monomachine problems/questions...and possible bug fix release

2006-01-22 by jeff

Hey all,

Here's the problems I'm having with my monomachine:

1. Semi-frequent lockups
2. Patterns disappearing or refusing to play
3. A whole bank (bank H) suddenly filled up with ghost patterns from 
nowhere after a lockup

Please note that twice these lockups have forced the two synths I 
have slaved to the monomachines sequencer to go into an error state 
and they had to be reset too - this would kill a live set!

And here's a few questions:

1. Is there any way to save track arpeggiator settings as a part of a 
kit somewhere? I need to load them quickly on a per-kit basis and I 
can't find a way to do this.

2. The "Add" arpeggiator settings seems to function differently 
sometimes. For some tracks, holding down one note (not a chord) is 
enough to get the arpeggiator running and it plays that one note 
repeatedly (which sounds cool!) while for others you have to play 
chords to get it going. what am I doing wrong?

3. If I want to arpeggiate with a note in a low octave, one in the 
middle of the keyboard and one in a high octave, how can I hit all 
three notes simultaneously to get the arpeggiator started? I once 
figured out some way to get this to work but now I can't.

So what I'm wondering is...whats the word on a new OS? I read here 
that someone had gotten some confirmation from Elektron that 1.06 was 
buggy and they suggested to go back to 1.05b. Is that true? 

I love my monomachine it's just that...well...I don't really trust it 
sometimes :)
