Note Volume inconsistency

Not sure if this is a NI VST Massive problem or a Fruity loop problem but I have searched both help forums to little avail.

The problem is that when playing in song or pattern mode occasionaly there will be an instrument that glitches, say we have a single 4/4 measure with a whole note in it and the pattern just loops. The note will be loud the first time quiet the second and then loud again, continuously in this pattern. It can go from -4db to -6db or sometimes more extreme. randing from -4 to -25!

If none of that made sense... I made a video :D which even shows my settings.

are you sure nothing in the ADSR or automation could be causing this

Positive, it happens with multiple instances of massive and I have tweaked the ASDR and automation settings, none fix the problem.

:roll:

It's most likely due to the oscillators being free running, set them to retrigger. If it's still doing it, then its down to your effects/modulation.

Yea it was a problem with the 2 osc's they seemed to be trying to overide each other.

Go to the 4 ENV in massive. Turn the release all the way down, because it is by default linked to the volume. Next, go to the OSC tab, and click restart via gate. If there are any envelopes 1-4 linked to anything in your patch in Massive, then make sure you click reset at zero.
