Recording the sustain pedal

When the sustain pedal (MIDI CC 64) of the connected MIDI device is held during recording, the following applies for VST 3 parameters (not for continuous MIDI controllers):

  • When a note-off event is received (when the key on the connected keyboard is released), this message is not sent to the VST 3 instrument but is instead created by the program when the sustain pedal is released.

    This makes it possible for the VST 3 instrument to play back controllers that are sent after a key was released.

  • The release phase of the recorded notes ends when the sustain pedal is released.
