duration-change amount limits in Notion4???
Posted: Mon Mar 11, 2013 6:38 am
...there was a limitation in version 3 that the duration-change amount would only actually work for values less than one. Has this limitation been changed to support values greater than one in newer Notion4??
So for example if I wanted to make a rule that would do some legato kind of effect by making notes overlap slightly, I could have a rule like...
if-condition="slurred-release"
duration-change amount="1.02"
...which would (if it works) increase the duration of a note to 102% of its notated length, thus causing it to overlap slightly with the beginning of the next note.
Has anybody determined if this is possible in the new version? I vaguely recall hearing something about this, but not sure if it was only somebody's feature request or if it got implemented in Notion4?
Many sample lib instuments have very effective legato samples that can be triggered by slight tiny overlaps between notes, but in the old version of Notion you had to manually adjust individual note durations one note at a time, mousiie dragging in the sequencer overlay view (very tedious, hardly worth the hassle). So I imagine folks would be keen to take advantage if a rules based approach might now be possible.
