NOTION Music Forum

Hi all,

Couldn't find this in the FAQ or in the forum so here goes.

I have Garritan Personal Orchestra installed on my Notion machine. Unfortunately, when I go to choose any Garritan sounds, they don't sound out during playback. Notion instruments work just fine. (altho I have not tested any of the orchestral instruments)

Any ideas? I'm at a complete loss.

Thanks

Joe

Does the Aria instance with Garritan samples load? I assume that you get Garritan to work in other programs, correct?

Joe, you have to manually insert the GPO sounds in the ARIA player slots.

Click on a staff where you have chosen to use GPO, press Ctrl-I ("I" as in "Instrument"). You should see the ARIA player interface appear. Then populate the slots with sounds (at least the first one). You should then hear.

On a related note, I haven't used GPO much since I got Notion because there are no OOTB presets. Does anyone have presets for GPO?

Not sure what this

is about.

You can add GPO instruments which load automatically and there are out of the box presets for GPO (albeit, designed by someone who isn't too familiar with GPO). You can try my custom rules for GPO if you'd like (viewtopic.php?f=24&t=1285).

I'm not an expert with GPO, but I think the custom rules are an improvement compared to the "out of the box" rules.
