Topic: Set hammer sound off for all pianos

I have Pianoteq Stage 7. I would like to be able to set the hammer sound to minimum across my collection, or at least across all the presets for one piano. The only option I can see is to change each Preset one at a a time, and save as a new Preset. Please can anyone advise if there is a simpler way of doing this.

Hi,
You should open "general freeze" and freeze "hammer noise" in voicing settings... then you can change preset and the hammer noise stay at the chosen value...

Thanks for this pointer, YvesTh. I've realised it's not hammer noise (which I can't do anything about in PTQ Stage) but key release and sustain pedal noises which were bugging me. So I've experimented with Freezing, with some success. The Freeze button popup help says it should toggle Freezing, but I can't get it to do anything except bring up the Freeze window. Anyway, it's a good start, so thank you.
