Since upgrading to v.2.2.10.300 of VST Live 2, I am experiencing random stuck MIDI notes. Using “MIDI monitor” to see what is going on, I see that VST Live is randomly not receiving MIDI off events. I did not have this issue on my previous version of VST Live which was v.2.1.21.236. The issue occur…

Hi @musicullum , i explained my workflow in details here: 2.2.63 Writing Midi Problems . The issue (my issue) appears only when I edit a midi track. Not while playing ‘live’ keyboard, and also not while “just playing” Tracks,Songs, etc. Only in the workflow of editing midi tracks, i could reproduce …

[image] looneytoonz: Given that VST Live behaves normally using Keystage Serial MIDI I/O, but shows missing note-off problems using Keystage USB-MIDI That is more than weird. We don’t know where MIDI is coming from. The Operating System is responsible for managing drivers, which deliver MIDI…

Thanks for the note @Musicullum . I am completely convinced this is not an equipment cabling issue on my side - I have swapped out many different USB cables, changed USB routings to computer, even bought a 2nd Keystage controller! The only thing I haven’t done is used a different Mac computer. My…

Hi @Musicullum . I just tried VST Live 2.2.72 - Unfortunately, I’m still seeing the same behavior with Keystage and missing Note-Offs. Sorry, wish your other bug fix would have fixed this issue. Let me know if I can help debug. Thanks, Kevin L

We cannot yet get hold of a Keystage. But if behaviour is really different with serial MIDI, and USB MIDI, there is certainly something we can’t do anything about until we get the device. It’s kind of you to provide tips for programming :slight_smile: Unfortunately things are much more complicated.…

We may be able to test a keystage later. Meanwhile try again with the next version, it may have been fixed elsewhere. Let us know how it works out (or not) then.

Still have note-hangs in 2.2.73. Kevin L
