I have had an issue with some midi's getting cut off abruptly at the end, when rendering the mix. Short of adding a note in the event list at a point past the last note, is there a way of having the rendering always add a pad. This is has been an option in BIAB's rendering menu. Thanks!
Once the parts are generated, and if they're MIDI, have you tried using Piano Roll and dragging your note(s) so that they are extended for a longer time?
In relation to a Pad sound, a pad Realtrack can be generated on any track.
If you want a MIDI pad sound, try changing the style to one that has a suitable pad sound. Under the Generate menu, you can then choose to generate the MIDI/String track which is typically the pad sound.
Is this what you mean or am I not understanding your post properly?
P.S. Before changing the style in your original song, save it. This will allow you to easily get back to the original. Now save the song with a slightly altered name and use this version for playing around with.

Yes. I have done that...
But I was just looking for blank pad at the end of the render, as is available with BIAB, instead of an abrupt cutoff that doesn't let the reverb ring out.
I see what you mean now. I didn't fully appreciate what you were saying. Sorry.
Just checking... do you have "2 bar ending" active? It's on the main screen. Directly above "Bar offset". That should let a Realtrack pad simply face away. I'm not sure about the MIDI ones.

Yes, it's been checked. But I am dealing with MIDI tracks in this case, and it consistently cuts abruptly at the last note, when rendered. Thanks!
I usually pick one audio track and record a few seconds of silence at the end of the song. Then the song tends to play thru and let the effects continue working until that track ends.
In my mind the program hits the End Of File message and everything shuts off .. so simply extending the EOF has worked for me here.
It lets delay/reverb and other time based effects empty their buffer from the last not played.
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome Make your sound your own!

That works, but it's tedious. Really quite strange that there isn't a check box to pad the end for rendering, like in BIAB.
