Note Release - randomly gets stuck

[d.healey]

@Adam_G I just installed the free trial (what a horrible UI!). You're going to have to baby step me how I can get the MIDI file onto a track with the plugin because I can't figure it out.

Edit: Ah I figured it out!

[d.healey]

Yup problem confirmed here in FL Studio.

[Adam_G]

@d-healey lol sorry i just saw this, its drag and drop xD

[Adam_G]

@d-healey whats strange is it takes almost 2:30 minutes to happen but damned if it isnt consistent

[d.healey]

@Adam_G That might make sense to you, but I'm sat here trying to drag n drop the MIDI onto the arranger window. Then I'm going through the file menu (which doesn't integrate with the Mac Shell) looking for an import setting. Who'd have thought the channel list is where I need to drag the MIDI file!

So I was able to get the hanging notes once. But now it's been playing away for 5 minutes without an issue.

[Adam_G]

@d-healey yes it does that. youll hear it a couple more times intermittently. but do you now here notes dropping randomly?

[d.healey]

@Adam_G I haven't heard any notes drop

[Adam_G]

@d-healey youre right its easy for me to say, been a lifetime fl user

[d.healey]

@Adam_G I used it about 20 years ago when it was called Fruity Loops :)

[Adam_G]

@d-healey i used it back then too :anxious_face_with_sweat:

[d.healey]

It's been going 10 minutes now and I can't take any more of the beeping :) I haven't had any drop outs and the hanging notes haven't reoccurred. Without a reliable way to reproduce the issue it will be difficult to fix unless it's obvious in the code.

[Adam_G]

@d-healey it does happen at the same time stamp everytime though

[Adam_G]

@d-healey thank you for testing it

[d.healey]

@Adam_G

it does happen at the same time stamp everytime though

Tell me more, I was just playing it in a 1 bar loop.

I‘m pretty sure that the reason is the handling of left over samples from the last audio buffer which causes some midi notes to be dropped because the timestamp falls outside of the range but I‘m not in my studio where I have access to FL Studio so it has to wait until I can properly debug this.

[Christoph Hart]

But just to be sure: aligning the tick lengths doesn‘t help here?

[Adam_G]

@Christoph-Hart thank you for looking into it. no unfortunately having that option ticked makes no difference for me. ill await your findings

[Christoph Hart]

Alright, I've found and fixed the issue (on the timestretch branch), so please check if it still produces stuck notes. Your MIDI file plays back correctly now, but there might be other edge cases that I haven't covered yet.

[Adam_G]

@Christoph-Hart you sir are the greatest of all time

@Adam_G
how did you build it? it keeps failing for me
