I had a look at this and if two notes are placed directly after each
other, with the note-off snap:ed to the same place as the second note
the noteoff will be done after the noteon.
Here's a trace out:
MidiOut: Synth: <SimpleDrums-0>: time:485105038 port:4 chan:1 NoteOn c1(0x24) 70
MidiOut: Synth: <SimpleDrums-0>: time:485125710 port:4 chan:1 NoteOn c1(0x24) 70
MidiOut: Synth: <SimpleDrums-0>: time:485125710 port:4 chan:1 NoteOn c1(0x24) 0
MidiOut: Synth: <SimpleDrums-0>: time:0 port:4 chan:1 NoteOn c1(0x24) 0

The third line, the noteoff, is really related to the first noteon.
I think it should have been scheduled before the Noteon but maybe
there are other circumstances to consider?
Could this be due to a recent change or has it always been like this?
I can't see that other synths are affected so maybe this is a case the
synth should take care of?

I saw the report for Euphoria but don't have it installed so haven't checked.

Dan, could you supply a screenshot, for me it's a slider and it works fine.

Master volume, also works here, I think we'll need more info.

Yeah, not sure when it switched name, it used to be called SimpleDrums.
As for being a synth... it doesn't do synthesis but it sure is a synth
as I would use the term. Still I think it should be called SimpleDrums
as drum-sampler was the purpose of the synth.

Changing the name breaks backwards compatibility though but I think
I'll change it anyway.

Robert
