Greetings, everyone, and belated Happy New Year!

I'm a long-time BIAB user and I'm loving BIAB 2014 but I have discovered one issue that I need to learn how to deal with or perhaps request a patch for the next update.

I use BIAB as the praise band in my church; I play guitar and sing along with 3 other singers and it sounds great. I use BIAB for drums, bass, piano, B3 organ, and horns sometimes (all RealTracks, of course). On slow worship songs I almost always use strings (MIDI) instead of organ and on the final chord of the song, I allow the strings to sustain through the last held chord (by entering C... for example) but I have always entered F5 for that measure and changed the strings level by anywhere from -10 to -20 (give or take) so they won't be so loud on that last, held chord after a fairly loud final chorus. I need to do this because the other instruments (piano and bass) fade naturally but the strings do not.

However, with the new legato feature, a volume reduction on that final held chord does not affect notes that were already playing. I found I could reduce the volume in the next-to-last measure with the F5>change by... technique but the result is that the strings drop in volume too early, one full measure before the final chord. If I could somehow turn off the legato feature ONLY IN THE LAST MEASURE(S) where there is a held, final chord, that would fix it. A setting that turns the legato effect completely off throughout the entire song wouldn't be my preference as I enjoy the feature except on that last measure...

Hoping that someone knows a way to fix this,
Jim
