Playing with them now.... Did you initialise the memory when you first powered your P3 up ? Just wondering if there might have been random stuff in there that didn't get deleted... One point worth noting if it does turn out to be a hardware problem - the P3 pattern data amounts to 48k of RAM. The notes, velocities, length, delay and gate/tie/skip/X bits are all held in the lower half, and the auxes in the upper half of the 48k. The physical memory is divided between two 32k RAM chips, so all 24k of the note data is held in one chip, and there's an 8k/16k split of the aux data between the two RAM chips. So if you had a problem with one RAM chip, it could affect aux data without causing a problem with any of the notes. Was the underlying note data OK after your incident, with just the auxes affected ? I'd take a regular sysex backup for a while, so you could compare the contents of memory if there is more weirdness. Cheers, Colin f
