Latch mode
With latch mode On, Virtual Bassist will play Parts continuously from
the moment you play the first key until you press the stop button of
your sequencer or play the C#1 Stop or D#1 End remote keys.
If you only want to play a lick here and there, set latch mode to Off and
Virtual Bassist will only play while the keys on your MIDI keyboard are
held.
Latch mode is turned On or Off for the duration that your sustain pedal
is pressed.
Using the sustain pedal in Latch mode
Using a combination of Latch settings and sustain pedal with Virtual
Bassist will give you a lot of flexibility when arranging and performing.
Try experimenting with the possibilities described below to get an
understanding of how useful the sustain pedal can be.
If you don’t have a sustain pedal you can assign Latch to a different MIDI
controller. To do this right-click on the Latch parameter and assign a
MIDI controller from the drop-down list or use right-click and choose
MIDI Learn, move the MIDI controller of your choice and this controller
will be detected and used by Virtual Bassist.

is released.
Latch Mode Off Sustain pedal

Latch mode is enabled for as long as you press

tain pedal.
