Parham, Sorry, I didn't realize that you were using the correct keystrokes. I read your message too quickly. If you do move up/down through your staves, you should be hearing the selection you land on. If you land on a note, I would expect to hear the pitch and duration of that note. If the name or instrument of the staff is not being spoken, that may be due to other factors that I can't think of. As to the instructions for sounds sets, I have all that down, but how do I change one? Let's say I already have Kontakt2 in my Sound Essentials 16 configuration and the sound set is Sibelius Sounds Essentials. Now how do I edit this configuration to create a new one that has GPO instead? I tried clicking on the "Sibelius Sounds Essentials" in the table, to the right of Kontakt2 but nothing seems to happen. Navigating in the Playback configuration dialog is definitely difficult. I wonder if I should try to learn Hot Spot Clicker and set up some scripts?

In fact, I used to use them while on Windows XP SP3 just fine. However, I thought reporting the issue on this list might alert the developers... or help me determine what is wrong. Regarding sound sets, go to the play menu, and then playback. If you have, say, a sound set using Kontakt Player 2 (like Xsample Chamber Ensemble), then you can see Kontakt Player in the first list view. Press down/up arrow or space to select it, then press shift+tab and press space on activate>> button. You're set! Now, if you alt+tab around (so the window regains focus) and press tab, you should see the sound sets, if you have put them in the right folder. Oh, and remember, the kontakt player 2 VST should be in the VST plugins folder of Sibelius Software. Good luck!
