Hi all.

New to the world of MPC, loving it so far.

I have the Live with 2.3 and a LPK25 hooked up to it. Using the sustain button on the LPK I've recorded a MIDI sequence with the on board piano instrument. All is well apart from if I copy and paste the events the sustain is lost, and also at random times the sustain will not work on the original events. Seemingly with no pattern.

I've tried new projects, sequences, programs. I've tried different instruments.

I'm really new to MIDI (as in 4 days in) and wonder if the sustain message is getting lost, and how to find it. Googling tells me most people can't turn sustain off, but I can't seem to keep it on!

Any thoughts?

Cheers.
