Hello Marcus,
Please try:
- First double-check, via '
Help | About Hauptwerk', that you are actually running v6.0.2 (just in case somehow you're running an older executable). Assuming so:
- Reboot the Mac for good measure.
- Try re-installing those two sample sets, just in case some sample data had somehow become corrupted on your drive. (In case needed, the downloads are here:
viewtopic.php?f=10&t=17988 .) Make sure you re-install all of the parts of those sample sets. (Re-installing will also cause those organs' caches to be regenerated, which is a useful test just in case the caches had become corrupted.)
- Make sure that when loading those sample sets you have plenty of free RAM. If Hauptwerk's 'Free GB' figure shows less than about 24 GB (given that you have 64 GB), then temporarily change all ranks to load in mono (so as roughly to halve the memory usage), just as a test to see whether that eliminates the problem. Assuming that doesn't solve it:
- As a test, go to the '
Organ settings | Keyboards' screen, and change the 'Input' setting to 'None' for the virtual pedalboard on *all four* of the 'Input 1/2/3/4' tabs. (Doing so will clear all MIDI settings for the pedalboard, and also ensure that it isn't being played indirectly via MIDI floating divisions.) OK the screen.
- Then try playing the organ briefly with some of the same registrations that you were using before (which exhibited the problem) but with all Pedal stops turned on, and verify that the virtual pedalboard is indeed no longer playing at all. (The aim is to verify that you don't inadvertently also have MIDI input configured to any ranks directly, or via bass couplers.) Assuming so:
- Go back to the '
Organ settings | Keyboards' screen and use the 'Auto-detect ...' button on the 'Input 1' tab to auto-detect the pedalboard again, then OK the screen. (You could instead just use right-click auto-detection for the Metz, but the Salisbury doesn't haven't displayed virtual keyboards so the settings screen needs to be used for that one.) Verify that you can still reproduce the problem. Assuming so:
- Just as a test (in case it's somehow related to the CPU struggling, even though you mention that Hauptwerk's 'CPU' meter isn't showing excessive spikes), try changing Hauptwerk to use 48 kHz audio output. Verify that the sample rate has actually changed accordingly on your audio interface.
Do you then still have the problem? If so, do you mean that the stuck notes/pipes stick continue to sound indefinitely, or just that they sound for a bit longer than they should?
Best regards, Martin.
