No problem. I also had no chance yet to follow this topic. Was distracted with
some other work.

Both solutions, killing and not killing voices at all are both suboptimal.
However I was also experimenting in a studio with a professional drummer, and
we both found that the sound is much more worse and unrealistic, if a previous
voice gets killed too quickly. No matter what kind of samples one is using, it
would always sound like a digital toy.

Currently I think about using the following 2 changes:
1. hard code a default release time for exclusive groups, which is not too
fast and not too long, like you said, something around 100ms. GigaStudio seems
to behave like this. And it would already be a bearable workaround for
drumkits IMO.
2. Adding extensions to the gig as well as to the sfz format engines, allowing
to optionally define 2 exact release times for exclusive group kills:
- 1 parameter for release time for exclusive group killing voices on
the
same note and
- 1 release time for exclusive group killing voices on a foreign note.
Maybe Garritan or somebody already invented some opcode for this already?
