Just curious, are you saying you only get an F#? BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 6.5 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6; Win 11 Home.

I find it easier, but whatever works. BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 6.5 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6; Win 11 Home.

Did you try right-clicking and editing the note value? You can then specify the exact note you want.
