control the sending of notes off in midi outpout

Hi
I use my ND3P with my hands as a controller to drive synth and organ plugins on Ableton live. It works very well except that the ND3P systematically sends a note off very quickly after each note on. I can play very short sounds but I don't have the possibility to maintain pressure on the pad to make the sound last longer. I would like the note off to be sent only when I release the pressure on the pad. Is it possible? THANKS

Hi Guillo, welcome to the forum!

I don't think it's possible with any setting on the 3p. With Ableton you can lenghthen the notes of course, perhaps let note length depend on note velocity, but not on how long you apply pressure to the pads, that information is simply not sent by the 3p. Perhaps you could use a sustain pedal or expression pedal to control note length in Ableton while playing.

I think a keyboard or touch controller is better suited for this.

Cheers,
Albert
