Sustain 2 feature in CS synthesizers

[omissis]

Hi all, I'm relatively new here.

I'm working on a model of Yamaha CS80's assigner, called "K.AS.": actually the assigner itself is done, along with the pitch and gate generators.
Now I'm focusing on the Sustain feature: in particular I'm struggling to get the work of Sustain II feature: for short, when you play a note or a chord and release it, the note coming next kills the release phase of the previous notes.
Taken from J.Haible's page (thanks Juergen!)


The pitch part has been somehow easy once you get how the note code is produced, that is monophonically, what I don't understand is related with the gate on/off for the envelopes: if I simulate it I get the change of notes but, at the same time, I still hear the release of the previously called voices going, while the gate of the actually pressed key should kill previous releases.
Does this have anything concerning with the voice cycle itself or something else?
Can anybody help me?

Thanks for your support.

If this isn't the right section, can anybody point me to somewhere here in the forums where I can post my question and hopefully get a reply?

Thanks

This doesn't seem like a bad section for posting this question ... this is tricky stuff ... I have been doing some MIDI processing as well in the past and gate signals have been giving me serious headaches then and I never properly solved the problem ... sorry can't really contribute anything like an answer though for the specifics at hand here.
