PEK bug? Trigger Select/Modulation with sequencer

2006-03-13 by jocoltrane

Hello everybody.
my name is Raffaele and I'm a proud PEK owner (sn 00198).

I was programming a sound today and found out a bug:
I wanted to do a poly Square Pad with the Filter modulated by
sequencer values (simple, no?).
I'm in program mode
I set the filter cutoff @ 55 and put seq1 destination to LowPass.
Trigger Select: Keyboard Only (don't want the seq to trigger envelopes).
What happens is that seq "mutes" the first voice, and the other 3 are
uneffected. The light of the first voice is always off
So I tried keys and seq and realize that in that modes the seq
triggers only the first voice, and the pitch for the first voice is
not "pitched" by the keys. Also, no filter mod on voices 2 3 & 4.
Obviosly Seq only triggers only voice one.
Using Key, Gates Seq I have the modulation working with all four
voices, but seq triggers also envelopes, so there's no way to have a
pad sound.

Seems to me that there's a constant link between seq and voice 1,and
there's no way to get sequencers to work as modulator without having
them also triggering.
it's a bug, isn't it? is this a common thing, or it happens only to me?

Thanks
