The MIDI SuperTrack Strings never play an ending. They simply cut off abruptly (while other instruments play a 2 bar ending). They have always been this way. I have to "build" my own ending when I use them. I "put in a ticket" to support several versions ago.
Can this get fixed, please?
Example: MIDI SuperTracks in song: 2058:Strings, Rhythm CelticAir Ev 085
I know the RealCharts that are recorded on the same Yamaha acoustic/midi piano don't show any endings but this is the ending I get with 2058 below, you can also Select Custom Midi Style on another track and copy the piano roll notes from it's ending.
Well I have tested that particular one 2058 with normal 2 bar ending and also without the normal 2 bar ending and putting in the hold C... instead, followed a few bars later with G. and all seems to play and end fine.
For a short test I used only one chorus of 16 bars.
Windows 10 (64bit) M-Audio Fast Track Pro, Band in a Box 2024, Cubase 13, Cakewalk and far too many VST plugins that I probably don't need or will ever use
Pipeline - thanks for the picture. It made we realize that I stated this incorrectly - and gave me an alternative method to try.
I generally export the MIDI SuperTrack as an audio file (wav) to take to Studio One.... using the Hi-Q strings as my sound source. (For pianos I use TruePianos played in BIAB).
It is the audio exports that are chopped off (have no ending).
I would guess that that is a setting somewhere that causes that to happen and should be easily fixed for those whose choose to export audio instead of the MIDI?
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
