Happens a lot when I'm working with imported MIDI files.

"Panic / All Notes Off" does not work, either as a menu selection or a key stroke.

I have to "play" the piece to get it to start counting off from the top, then interrupt it before it starts.

Hi Mark, we suggest freezing your tracks and sending us a copy of your song and a copy of your imported MIDI file for testing. Please send to support@pgmusic.com

Yes, I'm told the bug – panic not working – has been reported to development. Thanks.

Panic ! <F12> hasn't worked for a long time. It's certainly been reported, and I hope it will be fixed following this further report.

Panic seems to work fine for me in the 2020 version. I also checked our database and did not see any previous reports about Panic not working. Either way, it has been reported now.
