Default Can't play long sounds....

Hi,
I'm totally new to Reason and trying to learn.

I watched the "Reason version 4 - getting started" video. And when I added the Thor Polysonic Synthesizer and selected a bass sound it didn't sound correct.

I can't play long sounds (with my Akai LPK 25). It's like short sounds repeating itself. Like daddadadadadadada... istead of daaaaaaaaaaaa.

You know what i mean?

Please help me, thank you!

A lot of the bass sounds have their own unique quality to them, some aren't capable of elongating notes. Do you have a sustain pedal? Also may I recommend the Subtractor for bass sounds, I usually just use the bass guitar to make basic bass lines, then I go back and edit the sound to match what I hear in my head. You could also try adding reverb to your synthesizer by creating for instance the RV7000 Reverb device.
Hope this helps.

Polyphony should be high as well as release.
