What on Earth? Where have you been all this time? 3:20, That changed TOTALLY my playback performance. I just love you!!!!!!!

[@ilkayboraoder]

Ahaha you're welcome :) I'm glad it worked out well for you

[@bryanpoulsen8969]

They should hire you to write the manual and do tutorials for noteperformer.

[@ilkayboraoder]

Ahaha thank you my friend 😂 I'd work gladly with Wallender Instruments (Np) and its team in case they would like to collaborate with me

[@rosipetrov8366]

Totally agree!!!!!! You are a star. Subscribed. Keep feeding us knowledge. Good job, Man!

All your videos for Sibelius are wonderful. I learned a lot! But especially those for Noteperformer I found amazing!

[@carlw]

That was extremely informative. Thanks!

[@ilkayboraoder]

You're welcome and thank you very much 🤗

[@carlw]

I've set up a phrase with p --> f and all voices selected with a crescendo in between but not getting the increase in sound as you do and I have set performance to extra espressivo. ??

[@ilkayboraoder]

Hi Carl, nope, be sure that all the voices are activated for this frase and be sure that the crescendo line's shadow is not exceeding the destination dynamic. If it exceeds, NP can't read the crescendo line

[@carlw]

@@ilkayboraoder Tx Ilkay. Yes, all: p, f and crescendo have all voices selected

[@RemiBurrowes]

Thanks for this video. I still can't find how to make the articulation legato in the string section without having to write slurs everywhere. Separated notes sound staccato.

[@ilkayboraoder]

Hi, you're welcome and there are actually 2 options to do so. 1 you can write "legato" with technique text entry. Or you can use tenuto always Plugin which is installed with Noteperformer. N. B. If you use legato text remember to not use slurs for that particolar passage. And to return normal write non legato.

[@RemiBurrowes]

@@ilkayboraoder thanks for your help. How to use tenuto always ? I can't find that option.

[@ilkayboraoder]

You're welcome, it is a Plugin which has been installed to you machine while you install Np. Go to the find in ribbon or ( command search for 2021.2) and write tenuto always. Then you will see it. Contact me via Facebook if you can't do I'll send you a little video

[@RemiBurrowes]

@@ilkayboraoder Merci

[@RemiBurrowes]

@@ilkayboraoder thank you for your help. I also can't figure out how to add dynamics. Somehow when I do command E, I get a little square under the note, then I double clic on the square to make it solid, then I do right click on that solid square to get the dynamics and can finally select one... Any idea why this happens ? Thank you !

[@harrysafa]

Hi ilkay, noob question, about the fortissimo dynamics in the Brass section, Doesn't Noteperformer balance well this kind of things? I mean, How can I trust Noteperformer play the right way in a balance way in the entire orchestra? Or the example you've shown is only because you want the real player play louder? I'm curious about this. Thanks in advance, good job!

[@ilkayboraoder]

Hi, nice question, Yeap Noteperformer is very accurate and trustable. And I can confirm with many personal experience comparing with real orchestra performances. However this example is about the numbers. Np is a middle sized orchestra with 8-8-6-6-4 strings size (as Ravel's indication on his piano concerto) So! If you write mostly for this dimension of an orchestra you do not need to manupulate any further dynamics (Almost) - (You'll see it at my upcoming example - stay in tune). But if you change the dimension you have to boost the size and sounds kinda. Because 4 horns will sound much more different between 60 strings than between 30 strings. Hope this answers your question.

[@harrysafa]

@@ilkayboraoder Thanks for your answer, absolutely well explained, I'll stay tune for your next video releases!!

[@DevonDua]

You helped a lot! thanks!

[@ilkayboraoder]

You're very welcome, stay in tune because soon there will be another chapter about Noteperformer :)

[@papitay2010]

good afternoon professor... Thank you for sharing your knowledge about note performer... A specific query... What is the use of the TRIM function in the Note Performer console?... Thank you very much in advance...

[@ilkayboraoder]

You're very welcome, what is exactly trim function? Can you please explain me in more detailed?

[@aryaadami]

Hi, I am trying to write flamenco guitar, but notepeformer cannot playback guitar strumming realistically. Is there any way? Thanks!

[@ilkayboraoder]

Hi Arya, yes, there is a Strummer Plugin, I didn't have a chapter for that yet but you can read the manual to understand how does it work. Trust me it changes allllll the guitar sounding regard strums

[@aryaadami]

@@ilkayboraoder Do you mean the "Alternate Picking" guitar plugin?

[@ilkayboraoder]

Nope I mean the Strummer plugin which shipped with Sibelius. You can find it on Play Tab (Ribbon) > Plugins > Strummer. Or write it directly to "Find in Ribbon" as Strummer Plugin. It's a very funny one, You have to precise Down or Up strokes for each chords. Reach me out on Facebook, I'll send you a little demonstration video in case you can't resolve it.

[@frankpaulicki8515]

Hi Bora - good information, but a query on changing the Timpani sounds. I have copied 2 new Timps as per your example, but they produce NO sound. Any ideas please? Frank

[@ilkayboraoder]

Be sure you assign sounds to the timpani line as shown on the video.

[@aniolelseer7199]

Hi! Do we need to create a key switch staff when using VST3 libaries

[@ilkayboraoder]

Hi, you can not use Vst 3 libraries inside Sib. yet. However you don't need keyswitch staff if you use GMT2 Plugin. Soon I will come with a new Lightning Sibelius episode where I will explain it. But you can already find the informations regarding it on its official channel

[@aniolelseer7199]

@@ilkayboraoder cool! I know Noteperformer acts as the intermacy. So I was hoping I one day, we all don't have to rely on that...or s daw.

[@johnraymondsarreal2602]

hi. thank you for this wonderful video. just wondering if you could also export this sibelius file to mp3 with noteperformer quality? thanks

[@ilkayboraoder]

Thank you John, I'm glad you liked my tutorial series. Sure, depending which version of the use ofc. Sib. 8.2 and later versions can export Mp3. Choose 24 - bit 320 Kbps, this will export a good quality Mp3.

[@dudel39]

I know this is kind of late, but do you know how to go about mixing noteperformer? I keep having the issue that loud passages often sound too compressed. Also when i export the score into a videofile the audio quality is worse than when i listen to it in sibelius.

[@ilkayboraoder]

Hi, you should experience it by yourself slow by slow. But a good starting point is to reset all the mixer setting to default position by using Noteperformer's reset mixer Plugin. Video exports uses another protocol of coding. So that's why you will always get it lowered if you keep using mp4 format. You can export it as .Wav and then make a video by using .Mkv format but I don't know if it worths for the effort.
