Re: [xl7] my sound keeps dropping out ...help...please

Could be too much polyphony in use.

See our past posts on how to calculate polyphony in-use.  A sound can use as much as 24 voices out of the 128 of the command station!   Also make sure your ADSR release times are not so long as to force the use of another voice when repeatedly playing a note....
