Kontakt syncing bug with Cubase quick controls
I'm experiencing a problem in Cubase which seems to be specific to Kontakt (same experience with Kontakt 7 or 8 in Cubase 13 or 15) - does it ring any bells with anybody else? For example, if I use a quick control (track or focus) to reduce a mapped parameter value to zero, the parameter will be set correctly, but the…

Bug 7.10 for Cinematic Studio Series (KT-9890)
Found a new annoying bug when updating from 7.9 to 7.10. When I use it for CSB and CSS and have a long legato line that ends with a long note, the sound of that last note suddenly goes very silent after a few milliseconds instead of staying the same for the whole duration. As if CC1 jumps from whatever it was to a very low…

I’ve tested this in Ableton and Machine 2, and the same thing happens. I’m confused because in standalone mode, the sound plays, but it doesn’t play when loaded in another software. It plays the…
