SynthMaster2.6: another sustain pedal bug?

[CableChannel]

Hey,

I experience another bug with the sustain pedal in SynthMaster 2.6. If I press a key, and also press the sustain pedal, then lift the sustain pedal but keep the key pressed, the note goes off. It should keep playing as long as the key is pressed of course.

Anyone experiencing this as well? It makes a particularly odd feeling when playing pads using the sustain pedal. Everytime you lift the pedal for a short moment to change chords, all notes of the previous chord go silent immediately, the release is not played.

will look into this asap and get back to you.

Hi,

is this beeing solved? It is a very annoying bug since the envelopes are ignored when the note retriggering happens, causing nasty bleeps and clips.

That's a good description of what I'm seeing also. I notice it especially when playing fast chords with a lot of pedaling and occasionally the notes cut off.

I'm using it with Sonar X1 on Windows 7, also previously on my old PC with XP.

I am still experiencing this exact same sustain pedal problem with the latest Synthmaster (2.7). It makes it impossible to use Synthmaster for live performance with a sustain pedal. Synthmaster is my favorite synth, but it is really disappointing to not be able to use it with a sustain pedal. I'm surprised this bug has been open for so long. Any hope of getting it resolved soon?

Thanks,
Matt

Strange. I just started noticing this today as well. Latest 2.7. I've been practicing for weeks and used things live and don't recall ever having this problem. Now, if I play notes, hold the sustain pedal, then any notes I hit again drop out when I lift the sustain even though I'm holding the notes on the keyboard. I have tested with two DAWs and two different keyboards and even different sustain pedals.

I've been practicing today and have two pads with an arp. It is an 8 measure sequence that starts AND ends on E. I naturally want to hit the left hand again on the downbeat of the 8 bar phrase but I end up losing all of my low end notes and messes up the arp.

I also noticed if I hit a note, have the sustain down, when I hit the note again, it has a much sharper attack than the original sound on its own.

Tested out on a 2nd computer and same problem. I don't know how I never noticed this before. Though I think I noticed it awhile back and increased the polyphony thinking this was the problem.

Very simple test case:
1) Hold down any note.
2) Press down on Sustain Pedal while continuing to hold note.
3) Press note again.
4) Lift off from Sustain Pedal while continuing to hold the note.
5) Note releases and fades away even though the note is held down.
