I picked up what I believe is an older 230v G6 frame. The NT12 PSU says "REV 2" on it. I noticed the PSU hums slightly. Though I also noticed one of my other G6 frames sounds about the same. But a third NT12 frame I have is quieter. So I just thought I'd ask if it's a concern. Th

Add on: I don't know how the "start"/"stop" handles the clock in the actual design. But my suggestion requires for external clock also that "stop" disables the clock itself, or (if this is not good for some reasons) "stop" has to disable also the divider in my example. This requi

Hi Dieter we do not want to have this, because a reset while playmode would show the same behaviour. This "wait for second step"-behaviour should only be shown if the reset comes while stop mode or at the didentical moment with the start-trigger. I think this requires some RS-Fli

I will see if there is a chance to add another switch to the A-154 but from the first glance this will be a problem as there is no space at the front panel left and all port inputs of the microcontroller are used. Maybe a special control setting (e.g. first step fully clockwise)

I have just installed an A-154 into my system and noticed similar behaviour to that described in the initial post. If you hit reset whilst the sequencer is running it will actually play step 2 as the first note. I have heard that this is a problem with many sequencers too though.
