I'm considering buying a Prophet X

[Delp1953]

I'm considering buying a Prophet X, and I love long, ambient/atmospheric pads. I've read that there's no release loop for the samples, so they can cut off on sounds with long releases. How often does that come up for you all? Are most of the samples long enough that they don't require release loops? Thanks!

Any sample that has a loop should continue to play the during the decay stage.  The Prophet X doesn't support a notion of a distinct release loop that's different than the sustain loop, but the single defined loop will serve both purposes.  Where a sample doesn't have any loop defined at all, as with some of the piano samples, they will generally already have a full natural decay to silence as part of each sample.
