How to add a Piano String Sustin pedal - MG3b+GigPerformer 5

Looking for a way to use MG3b in GigPerformer5, and use the Hold Chord on only the strings patch.
I’m not sure the GigPerformer sciptlet is necessary to do this. There might be a way to do this only using MG3b?

[Scriptlet] Chord Lock - auto hold pads with sustain pedal

The solution was to create a script that blocks all the NoteOn/NoteOff
MIDI messages while the sustain pedal is down. It also keeps track of the notes played, including their timing and velocity. When the pedal is released, any notes played within the timing threshold (default: half a second) will be triggered. This allows me to play as I would naturally with the sustain pedal, while still catching the chords played just before the pedal goes up and back down.

I don’t know anything about GigPerformer, but to hold a chord for one chain is easily possible in MG3. Just insert the “Sustainer” MIDI machine before your desired VST, set it to “Freeze Chord” and cable it to a switch.
