mixer subgroups, sound change and midi export
These are minor, but a little irritating.
1 The arco subchannel controls the group volume. I suppose the only way around this would be to have a separate bus. Yet, it is the only one that can't set its own level without setting the other two. But then it struck me. That is odd, since that is what the group volume does! So, it is redundant.
2 A slight annoyance. Export midi makes channel splits from tremelo, and not from arco. I think this is because of order of the midi programs 044---> 046 dictates what splits from what. In any case, it doesn't follow the logic of Msc. Just a minor detail.
Ok Thanks. Asked me for a forum. I chose "general discussion" and bang! I hope this doesn't appear to you the way it appears to me.

I absolutely agree with you, but... Why you used a very big size characters? ??? It is not necessary, please!!!
Hmm, are you really finding that changing the arco volume affects pizz? It doesn't for me. The main slider moves, but the others don't, and that's what I hear in the playback too. if you are findinging otherwise, can you attach your score?
The formatting of your post is due to starting a line with #, which is "markdown"-speak for heading.

Not sure what happened with the markdown sign or how it triggered the subject size in content area. I could not get rid of it in time. ( I think you are allowed a little time or some number of edits to dispose of it but I missed the window of opportunity.) In any case, the arco channel moves the main slider (group volume) without, as you say. affecting the other two channels. But by moving the main slider (group volume), you then have to return the main slider back to where it was. This causes the other two channels to "snapback" to a reset position. In that sense, it affects the other two channels.
