I’m working on a track in Ardour 8.4.0 (Ubuntu Studio package) and my Yoshimi MIDI instrument track has reverb on it for some reason, and I can’t seem to find how to stop it, and it keeps going after I stop playback. My Surge XT (an extra plugin I installed) track is fine and plays as normal, but my Yoshimi one does not. How do I get this to stop?
How long does it keep going for?
Cheers,
Keith
Have you disabled the reverb on the Yoshimi patch itself?
Many of those patches have quite long reverbs, which can be a bit annoying.
In Yoshimi’s main window you click “Edit” next to the patch name and then “Effects” in the new window.
Loop through the effects there and bypass any reverb.
You can silence ordinary plugins when you stop playback in Edit → Preferences → Transport → Plugins
Depends on how long I played the track for. For just a single note it goes for upwards of 10 seconds, so more notes means longer time it’s played for.
I just tried that after reading this, did not help sadly.
That doesn’t sound like normal reverb to me, especially if it goes on longer with more notes played.
Is this just for one session, or does it happen for all sessions? Are you able to share an example session somewhere?
Does it do this when you export, and is audible in the exported track? If so, can you export and share the exported track somewhere so we can hear the effect.

One obvious thing to try is to disable Yoshimi on that track and add Surge XT and see if the problem continues.
If it does the next thing would be to copy the MIDI data to a new track. If the issue persists on that track it’s probably something in the MIDI data itself that’s the culprit.
So I was working on another track, and I added Yoshimi to it and it did the same thing. But… on another “test” track it didn’t happen. So this seems to be an intermittent thing.
