I don't see how sharing these files with anyone will help since it works fine on my 2016 Audiophile version, but I will be happy to do so if anyone thinks it will help.

Dave,

Sometimes it is incredibly difficult to solve problems when only typing is available. If you've ever tried to do it on a forum, then you'll know what I mean. Most times if is so much easier to have something to work with and to test.

The above being said, if I am understanding your problem, try the below, it might work.

I just tried the Acoustic Bass and it sustained for me, too, when I used the chord with three dots C... (I have Coyote WT running as my VST synth).

This is what I did.

1. Before doing anything, save your song with a new name so that you can always get back to the original if needed.

2. Go to Piano Roll view.

3. Select "Control" and then "7 Main Volume MSB" as shown on the upper image below.

4. Now follow the 'click here and drag mouse' instructions on the image.

5. By doing this, you are creating a volume envelope. When you release the mouse button, it should look like the lower image.

Now generate your song and try it. Does that help?

If the "Main Volume MSB" is not what you are after, use CTRL+Z to undo and remove the envelope and redraw it using "11 Expression MSB" and try this one.

Regards,
Noel
