[b]Set Play On Pass[/b] (compatible with Sibelius 5, 6, and 7) This plugin can quickly toggle, turn OFF, or turn ON any or all of the eight ";play on pass"; checkboxes found in the Properties > Playback window. Unchecking ";play on pass"; is often necessary for certain text that would otherwise trigger VDL-related actions, and for certain notes (like the release notes on roles) that may be desired in notation but not for playback.
[b]Rehearsal Recordings Plugin[/b] (compatible with Sibelius 6 and 7) I experimented with this last year but didn't have much luck. It sounds very promising, though, so I need to spend more time with it.
[b]Fixed Plugins Shortcut plugin[/b] (compatible with Sibelius 4, 5, 6, and 7, for Windows only)
As you may know, Sibelius plugins are assigned numerical values associated with keyboard shortcuts, meaning that if you assign a keyboard shortcut to a plugin, then install an additional plugin, your keyboard shortcut will have to be reassigned to continue to function. This plugin allows the simple assignment of up to 26 plugins to a quick-access shortcut menu. So, for example, if I assign this plugin to ALT+p via Sibelius' standard shortcut menu, I then have access to 26 shortcut slots, one per letter in the alphabet. So far I've assigned a few plugins that I use routinely, such as Reduce, Set Play On Pass, and Crescendo/Decrescendo. So all I have to do to reduce something is copy the material to be reduced, click on a staff where I am reducing to, press ALT+p, press ";r";, and press ENTER.
