CW has proved my english is bad... I had to look into dictionary during downloading the update to predict the meaning.

In my nsho, this "play note when it should" feature should never even been given a name.
Just, there, we fixed it.

They have finally fixed several more long standing bugs!

Incidentally, with Midi Chase, what actually happens when you start playback in the middle of a long midi note?
Does it initiate the attack part of the sound again (easy to program) or does it pick up to where the note might have evolved to (would make more musical sense but I can imagine this would be a real bugger to program)?

It is theoretically impossible to program. I have made a mistake once, assuming most synth with random generators bind random sequence to the time line (like anyone does in science). That is possible, but no one is doing that for music.
In case of midi chase, that is not only that. Notes can influence each other, for example if currently sounded note was in legato with previous note, etc. So I guess the result is not worse the effort required, they will have to "dry run" the synth all the way from that note start till the current time line and still without warrantee it sounds correctly.

Yeah but what would they call that ?
Note Chase II?

 
How about "MIDI Karaoke"?

That's exactly what I thought too. I was like: "Hey it isn't working!" I almost started a thread about it until I saw this one!

I do think the name is pretty weird. More like 'midi event tail reader'

I don't know, the name made sense to me as soon as I heard it. It's "chasing" the note back to the start when you hit play. 
 
I guess "MIDI note pickup" wouldn't be a bad name either. 

I guess I think of chase as meaning something about catching up with or following.

In that case I guess you could think of it as the start of the note 'chasing' the playback head.

I like it!

I am really looking forward to making use of this one!    At long last...  

Yes!  Thanks Bakers.

Note or controller chasing is what other DAWs call it, so it's fairly standard.

Ok. We'll be good.
