Hi, thank you for your reply! YES, after my first mail I also discovered that same noise you are talking about in the alt.outs and freaked out! It is more noticeble in low freq. long decay sounds (ex: any Bass drum), I can hear a kind of filter closing after the sound which realy interfers with any reasonable sound design you my want to do. If a sound is assigned to C and you solo D on you mixer you only hear this noise... Apart from this noise I also have another very strange one. Yesterday I recorded and send them to David at Elektron support who´s been dealing with this. If they do not manage to give me a do reason for this and also a short term solution I am not keeping my MD. The potential is definitely there but if you can´t use it properly there is no point...
