Don't know whether this is a general SM bug or that it is 'only' Groovebox II (by chackl) related:
When holding a note on my PC-keyboard and then using a pop-up menu, the notes hangs (can eventually be released by pressing the same key again)...

Hahahahahah kind of funny It only actually happens in SM i think and not in compiled plugins but i may be wrong there but it is one of my go to features hahahahahah IF i want a held note so i can mess around with the synth parameters i just press a note use a pop up and then merrily twaek away to test stuff heheheheh
So if they do get rid of this bug i guess i want a note hold on the keyboard primitive hahahahah

Thats the stupid stuck note issue SM has always had you notice, i have reported to malc about it before and made a post requesting a updated module which would fix this -
Midi Event Module Enhancement
but nobody showed any interest.

I have to be honest though Dan this isn't high on my list with all the terrible issues that plague SM SM hasn't been getting much love recently at various forum around the net

Yeah true, same with most general stuff atm i would rather the important issues get looked at though but its always good to list stuff like that for when module additions/fixes progress starts again.

This happens in other applications too. It's caused by focus changes in Windows. When a window has the focus it receives the keyboard input. So when the drop menu appears SM surrenders key input to the drop-down.
There might be a way round this but it could affect the behaviour of the drop downs. I will need to have a look.
@Tom7777: I'm not sure that this is exactly the same thing that you spoke to me about. Yours I thought was more down to low-level MIDI and the fact that you were duplicating the notes coming in.
@NAS: do you have links to those forums? I'd be interested to read what the gossip is. Also if you have a shortlist of the top 'plague' issues send them my way.
Thanks.

Hmm i thought that idea would solve stuck note in general, i have had stuck note via a drop down before just like this though also.

That question was @ Nas but i will respond also because i have been getting frustrated recently too imo SM is far from perfect but it has great potential, even though i love it, still got a ways to go 😈 And yeah i do keep considering switching also, SM is more suited for my workflow but theres some big bad points imo for sure i say most of them in that list, the constant bugs are frustrating, also the stuff you havent added and the audio cutout bugs are still there also, i have faith though. 🙂
