Hello,
This is not a BIAB-specific question - it's more a MIDI piano roll question. It is extra exciting because my MIDI knowledge base is in its infancy.

I am writing a virtual instrument bass part (AmpleSound P-bass) using the MIDI piano roll in Reaper - I am playing nothing with a MIDI keyboard. Although I'm writing it in Reaper, to my uneducated eyes most DAW's piano rolls seem to operate pretty much the same. Perhaps that's not the case.

All is going well except at the very end of the song - the ending bar (#75). I want the ending bass note (C) to be struck once at the beginning of bar 75 and then ring on/die out naturally for another two full bars - maybe three. If I add MIDI bars 76, 77 and 78 (each bar with a whole C note entered) the note is picked at the beginning of each bar - which isn't the plan.

Is there a way to make an ending note sustain thru multiple MIDI bars when writing a virtual MIDI part with the piano roll?

If I'm not in the right forum with this question, please direct me where I need to be...

Thanks in advance!
