Question For Cubase/FL/Reason etc Users

As many of you know, I use my ASR-10 for my midi controller. When I play with the sustain pedal it works, but when I record and playback the sustain isn't there. Can anyone hip me as to what I might need to enable?

I found this in Google. In the google results alot of people had a similar problem. This dude seems to explain why ...I don't know personally myself. Hope it helps.

With unisons, as with controllers, we are dealing with a historical problem. MIDI was developed without the idea that a channel might play more than one note at a time. And then, when multiple notes began to be played on a channel, the input controller was usually a keyboard. While a sustain pedal does make unisons possible with a MIDI keyboard, it still does not allow proper playing of unisons: any key number for which a note off message is more recent than the last note on message cuts off when you raise the pedal. If you merge two tracks that both contain sustain pedal messages, similar problems occur, and the results can be very unpredictable.

Thanks for the info Doberman, but does this mean that it's impossible even with another controller? It's hard to believe that no producers using VSTs also use a sustain pedal lol

There may be a work around...but that's wayyyy above my learning curve at the moment.

Maybe Sick-Wid-It knows.

well lemme just put it this way...I've owned it for about 13 years and besides being used alot, it's pretty much powered on 24 hours a day (I'm gonna stop doin that tho). And so far I've just had to replace the floppy drive once.

For sampling and sequencing tho I don't know a better board but it's all personal opinion.
