Good evening everyone,
I'm writing to see if others are experiencing this problem or if it's an issue local to my setup. I hadn't noticed the issue until recently because I've only recently added expression pedals to my organ. Right now I'm experiencing the following circumstances:
If the expression pedals are open, notes play at full volume (as expected). If, however, expression pedals start open, notes are held, expression pedals closed, then expression opened again the notes held do not return to full volume. The held notes return to about 85% of full. Then, if expression pedals are not moved, releasing held notes and immediately depressing them again causes the volume to jump up to 100% again for the newly played notes.
Since the pedals have not been moved, it seems to me that GrandOrgue is accurately reading the position of the expression shoes but is not correctly modifying the audio output until the next time notes are pressed. The effect is barely noticeable with only a few stops, but when playing full organ it is clearly noticeable. The audio output meter in GrandOrgue confirms what I hear as the bars clearly move further to the right when the keys are released and then pressed again.
Most of the time, this is not a problem but it makes a difference in certain situations. Is this a known problem? If so, I apologize for bringing it up again. If it is not a known issue, can others say if this is happening on their machines as well?
I'm running revision 1125 on a 64-bit windows 7 machine. If other information would be useful to know, just ask.
Thanks, as always for all the work you do on GrandOrgue. It does not go unnoticed and is certainly appreciated!
Take care,
Matt
