It did seem quite pronounced, particularly annoying at the end of a piece where the final notes seem to change in pitch. Thanks for pointing out the relevant settings, I’ve only got the stage version for now, but I’ll have a go at measuring it to see how big the change in pitch is.</p>]]></content>
