BUG: 5 String Banjos Do Not Playback Properly

Article ID:000066
Category:MIDI Setup and Playback
Applies to:Power Tab Editor (all versions)
Created:04-Jan-2003
Last updated:11-Feb-2005
Bug status:Open
Bug severity:Low
Revision number:6
Author(s):Brad Larsen

Symptoms

When notating a score that uses a 5 string banjo tuning, the program does not take into account the fact that the 5th string's tuning peg is anchored at the 5th fret. This leads to notes that sound 5 half steps higher than normal.

Cause

Implementation error. I was unaware the banjo was built this way.

Resolution

There is no resolution for this bug.
