Some of these songs have 3 point holds (for example D...) and all finish on 3 point holds, but I found to my dismay that most of the RTs I tried have no holds or, at best, what sounds like 2 point holds. This prompted me to go into the RT picker to check out the new sets and found that only 60 or so out of 202 claim to have Holds. I randomly checked about 25 or 30 and found that quite a few sounded like 2 point holds. I found a similar problem with the new Tambourine RDs, normally a hold is a shake that fades, but today, nothing. There have been a couple of threads about holds, or rather the lack of them, this year but they all seem to have bypassed PGM. Very disappointed, but always the optimist, I will pass this info to Support. Regards Vintage

If they just sample each new instrument as they go it will be worth it in the long run. Having a sample set for each RealTrack will give so many options like creating your own solo parts, any shot/hold be able to select chord voicing/octave/volume/strum speed/bass pick n strum, strum patterns...
