# Playback problems

 * Hello,
 * I inserted some abc examples into a page. It’s fine, I see and hear the music
   but :
    1. Sound is terrible. Is there any way to change the source of the sound?
   2. It always plays the last note heard first, from a previous abc score. I would
   use that plugin for educational purposes, so I want it to play exactly what is
   shown, so that extra note in the beginning makes it a no-go…
 * Could you help? Thank you!

 * After some tries, more details about those 2 problems :
 * (1) awful sound : happens only on long notes. Every long note starts fine but
   then has an extra “buzz” on it, which alters the sound.
 * (2) extra-note : no matter if I click on stop or not, the last played note is
   heard at the next played musical example. Not necessarily the last note of the
   example; if I stop before the end on another note, that another note is the one
   we will hear at the beginning of any new played example.

 * Hello,
    For 1, I probably can’t handle this. Internally, the audio playback is
   generated by a JavaScript lib, wildwebmidi… so it’s not the plugin’s script that
   does this. For 2, for this one there’s maybe something to see, please send your
   private link. Thanks

 * Here an example : [http://www.formation-musicale.be/testdepartitionplugin/](http://www.formation-musicale.be/testdepartitionplugin/)
   
   password : test
 * –> long notes are buzzing at the end. Can I change that? (maybe another sound
   source, if that makes any sense?)
    –> last played note is repeated when I play
   a new excerpt
 * Thank you !

 * Hello,
    OK, for 1, I think it’s more on the very last note that it happens. Otherwise
   inside the piece it’s not convincing For 2 : Only happens on Chrome and Safari
   that I just tested. Works fine on Firefox These platform dependent behaviours
   are difficult to debug, but I’ll have a look.

 * Hello,
 * I added a longer excerpt to illustrate problem 1 (buzzing note) happend on all
   long notes (whole, 4 beats), nog only in the end.
 * For 2 (playback starting with last played note): I tried on different platforms
   but not Safari (chrome and edge on my windows pc, and chrome and safari on my
   iPad Pro) but I understand now it works on Firefox. Yet I hope you could find
   a solution since the ones I tested are pretty popular. Crossing my fingers 🙂

 * As said #1 is a wildwebmidi bug. Won’t be fixed in Music Sheet Viewer.
    #2 has
   been fixed in version 3.0.3
