If you click on a note then drag it, is there another note underneath it?

Some kind of loop or something? You have regular inputs and emulated inputs?

I've also had problems with a second recorded note that's really short. Seems like there was a way to remove the short notes.

Is that through the usb port? Install Yamaha generic midi driver?

Off the top of my head sounds like it could be double notes that are short. One of my keyboards did that when hooked up over USB. Select the area and use the action “Delete Notes”. It has a slider to select short notes, it’s under Musical Functions when you right click in the Music Editor I think.

Or more importantly you may be recording two notes at once for some reason due to some sort of midi feedback loop etc. I would be hunting that down. You should only be recording single notes at a time and not need to remove double notes.

I have experienced this with my Nektar LX88 once in a while, if the sustain pedal is on/down, notes sustain until the pedal is released, however if sustain is off/up, notes play staccato no matter how long the note is held.

Hey Bradch00,
How did you fix it?

I still haven’t figured out why it happens. The sessions where it happens are still doing it, however when I removed the LX88 as a controller and restarted S1, which then restores the LX88 as an instrument, new sessions were normal.

One obvious place to start is look at your midi signal flow. For instance if your controller is sending data into Studio One fine that is all good. It means it is being received. But if you have say input monitoring enabled and you have got that very same track set to send data back out to your controller again (which also may be a synth in this case) then that synth is going to get two midi notes being presented to it every time you play a note. Some synths might pass the incoming data back out to the midi out hence the double notes etc.

So what are you using as a controller. What is the keyboard? You can check your keyboard operation because some of them let you decide what the MIDI OUT will actually send. Then there is the issue of LOCAL ON/OFF settings within the keyboard. And Studio One's monitor status. All or a combination of these things can result in double notes reaching Studio One.

Hi Bradch00,

Thanks for your thorough response! I managed to resolve the problem. I deleted my external devices and then re-added them. My only midi controller is a Yamaha Stage Piano CP33, which was listed a number of times but not always completely/correctly. I can only guess that when it was listed (added) completely/correctly more than once, it was sending more than one signal, thus recording more than one note. Nevertheless, the issue is fixed now with my Yamaha being the ONLY midi controller listed. Thanks again.

I had this exact problem, now fixed

I had 'all inputs' selected for my midi tracks then had the same input regestired twice under different names in the external devices bit

I'm putting this here in case someone googles this issue and haven't found the answer yet. The answer looks to have been answered but in my experience, the issue somehow started after I couldn't get one of my songs to load so I started a new session after killing the session that was giving me problems. upon doing so, I noticed that when I started to record new instrument midi data, when I was was recording, Studio one was working fine, but upon playback, The notes would be staccato-only type notes. However, the Midi notes would be sustained, There was no double notes, and no overlapping notes So it caused me to search online for a solution and I stumbled upon this thread. After reading

After reading What DavidBurke1 did, I decided to take a look at my midi devices (external devices) and noticed that Studio One somehow duplicated my Panorama T4 Keyboard device, where it showed the 2 Panorama T4 Keyboard devices instead of 1. Since it's normal to see 2 Panorama devices, (one as the control surface device and one as the keyboard device) I didn't pay much attention when I was troubleshooting before stumbling across this thread. But this time I looked very close and saw that instead of 2 devices coming from the Panorama, it was actually 3 devices. So I just deleted one of the Panorama T4 keyboard devices (specifically the duplicated one that was just the basic Keyboard type) and then it started working again. Hope that makes sense. Just check to see if somehow there are 2 devices of the same midi controller if you run into the issue where notes are playing staccato when they should be sustained notes .

I was going to suggest the same. Same problem happened to me on my Native Instrument Komplete Kontrol. I have two of them. An S88 and an S61. When I have "All Inputs" I get short staccato notes. I need to select the actual instrument in the MIDI input section of the track. Then it works fine.
