Hello everyone,
I am using Cubase Elements 14,
A MIDI track with Halion Sonic 7 is ignoring the All Notes Off messages.
An external program is sending MIDI notes for a pad (sustained) sound, this works fine, but when it stops, the All Notes Off message is sent for all tracks, as can be seen in the MIDI monitor in Cubase. But the soud from the Halion Sonic does not stop. It has to be stopped manually every time.
Hi Henri et al
Have the same problem with Cubase 14 and sustained MIDI notes from a Spitfire String Library. I have also imported some MIDI from Dorico 5. These notes cannot be stopped entirely with the All Notes Off message - but I have discovered that if you duplicate the offending track the sustain stops - and then simply delete the doubled track.
Not great for my workflow.
Hi there and welcome to the forums!
How are you sending the All Notes Off message? Is it via the menu command MIDI > Reset?
Just a thought: There is also a midi message “all sound off”…
Hi mlib and Elien
I set a key combination of Cntr shift P to define Send All notes Off Message
From what I can tell, that command sends CC121 (Reset All Controllers) and CC123 (All Notes Off) to all available devices, on all 16 MIDI Channels, in a project. If your particular instrument doesn’t respond to All Notes Off it is likely because the developers of that instrument did not implement a response to it. I would contact Spitfire in this case.
The Band in a Box software is sending the MIDI notes. In Band in a Box, the play command starts sending the notes, and the stop program sends an “All notes off” MIDI message to all channels. I can all the MIDI events coming in correctly in the MIDI monitor in Cubase, but the sustained notes do not stop in Cubase - Halion Sonic 7.
Can you please check if these MIDI messages get filtered out?
YES!! The filter was on and I just turned it off and now everything is working fine.
I did not know the existence of that filter. I wonder why the “All notes off” filter is on by default in Cubase.
Thank you
