So I bought a refill with all NNXT patches, a Korg Triton Extreme refill if you wanted to know.

And it sounds really nice, but when I sustain any of the sounds, they last about 8 seconds and then cut out abruptly.

I realize with like piano sounds, if you really record all of the decay until it's dead silent, you would have pretty long samples.
But I am not really even worried about piano sounds so much.

But what about synth sounds, or better yet pad sounds which sometimes can be sustained for a long time in a song.

Is there any way to make NNXT just hold the last sound before the end of the sample? Or to smoothly loop it without the initial attack?

That was helpful!
Thanks!

I did play around with that last night a bit, but it is gonna be a daunting task to do that to each sample for each sound in this refill.
I am gonna have to pick and choose only the main ones I want to use, and do this on a case by case basis for sure.

You would think a refill of a sampled instrument specifically designed for Reason would already have this done.
I guess that's a lot to expect for $20

Oh well, at least now I know there is a way to do this, because some of these sounds are really nice and I want to definitely incorporate them into my rig.

Both is true. It should be done where appropriate, but for 20 bucks you can't expect a miracle, because - as you noticed yourself - it's a lot of work to do for every sample.
