Hey!

I have an issue with the playback of a grace note combined with an accent.
In percussion world we talk about the secondary & primary note with flams.
If i enter a grace note and an accent on the primary note (quarter note for example), it won't playback the quarter note, but only the grace note.
If i enter only a grace note (and no accent) then he plays the rhythm correctly.
But my goal is to playback the flam and the accented quarter note.

Could someone help me?

ps. grace note combined with a diddle on the primary note got the same problem.

I can't reproduce that problem. Maybe you can attach a small .musx file exhibiting the problem.

I think it's because Human Playback has a hard-wired notion of what an accent is. It looks like maybe you've added a custom accent to use the Engraver font. I don't know why it's not playing back the accented note when combined with a grace note (or it could be it's not playing the grace note--hard to tell). If you change the playback effect in your custom accent to this, which is what the default accent has, then it seems to work:

This helpt!
In combination with another insight, which is about the smart playback through the TG tool.
Smart playback is very handy when it coms down to playback diddles.

Thanks a lot!
