Hello:

 

I have a basic question about the default behaviour of the sustain function.
I use the standard MIDI GM soundfont and select a wind instrument like 65
Alto Sax.  When I hold down the sustain pedal and play any note, the note is
sustained indefinitely until I let got the sustain pedal.  Is this the
expected behaviour?  By contrast, an instrument like 0 Piano will simply
decay more slowly when the sustain pedal is pressed but will ultimately
still fade away.  With a wind instrument, since the notes stay on, it
quickly becomes a very loud cacophony of notes unless you quickly let go of
the pedal.

 

Is this a property of the soundfont or of the fluidsynth settings?  What
changes to the fluidsynth settings would I need to make to have a similar
behaviour on the wind instruments than I get on other instruments (slow
fade)?  

 

Regards,

 

EG
