol

im a simple man so any help would be greatly appreciated.

That depends on what you set your velocity to. It has a max of 127 which should be more than loud enough. As far as editing the accents to play back louder during a crescendo, you need to go in and set each velocity manually. Click on the accent and press CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+L and edit it there, or you can view the velocity settings manually and edit it from there.

Another good place to check would be the Sibelius forum.

CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+L

doesn't work... what is supposed to come up?

Try it again. It brings up a Live Playback dialog box. Make sure that Transform Live Playback is checked in the Play menu.
