[fluid-dev] Erratic behavior of Loop type '3' - Continue after release

[Graham Goode]

Hi Guys,

I'm experiencing weird behavior with fluidysnth 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 when
using loop type '3' - Continue after release... most of the time the
release simply does not sound. Running my fingers very very fast up
and down the keyboard gets them to sound, and a few sound correctly
all the time, but only when the preceeding loop is of a certain size.

This is the method that we use to create the release portion from
recorded samples:

Separate the release portion from the main audio file and perform a
fade into that portion using audio software. Insert 1/2 a second of
silence before the release portion, then create a loop within the
silence. Create an instrument layer with the wave files of the sustain
portion of the samples, create a second instrument layer with the wave
files of the release portions of the samples. Create a preset with
both instrument layers and play the whole sample.

But most of the release portions are not being played when using
fluidsynth, but play fine in sfz.

Has anyone else come accross this? Is there already a bug report for
it or should I attempt to create one?

Kind regards,
