Your problem is that even though your parts are on two tracks, you're
calling for the same patch.  As long as that patch is on the same MIDI
channel, when you hit a note which is both part of a melody and part of
a chord, the second attack of that note will impact the disposition of
the first.  The solution, if your synth is multi-timberal, is to call
for the same patch on two different tracks which are each on separate
MIDI channels.  Or, you should use two different string patches, one for
the chords and one for the melodies.

Hi!

I'm recording the same patch, strings,  on two different midi tracks,
the 
first being a melody part, the second, a harmonizing part.  Sometimes it

seems that when the melody plays a note, the harmonizing chord gets cut,

when I want the pedal to sustain it.  Is there a way to disconnect the
two 
tracks from having an effect on one another?
