Menu in SFIZZ vanished with new oram-stable-2506

Since I updated to oram-stable-2506, almost the whole menu for SFIZZ disappeared, only “main” is available.
I´m sure that there were more in the past “pedal” and probably some more. Unfortunately I can´t remember in detail.
Now the page of a SFIZZ Chain looks like this …


How can I get the other menu points back?
I need to edit the behavior of Sustain pedal e.g. Former I could do that under the menu “pedals” but it vanished …

This is OK. In the past, a lot of controllers were shown for SFZs, but most of them had no effect because were not defined/used by the SFZ file. Now this has been improved and only assigned controllers are shown. If you think some assigned controller is being missed, you could try creating a config YML file for this SFZ. Also, report the issue so we can improve our controller auto-detection algorithm.
Regarding pedal controllers, we have removed these from most engines because of the new code for managing pedals.
I understand it could be annoying in some cases, so we could add these controllers again. @riban, what do you think about this? Could we have issues by re-adding sustain controller to rompler engines, for instance?

OK, understood
I´ll try to create YML files where needed

I would like a specific use case described so that we can understand what is required. The sustain pedal control was removed because we implemented specific handling of 4 pedals in the core with indication of state in the mixer, inter-chain operation, etc. I don’t want to break all of that by providing an implementation that fails to address an acutal workflow issue, e.g. I do one thing but @zast wants something else.

@zast maybe you could describe what you want to do and the behaviour / workflow you want to achieve.

What i (@jofemodo) would like is having the possibility of enabling sustain without having a physical pedal plugged into my keyboard. We had this before and i used from time to time. It could be convenient.

What I sometimes need to do is, just to deactivate Sustain for a certain Synth chain. E.g. I have two chains with sounds that are both triggered by the same keyboard. One of the chains should perform sustain, the other one should ignore Sustain. In the past I resolved that by different MIDI Learn for Sustain in each Chain.
Sometimes I though by myself: why is there no possibility to just “deactivate” Sustain if needed

Just for my understanding: If I have a YML file for a specific SFZ that is NOT containing e.g. “sustain” or “expression” this SFZ will NOT respond to Sustain or Expression MIDI Data?
This I would see as a solution to just switch off certain controller parameters if necessary.

Now this can be achieved by unchecking the CC 64 from the CC list in chain options.

This is not something you want to do with an YML file.
