    Voice limitation with bard ensemble performance hampers full party music.

    Date & Time: 9/18/2020
    Frequency: Always
    World name: Any World
    Character name:
    Retainer name: n/a
    NPC name: n/a
    Monster name: n/a
    Class/Level: Bard
    Party or solo: Party & Solo
    In-game time: Any
    Area and coordinates: Any
    Housing: n/a
    Steps:
    1. Form a party in game of 8 bards with performance mode unlocked
    2. Enter ensemble mode and perform a song together.
    3. When several people are playing notes at the same time, a wind or brass instrument may be cut off because of a voice limitation in the game. Currently the game is only allowing 16 Active voices, which a few harp and lute players will easily hit, causing a flute player to not be heard correctly.

    Please increase the voice limit to 64 Active voices, or if that is not possible then 32 Active voices. There are a number of bands now using ensemble mode that are having this same problem.

    I have recorded a sample of the issue occurring. In this video the flutes should be sustaining, however they are being cut off right after 16 harp/lute/drum notes are played by other players. https://youtu.be/umT9alXEyfs

    PC / Internet specs: n/a , applies to all.

    Agreed, my friends and me have also experienced this issue a lot when trying to combine several instruments and then adding a sustained note, like wind/brass. 64/32 active voices would leave more room to play with ensemble mode.
