n/p. that's why I corrected your info and posted the envelope example to try out, because unless you are playing with loops or longer samples, you won't run into this problem (the decay of the volume into the sustain level you set).
that's why it's important to set the sustain level to 0db/100%.
the loop mode is not only useful for loops. when you've synced a loop to the tempo of the song (like you said you do), you can simply turn the loop mode on and you have to play the note once or you hold it until you want the looping to stop. you can also set the number of loop cycles AND the fading out via the volume envelope (after you have released the key).
so for example, if you let a 2 bar loop cycle three time, it will play for 8 bars.
this is nice for both triggering whole sequences with just one key stroke, or even rearranging a loop, "remixing" it.
if you have a nice sample, but it's simply too short, you can use the loop function to repeat parts of it. lets say you have a clap with a reverb on it and you want to make the reverb part longer, you just loop the part (or more than one part of it).
hope this helps. thumbsup
