    Hi! I have a problem with my VI Choir. I work with a project where tenor and basses shall hold a long note for 7 bars. The song have tempo 70. But after 3 bars tenors and basses stop sining. Why does this happend and how can I solve this problem? Regards Ketil

     The choir SUS patches are looped, so they should sustain for ever,  which articulation are you using?

    Maybe it is a polyphony issue, it defaults to 128, should be enough, but try increasing it to see if it helps.

    Hi! I got the same problem again. 

    I'm trying to do a recording of Barbers Agnus Dei for Choir, but the problem is that the very long notes cuts off after a bar and half. I realy don't understand why! I have load the voice serveral times and make new fresh setup, but that dosen't effect the cut off notes. 

    Can some please help me with this problem?

    Hello Ketil, 

    Did you try with the sustains yet? I believe you might be using the legato-patches...

    Hi!

    I use the patch "SUS" for all soprano, alto, tenor and bass.
    I tried with a new score SATB and 5 bars with whole notes tied over 5 bars. The same happend. After bar 2 the sound disappears. I don't know why?!

    Have you tried just playing the SUS patches from within VI or from a midi keyboard? If they sustain when you do that, then you know the it's not an issue with the patches. I'm guessing your notation program or DAW is sending out a command to change the patches, sending a note off message when it shouldn't, or there is a MIDI routing issue where the tenor and bass are being sent the wrong track.

    Good luck,

    Michael

    Hi! 

    I think the problem occures when I use the strech mode. 

    I made a new instace and everything wnt well, but after I sterched the soprano voice the sound stoped after some seconds.

    Hello, 

    Please send instructions on how to reproduce this, including tech specs (OS, used versions of software): support@vsl.co.at

    Add a short link to this thread, maybe even send the affected time-stretched patch. 

    Best,
