First note of a phrase randomly not played (v2.5.3 and Flutes v1.2.3)
Randomly the first note of a phrase is not played using the Saxophones, Clarinets, Double Reeds v2.5.3, and the Flutes v1.2.3.
The issue is unfortunately a bug. It's related to the settings for the Breath Controller, specifically to the "Expr. Trigger Mode". When this parameter is set to "Normal" or "Fast", a held note can be retriggered by the breath rising up from zero to a non-zero value. But if the breath level is zero for more than 20 seconds, sometimes the next note-on is skipped.
Workarounds:
- If the retriggering is not needed, you can set the "Expr. Trigger Mode" to "Off".
- Provide a short breath input (CC greater than 5) just before the phrase starts
