Sustain Stopping

[cbejensen]

I've noticed that if I am holding down the sustain pedal when switching tracks, the track I was sustaining (and no longer have armed) continues to sustain even when I lift my foot off the pedal. When playing live, this causes a terrible mess as the sound that's no longer supposed to be playing is still sustaining while I am trying to play a completely different part, and in order to stop that track from sustaining, I have to arm it again, then press and release the sustain pedal, which is obviously not ideal when playing live. I would like to be able to sustain a sound, then disarm that track and arm a new track before I stop sustaining that sound. Not being able to do so is a major roadblock when playing live as there are many different sounds I use in one set, and I have to flow from one to the next very smoothly.

Would anyone else like to see this change? If so, please vote yes!

Yes, this is a very silly problem. I have no idea why so such a number of people is having this issue

I never came into this situation but i agree it's annoying.
As a workaround, try this :
use a midi track as an input track. Monitor it to IN and select your keyboard.
In all MIDI tracks you want to control, use the input track as the input source. Leave them all armed.

Believe it or not I have actually found this to be somewhat useful in certain situations where I want to hold a single chord of a background pad while playing other riffs with other sounds.
