Sequencer - Recording Punching In - Can't Stop Sustain

Post by k_sac »

I have a weird problem. I record an entire song using Quick Record. I want to re-record a few measures to fix a track. I use the AutoPunch feature. No matter what I do - I get unwanted very lengthy sustain in playback. I don't hear it when I record, only when I play back. If I do a fresh track for just that one section, the problem does not occur. I delete the measures in the main track with the original mistake. When I try to copy the one section from the fresh track into the original track, the same problem occurs - I get unwanted lengthy sustain.

The problem is more prevalent with different voices. Not so bad with piano, but a real problem with strings.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? It's driving me crazy. This keyboard has so many anomalies I have to work around, I am beginning to wonder if I made a mistake by purchasing it. It's wearing me down.

Did you use a sustain pedal during any of the recording?
i.e. is there a sustain "ON" that it not being turned OFF?

No - no sustain during recording. I even unplugged it to try and stop it from happening.
