Re: [elektron] Re: TOTAL BREAKDOWN

Hell again,

Yes, it was in the tables.
Exactly when I edited the 3rd OSC.
The first 2 I had edited before, switched to the third, went into [table
edit]
and it broke down.

Now I´ll backup every new patch.

Because now is the time I discovered how to make the Station sound
even more individual than it is, hehe.
Programming a great patch needs some time - but the results are great!


Thanx
Splank!
