03 House Styles
A majority of our sample library integrations include House Style files in the .lib for-
mat. These files contain additional settings such as playback dictionary entries, custom
instrument staves, and percussion mappings. House Styles are version-specific, mean-
ing they are designed for a specific version of Sibelius. When included, there will be a
minimum of three .lib files in this folder.
04 Playback Configurations
The Playback Configurations folder contains preset playback configurations that define
sounds and assign channels. They are generally included as a way of reducing setup
time for large sample libraries that are not able loaded automatically, and when custom
programming or simulated autoload is used in an integration. Playback configurations,
like sound sets, are XML files and will often be separated by operating system (Mac/
Windows) and plugin format (VST/AU).
05 Manuscript Templates
Included as an alternative to manually configuring new scores, the manuscript paper
templates can be selected during score creation to save some time. These files are in-
cluded for all packages that contain House Styles, and are likewise version-specific.
06 Patches
Sometimes it's necessary to re-program all or part of a sample library to achieve the best
integration. We may also include preset instrument and multi files, often in packages
that contain playback configurations, to reduce setup time and provide a comprehen-
sive starting template. Any such instrument programming, multi, or preset is included
in the Patches folder.
07 Additional Resources
Files that don't fit into folders 01-06 are included in the Additional Resources folder.
There is no specific file type or purpose for files this folder, so if present in your sound
set package it's best to refer to Section 2.3 - Files for information about what the files
in this folder are and how they are meant to be used.
08 Previous Versions
In cases where an update would not be backwards compatible (e.g., due to changes in
the library patches or programming), we may include the previous version files in the
sound set package. The files in the Previous Versions folder are separated first into sub-
folders by version number and within that folder structured in the same 01-07 format
as the primary (current) sound set files.
