As far as the sustained midi notes… i have a Motif XS and was having the same issue until i connect the motif to the Ren via USB for midi. next i went to preferences in the Ren software and in the midi tab i set the "active midi inputs" to "YAMAHA MOTIF XS PORT 1" and the "midi out port A" is set to "YAMAHA MOTIF XS PORT 1" as well….. i no longer get the sustained notes. You have to have the updated Motif USB drivers install on the computer.

I went through something very similar with my Moog Little Phatty. If I played the instrument on the pads, it was fine, but if I played the Moog, the note would sustain, forever.
For me the problem was related to other vst/au instruments, one of them being MASSIVE. When I used the AU of Massive, it sustained forever. If I used the VST...it worked just fine.

This probably doesn't help you solve your problem, my bad for that. You just reminded me of this issue, and I thought I'd post it up in case someone else needs to see it.

Sort of related as I have this sustain issue from a number of synth units:

I just press stop on the sequencer a few times to kill any midi output. Not really answered your question but gets rid of ongoing sustain. ;-)
