Programming sequencer with midi keyboard

2003-08-04 by rickyannotta

Has anyone run across this scenario?  Sometimes I'll just be playing 
Evolver with my PCR-50 midi keyboard, checking out presets and stuff 
and I'll come across something cool, like a bassline for example, and 
I'll decide to create a sequence.   So I will set set SEQ 1 
destination to control all frequencies.  Then I will hold the 
sequencer button down until it blinks (enabling Evolver sequencer to 
be programmed via midi keyboard) and press Sequence #1. Basic Stuff..

Then I'll go to "key in" my sequence, but the pitch will be 
transposed up like 5 octaves. So there goes my bassline! Then I fudge 
with the Key Off/Transpose parameters, which sometimes doesn't let me 
transpose back to my original sound. This has happened to me a many 
times, but not always -  Is there a reason for this?  Don't know if 
I'm working "wrong" with the Evolver or if it's some bug or 
something. 

Any help would be appreciated!
-Rick
