Okay George I believe I have fixed the reverb tail issue. I put a new version up
on the download page of ambiloop.com. Let me know how it goes. It's cool to hear
how extensively you are using Ambiloop, I'm glad it is working out for you! The
midi commands are stored as a list that is run through in the order they are
stored. The midi xml file is just a text file so you could open it in Notepad to
take a look "under the hood" if you wanted to. Make a copy of the file first if
you decide to edit it though. =)
