Mouse touch produces wrong note

• Mar 12, 2025 - 03:10

If I click on either a euphonium or tuba note with the mouse, it plays a note half a step higher than indicated. However, when the entire ensemble plays, it sounds just fine.
I've tried tying those notes over to the next measure, and they sound correct coming out of the ensemble. But after the playing stops, I click the notes with my mouse, and they sound wrong again. It's kind of baffling.
I can deal with this, I guess, but it would be a lot easier if everything worked correctly.

Interesting. Pitches are correct on my system. I checked with a tuner. Have you tried different dynamics? Or select the euphonium measure and hit R? And/or re-write the measure in a third measure?

It's driving me crazy. I tied it over to the next measure and played a few notes close to it after that. Same results. Played after the ensemble chord, they sound okay, but if I click with the mouse individually, they're out of tune—almost a half-step low. The euphonium is fine now. I just have to remember to be careful of any solo passages for tuba which are rare anyway.

Actually, a real band is going to be playing it, so why am I concentrating on this one tiny problem? Arrrrgghhhh

As in Control panel>Sound>advanced settings? While you are there, un-check exclusive mode.
I would think that if the khz setting changed the pitch, it would change it for everything. Playback and note selection.
I also have a Scarlett Solo. I used to need it when MU4 first came out. I changed kHz all the time. Default settings on the Scarlett where very high. Much higher than 48,000. MU4 wouldn't run very well at 128,000. But it never changed the pitch.
But MU4 runs well on my new computer. And actually, not too bad on my older ones with improvements to the software. So I don't use the Scarlett much any more.
