Grand Piano Notes E6 Through E7 Are Sustained

On the EZKeys Grand Piano, has anyone noticed the notes E6 through E7 being sustained without a pedal? I can hear some of these notes up to 7 seconds with no pedal applied. I don’t notice the same problem when using the same M-Audio Keystation 88 keyboard with a general midi instrument. I also notice that the EZKeys Grand Piano can get out of tune, generally with the lower keys. The modulation wheel on my keyboard has been re-purposed and has no effect on the sounds, but still the Grand Piano tuning seems to slide off. Any ideas on how to fix this?

BEST ANSWER
Were you referring to a hardware instrument or a software GM instrument? the two notes Ab6 and A6 in particular seem to be sustained longer than other notes in that range. Then again, notes in that high range do not have felts in an acoustic piano as if the sustain pedal is pressed down. Also, I checked two other piano plugins including the Kontakt Grandeur and they all sustain but because the notes are high in pitch, they decay fast, too.

I wasn’t aware that on a natural instrument not all notes are necessarily damped. The GM I am using is from a hardware MIDI box. Very interesting! Thanks.
