Sustain bug in Mainstage 2.1.3?

Oh yes, the sustain pedal bug is kind of enervating. However, filtering the sustain pedal in the MIDI input seems to be the only way to circumvent that problem, but you loose the option to "latch" the organ sound. I checked with my system and the filtering per patch does work here, but I checked it using two patches with evb3 loaded.

The best solution would be to have Apple fixing that bug or roll back to MS 2.1.2.

I just used Time Machine to revert back to 2.1.2. Worked fine, sustain bug fixed!

I'm so thankful that I set up Time Machine a month ago...

I always make a TimeMachine backup before leaving home for a gig.

The advantage of a rollback is simply priceless.

Great.... How long you think a fix will be?
I just started integrating MS into my live keys setup.

I thought I was the problem !

Hurry up Apple, THX

hmmm...

Logic update 9.1.5 fixed this problem in Logic, but *not* MainStage.

I would have thought the EVB3 was some kind of "internal" AudioUnit, and that the behavior across Logic Studio hosts would be the same... right now it's not that way, and... I'm hatin' the EVB3 as is with MainStage.

When's there going to be a fix for MainStage? I just want the same fix in MS as Apple has put in Logic 9.1.5.

hhhhmmmm

If you use organ patches frequently, I'd suggest moving to the GSi VB3 - it's inexpensive and infinitely superior: http://www.genuinesoundware.com/?a=showproduct&b=24. Sounds amazing and works like a charm in MainStage. It is central to all my various Concerts.

As great as the GSi VB3 is, but there no reaction to sustain at all.

Im really glad that others are taking this as seriously as I. When I updated it was on the morning of a big gig. Luckily I had first done as TM backup but for a few hours I was panicking! I posted here and seamed to get a somewhat sniffy reply indicating that it really was too minor to bother Apple about. For me it's huge though as I use EVB for about 90% of my gig!

Anyway I hoped that the Logic update would have solved it but alas no, still there in MS 😟

I will also try the GSi AU as it would be great to have a backup. According to the website sustain was fixed in 1.4 update DaCaptin - any more joy?

PS - COME ON APPLE - FIX THIS SMALL BUT EXTREMELY SIGNIFICANT BUG PLEASE!!

indeed, like the sound.

already own the Vintage Organs from Native Instruments as part of Komplete, so I had a fall-back, but *every* patch that had EVB3 needed to be changed to NI's instrument, which kinda sucked.

as for GSi's VB3, what bothers me is that it's only available as a 32-bit plug... they say just use the 32-bit bridge, but it there's something I'll *never* trust in a live rig, it's the 32-bit plug (it just quits... nice, NOT!)

But the point here is, Apple made a mistake, and fixed it in Logic, but not MainStage, and *that* bothers me most!!!

Yes, the 32 bit bridge is a makeshift. Avoid, avoid, avoid ....

And yes, Apple should sync such bug fix releases.

So good to find someone else with the same experience. I had to filter the sustain for the whole gig and there are times I really needed to latch the organ whilst moving hands elsewhere. After I realised it was the version and use time machine to back up to 2.1.2 Nonetheless I really want this fixing!

it is fixed, in v2.2, which you'll have to purchase in the App Store. It's between 20 Euros and 30 US$. Version 2.2 also makes use of multiple CPU cores should you have an i5 or i7 processor (or a MacPro).

Yes, it's probably not fair that this fix never came out in MainStage even though the fixed it pretty quickly over in Logic...

I just want ahead and bought the upgrade to 2.2 and put this particular issue to rest.

You've touched on something I'vew been wondering about; will there ever be a "normal/un-paid" upgrade to Mainstage, as it was up through 2.1.3? And when I go to purchase the updated vesion, I get a message saying that I've already got Mainsstage that wasn't purchased from the App Store, asking me if I really want to make the purchase.

I guess I just ignore the warning and go ahead? Thanks in advance for any sort of information.
