You think the USB dongle is the problem? I guess you are just passing through
the USB dongle for direct acess to the Virtualbox guest OS, that works usually
quite well due to its simplicity. Maybe there is rather a problem with the
GSt 4 license server on the Internet. Have you checked which server and port
the installer is trying to reach?

The activation for Gigastudio 4 is different to previous versions in that it's completely offline. There is no license server and the applications depend entirely on the presence of an eLicenser with a valid license to launch. The problem I was having is that the old version of the eLicenser software included with Gigastudio 4 can't read my eLicenser anymore. The latest version of the eLicenser software from Steinberg can read my eLicenser but Gigastudio 4 doesn't seem to be able to use this software, probably due to changes to the interfaces of DLLs etc. since 2008.

The good news is that I put on my grey hat yesterday evening and now have GSEdit4 running in a VM. As a result I was able to check what the maximum Sample Start Offset is - it's still 2000, it hasn't changed. This can be verified at the bottom of page 166 in the GSEdit4 User Manual available here https://tascam.com/us/product/gigastudio_4/download. I hope to get GStudio4 running soon in a similar way.

Well, chances are that GSt actually never played release triggered samples
when releasing the sustain pedal. That would explain what you are observing
there.
Yes, it looks like it could be a GSt3 bug.
What we could do is adding a LS specific file format extension so that anybody
might simply pick his preferred behaviour with LS and probably revert the
default behaviour back to not playing any release samples on sustain up. So a
new option in gigedit like:

1. Default (no release trigger samples on sustain up)
2. Release trigger on sustain up using 127 velocity
3. Release trigger on sustain up using latest note-on velocity
4. Release trigger on sustain up using continuous CC64 info ("half pedal"
support).
Defaulting to no release trigger samples and giving users the option to change this sounds great. It could also be implemented as a scripting command so that users don't have to modify their gig files. Let me know if I can help with making the changes and many thanks for your time spent on this.

All the best,
