Synthmaster 2.5.4.152-still problems with using sustain pedal

[dathyr1]

Hello Bulent and all Synthmaster users,

I just now installed the latest version in subject line. You seemed to have fixed the arpeggio problem of stuck repeated notes but I am now seeing another weird thing while playing some of the guitar patches and the sustain pedal. This could probably be with any patch. Guitars was the first ones I tried.

When I have the sustain pedal "held down" and play these arpeggio triad chords in both hands--- Am, G, and F then back up F ,G, and Am-----, in that sequence over and over(lets say about 3-6 times fairly quickly), Now I go to play other notes either higher or lower on the keyboard and they will not play a sound when I go to play them. All this is with the pedal held down all the time. Its not all notes that go silent just some of them. This is kind of hard to explain what I am seeing and kind of weird.

Once I lift the sustain pedal, all the notes will play.

So, all the notes in the Chords i play above work fine with the pedal down, but certain notes I have never played during my chord sequence seem to get muted or no sound when I do go to play them while keeping the pedal down. Dont know if this is a random thing on the silent notes or not.

So do this test:
1 hold the sustain pedal down
2 do the chord sequence mentioned above-keep sustain pedal held down
3. now try to play other notes on the keyboard, still keep sustain pedal held down.
summary: you will see some notes will not play. That is what I am seeing.

I should be able to play any notes over and over or any single notes with the sustain pedal down. At least it works on all my other VST plugins.

Never seen this in previous versions of Synthmaster, but there were other problems then with the sustain pedal.

I see a couple other things, but just want to talk about this one right now.

I hope I have explained this good enough.

take care,

Update on my original post.

Seems my problem - this only does this on one patch right now till I might come across any others. I went back and played several different patches and all seem to be working fine.

The patch I found is a guitar patch. GT Spanish Nylon BT

The other guitar patches in that series dont have the problem.

I see some other small things going on, but I think someone else has brought that up in another post.


hope that helps,

DaveT
