| Summary | 0010134: Add an option to disable sending MIDI "All Notes Off" messages at loop start | ||||
| Description | When looping, Ardour sends "All Notes Off" (and "Damper Pedal Off") MIDI messages at the beginning of each loop. This appears to happen only for external MIDI ports. As a result, the first note in the loop is silenced – or more often prematurely cut – and any other sustained notes that that might be played across the loop are also silenced. Moreover, these messages are sent on all MIDI channels, which makes seamless playback on a synth connected to the device effectively impossible when the transport is in loop mode. It would be very useful to have an option to disable this behavior. A thread describing the issue in more detail can be found here: https://discourse.ardour.org/t/midi-track-external-synth-and-loop-region/112671 The attachment includes a dump of the above-mentioned MIDI messages. | ||||
