Roland Juno Gi - Sibelius Sound Set User Manual | 14
An important aspect of preferred sound assignments is the use of wildcard characters in
the sound IDs that are selected. Using the solo violin example, the complete rule is:
For the sound ID: strings.violin.*
prefer this device: My Plugin
While it’s the use of wildcards that makes Preferred Sounds so exible, each rule should
be evaluated to see what eect it may have on other sounds. In this case, not only has
the solo violin sound been assigned, because of the wildcard character, violin section
sounds have also been assigned to this device. If the violin section sound should play
from a dierent device than the solo violin sound, a second rule is required:
For the sound ID: strings.violin.ensemble.*
prefer this device: My Other Plugin
is second, and more specic, rule overrides the broader rule created previously al-
lowing violin section sounds to play from a dierent device. Keep this in mind while
assigning Preferred Sounds rules and you’ll be able to target sounds correctly.
