Thanks for the replies. I note that for the latest release the scrub tool now takes note of articulations which is a big step in the right direction. However, if the now time is moved, the articulation commands are still not being sent until play or (now) the scrub tool. Hence playing the note in piano roll uses the wrong articulation, and playing more notes on a keyboard uses the old articulation and not the one active at the now time. I have worked out how to file a bug report so I have done that.

No one has answered :o( I can't believe I am the only one that finds this frustrating, having to momentarily press the space bar having moved the now time in order to get the articulations to be applied. There have been several software updates since I posted but this has still not been fixed, Maybe this forum is the wrong place to ask for this?

Articulation maps are being ignored: a) when using the scrub tool b) immediately on moving the "now" time, Is this deliberate, or is there a plan to change these?

The articulation maps are a very helpful addition, but, having done most of the hard work, Bandlab have not finished the job. At the moment (Jan 2021 update) the articulation map only works when playing back over the beginning of the articulation section. If you move the "now" time into the middle of an articulation section, the articulation is ignored and the last articulation is used. Similary, clicking on a note in piano view plays the note, but not in the articulation defined for that note but in whatever articulation was active beforehand. I hope that is fixed soon.

That's great, many thanks.

Cakewalk used to have a feature where MIDI could be played back by dragging the "now" cursor manually using the mouse, and every time it went over a MIDI note or control, it would be "played". It was very useful for looking at details of fast passages. Does this still exist, and if so how do I activate it?
