Hello Guys,

I'm new to the forum and I need your help with a problem that I really cannot solve.

I 'll try to be quick:

I'm using Logic Pro 9 live with a Liquid Saffire 56 for my live shows.
In my project, I have all the bases with sequences of the lineup and tracks software instruments played by a master keyboard via midi trough the sound card above.

Through an environment that I created, the software instruments that I want to use are switched by a Cable switcher object.

The problem is simple: each time I switch the MIDI signal to a soft instrument, this does not go into "live mode", but first it needs a midi signal (sustain, notes, etc. ...), otherwise the first note has a latency of about 100 ms ...

The problem is that in my live show, I cannot always push my sustain pedal for each sound change in order to activate the soft instrument. 

I thought then, to insert into the tracks of every soft instrumentruments a midi track that send a sustain midi signal just before using that instrument ... but it doesn't work ... it seems that in order to work, logic wants to receive the first midi signal exclusively from a  physical input , hence from my master ...

Is there a quick solution to overcome this problem? or possibly leave all the soft instrument ALWAYS live mode?

Thanks in advance to everybody!

Andrea
