Add a hold Button #9

Open ju-w opened 2 years ago

ju-w commented 2 years ago

Hello!

This App is absolutely amazing, but it desperately needs a hold Button (Toggle)!

Eg: Hold active: Tap key -> Sound is continuing to play after release; Tap key again -> Sound will stop. Hold inactive: Same behavior as currently

This would make the App 1000x better!

Thank you for raising this issue. I know about Midi after touch, but I'm not familiar with any synths that have a note hold feature - would be able to point me to any examples you know of?

I only installed DRC from the playstore but I think most apps have it.

Hasn't a sustain pedal a quite similar function? Synthesizers with sustain pedals do exist at least: https://www.amazon.com/Korg-Nautilus-Performance-Workstation-Polishing/dp/B09TRSW6N1 for example.

But actually I was coming here because I love the app and if there's anything I could help :) I'm not really into app development, but python and I do art stuff, if any media or design is needed.

Yes a sustain pedal would be a bit similar, a sustain pedal might even already work via MIDI controller, I just don't have one to try out, but I don't think that's what is being requested here.
