The SoundFont spec (version 2.04) describes the “exclusiveClass" option this way: "when this note is initiated, any other sounding note with the same exclusive class value should be rapidly terminated.”
I hear this effect when I use the synthesizer included in the editor I’m using (Polyphone), but when I use Fluidsynth, I’ve noticed these irritations: 1. Fluidsynth seems to interpret “rapidly” as 750 ms after the new note is initiated. I understand that it is a subjective word, but there are musical works for which 750 ms does not qualify IMHO. 2. If the sound of the instrument has not naturally decayed by the time Fluidsynth decides to cut it off, there is a distracting click. I searched the list archives and issue tracker and came up empty. Are these known issues? Is there a work-around? If you like, I could create a small soundfont and MIDI file to help reproduce the problem. Let me know.
