Logic Pro X sustain not releasing I have been using my M-Audio Hammer88 controller happily with Logic Pro for two years. I have a Yamaha sustain pedal plugged in to the sustain input in the back of the Hammer88. In the last week, when I record the keyboard into a Logic Pro project, the sustain pedal will not release, and all of the notes continue to ring, making a sonic mess. I have tested the sustain pedal on a Technics keyboard (not a usb keyboard, but a standalone keyboard). ... it works fine. I have two other sustain pedals (an m-audio, and a technics) ... they both work fine plugged into the Technics keyboard, but all 3 produce the same problem in Logic Pro on my Mac Studio when plugged in to the Hammer88.... when I press the sustain pedal and then release, the notes continue to ring as with the Yamaha. So, it's not the Yamaha pedal only ... all three produce the same result. I assume something has happened with the audio/midi setup in Logic Pro, which is not receiving a stop message from the sustain pedal. I have hunted around in Logic Pro, but I don't know the parameters to change to try to get the M-audio's stop signal to register. It seems that the pedal is ok, and the m-audio keyboard is ok, but the signal to release the sustain is not getting through to Logic. As I have been trying to fix this, I have also lost my C note below middle C (C3) ... does not play. Thanks for any help or suggestions.

My sustain pedal isn't working in logic pro. There are sustain markings showing up in the editor but the notes are not being sustained My sustain pedal isn't working in logic pro. There are sustain markings showing up in the automation/midi editor but the notes are not being sustained?? I tried deleting preferences, bypassing control surfaces, and even uninstalled and reinstalled logic. The pedal works fine on my keyboard but when I use with logic the notes aren't sustained even though a sustain is marked when recording. I feel like I'm going crazy, any help appreciated!
