Prevent note off choke from external sequencer?

Hi,

When I control the LXR via an external sequencer the LXR steps are choked by the note/gate length coming in. This doesn't happen (obviously) on the LXR on board sequencer

Is there a way to stop this happening? Or do I have to find a pad controller that does not output note/gate length?

Thanks

    The LXR will turn off a note if it receives a 'note off' for that voice. The workaround is to set your sequencer/controller to not send 'note off', or to set the note lengths so that they do not choke one another.

    I've honestly never understood this behavior - maybe to accommodate more envelope options in the future? I've tentatively 'fixed' this in my custom FW. Now, voices will not switch off if they receive a 'note off' midi signal, but note offs will still be recorded as velocity 0 steps when record is on to accomodate sequencing other instruments with the LXR.

    If this is an issue for anyone, I can make this switchable with a global option, but it's hard to think of cases where this would be desirable. If someone really wants a voice to 'click' off immediately, this can be accomplished by sending automation for setting envelope decay to 0.

    Brendan you are shiny golden - thank you so much, I'll give this a fiddle later in the week
