Hi Christian,
I suppose they mean the special waveform of a harpsichord tone (I looked at one of the samples): the 'normal' decay of each tone is sampled until a lenght of 18 sec's (!!!), then follows start and end of loop, that means if you keep the key pressed you hear the tone decaying for a long time and after that the loop is only silence. Behind the loop is the sound of key release which is very particular on a harpsichord. It looks like this:
\
x\
xx\
xxx\
xxxx\--------------------------------------------------------------|Loop|--|release sound-------
As Hauptwerk V1.xx provides only 1 loop plus 1 release point this is only possible with a 'decaying' instrument, not with an organ.
