Stuck notes when using Sylenth, Reaktor and synths from Arturia and others
Hi there, very weird annoying problem that I believe has begun in PT 12. I like keeping all my production in PT whenever possible, and have used DDMF's Metaplugin or Blue Cat's Patchwork to load up VSTs and AUs, particularly Sylenth (especially good since Sylenth has finally gone 64bit).
Anyway long story short, since updating to 12, I'm getting constant stuck notes on Sylenth (and Spire for that matter) when those synths are on Instrument tracks via Metaplugin or Patchwork. Playback itself seems to be fine, but stopping playback will cause any notes playing on those synths at the moment I stop to be stuck forever. The only way to unstick them is to completely deactivate the Metaplugin/Patchwork instance and then reactivate again. This didn't happen in PT 11. It's almost like PT is not sending a "note off' message when stopping playback to these synths, causing them to sustain forever... This has basically rendered using these synths in Pro Tools unusable, and they are a big part of my workflow. Obviously native AAX versions would be ideal, but I don't see that happening any time soon. Anyone else see similar problems, and if so, any advice, tips or ideas? EDIT: not that I should have to, but I'll mention that these are all paid for/licensed versions of these plugins - no cracked plugin is causing this problem :) Last edited by holyspicoli; 03-03-2016 at 10:06 PM.

Re: Stuck Notes when using Sylenth/Spire through Metaplugin or Patchwork
Hi,
I'm experiencing this with U-he Diva, NI Reaktor and Arturia synths (that I know of), can't comment on MetapluginSynth with Sylenth I'm afraid! |

Re: Stuck Notes when using Sylenth/Spire through Metaplugin or Patchwork
Ugh that's annoying. Are you using all of those as AAX plugins directly in Pro Tools, or are they bridged as VSTs/AUs with some other plugin?
Seems to be a problem with most oscillator based synths, as opposed to "ROMpler"-style, sample based synths (a la Kontakt, Nexus, Xpand, etc). I haven't had this problem with those. Big bug that should be fixed asap IMHO... |

Re: Stuck Notes when using Sylenth/Spire through Metaplugin or Patchwork
I’ve been having the same problem in 12.4 OSX recently with Sylenth in Blue Cat, Monark (NI) using Komplete Kontrol , various others
I’ve made a blue cat patch with sylenth second and plogue VST first with it’s midi monitor on and passing midi through to Sylenth - no direct host midi to Sylenth octave pattern, this hangs note in 12.4, i've tested other musical patterns, hangs every few plays or randomly 0062EC00 03E 90 3C 40 01 Note On (C5) 00631400 34F 80 3C 00 01 Note Off(C5) 00631400 34F 90 30 40 01 Note On (C4) 00634000 050 80 30 00 01 Note Off(C4) 00634000 260 90 3C 40 01 Note On (C5) 00635C00 000 B0 7B 00 01 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B1 7B 00 02 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B2 7B 00 03 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B3 7B 00 04 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B4 7B 00 05 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B5 7B 00 06 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B6 7B 00 07 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B7 7B 00 08 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B8 7B 00 09 CC(123) 00635C00 000 B9 7B 00 0A CC(123) 00635C00 000 BA 7B 00 0B CC(123) 00635C00 000 BB 7B 00 0C CC(123) 00635C00 000 BC 7B 00 0D CC(123) 00635C00 000 BD 7B 00 0E CC(123) 00635C00 000 BE 7B 00 0F CC(123) 00635C00 000 BF 7B 00 10 CC(123) 00636C00 399 80 30 00 01 Note Off(C4) all midi notes off in PT reports the cc 123 (all notes off) but note still hangs I also get hangs with setup on aux track controlled by midi track so does not seem to be a instrument track issue i’ve also got this in 10.3.8 opening this test session, so maybe we need to look elsewhere then just latest 12.4 |

Re: Stuck Notes when using Sylenth/Spire through Metaplugin or Patchwork
Yupp yupp!
Getting the stuck note i PT with NI Monark in Reaktor (AAX), most Arturia Synths (AAX) and Spire (both AAX and when hosted in NI Komplete Kontrol as VST). Can't speak for any other VI's i'm afraid. Been like this since i can remember. No idea how to fix it. |

Re: Stuck Notes when using Sylenth/Spire through Metaplugin or Patchwork
I have the same problem with Native Instruments stuff! All legit AAX, Reaktor as well is the one causing the issues.... damn. Glad it's not just me. PT 12.4, I have to re-open the reaktor window, and click on the note that has sustained. Then it stops. Can't figure out what makes it start again, playing the same note doesn't seem to work. I ended up stopping the sustain like that, then commiting the track in the end. Not exactly a great compositional work flow

Re: Stuck Notes when using Sylenth/Spire through Metaplugin or Patchwork
So is this something that needs to be brought to Avid's attention? Seems like it's multiple synths from reputable manufacturers with this problem. And it's one that has real-world ramifications. I was in a writing session three days ago that I had started in Pro Tools, and the stuck note problem was so intrusive to me and my collaborators that I ditched the session and went to Studio One to keep working. If I were a business I'd want to know that about my products...

Re: Stuck Notes when using Sylenth/Spire through Metaplugin or Patchwork
Yep the latest Sylenth update fixed the issue. Whew! Seems like other synths have this problem so hopefully those developers get to the bottom of it.
