Mojo Horn Section - Sibelius Sound Set User Manual | 27
6.2 Playback Dictionary
e workhorse of the Sibelius playback system, the playback dictionary contains the
instructions (usually sound ID changes) that tell Sibelius which sound ID should be
used when a certain articulation, line, symbol, or text instruction is written in the
score. Using the changes dened in the dictionary, Sibelius is able to match written
techniques to the appropriate sound in a library or device, or choose the closest match-
ing sound if an exact match is not found.
e Mojo Horn Section House Style contains a signicantly modied and extended
playback dictionary in order to accommodate all of the sounds available in the Mojo
Horn Section library. In order for multiple sound sets and House Styles to be used
together, it’s essential that playback dictionary entries do not conict with each other.
As such, certain entries and denitions are present in all of our playback dictionaries
even though they may not be required for that particular library.
Our edited playback dictionaries generally do not change the behavior of Sibelius’s de-
fault entries so as to maintain compatibility with libraries that use an integration pro-
duced by another party (e.g., the bundled Sibelius Sounds library). Where exceptions
are made and default entries are modied, we research those entries, their behavior,
and use throughout most every sound set available and will only make the change if it
will not have an adverse eect on other integrations.
A full list of entries the Mojo Horn Section House Style adds to the playback diction-
ary can be found in Appendix A: Additional Playback Terms.
