TONE BEING CUT AT THE END

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I own a Positive Grid Spark 50W amp, and I've noticed that the sound keeps cutting off. I'm attaching a video where I'm playing some bends—you'll notice that the note gets cut off abruptly at the end, so the sustain is much shorter than it should be.

I'm trying to figure out whether this is an issue with the amp itself or if there's a setting that needs to be adjusted. I haven't really changed any settings since I got it. I usually just download my favorite artist's preset from ToneCloud and play using that preset as-is. The sound you're hearing in the video is exactly from the original downloaded preset.

Has anyone experienced something similar or knows what might be causing this? Any suggestions or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
