I'm having trouble that I havent encountered before. I am writing a cadence for battery only. Everything is going smooth and then I get to one bar that throws me off. Here's what I have. 2 triplets in the tenor part at the beginning of a measure with only a bass unison on 1 of that bar. The sound I am using is rimshots on drum 2. The 1st triplet sounds like it is 100 yards away, and the next triplet begins to come in by the last two notes. Now I know I have the computer to do it because I have done full ensemble work before. The rest of the cadence sounds fine. I just dont know why successive rimshots have thrown it off. Also here's one more thing. When I enter the rimshots on the midi keyboard, the sound dies as I keep pressing the key. I'm still keeping the velocity the same. I even went into Finale 2003's midi controller and tried to do it from there, but it still did the same thing. What am I missing?

Are you loading your VDL2 sounds into Kontakt 2 by chance?

This is a small bug in how K2 interprets the programming of VDL2 (which is originally in 1.5.3 format) that will be fixed in a future library update. For people [i]not[/i] using Kontakt 2, this problem doesn't occur. Fortunately in the meantime, there's an easy workaround to fix it.
On the instrument that's giving you problems, click the ";edit"; (wrench) button. Click the ";group editor"; button. Click the ";edit all groups"; button so that it's bright red. Scroll down to the section that says ";modulation";. Find the ";retrigger"; button, and click it either two or three times so that it's bright yellow.
This should fix the problem. If so, I'd suggest re-saving the multi so you don't have to do this every time you open the file.
