Its most likely the amount of data being generated by the x/y pad, Midi is a serial protocol and is not really designed for lots of continuous data, the keyboard (sfx-6) version has no problem with glitches even when having parameters assigned to all 6 tracks at the same time. I would suggest thinning out the data if possible to see if that helps.

1. SF-60 joystick problems
    Posted by: "dekengren" dekengren@... dekengren

I bought a new Remote SL keyboard and tried to control the joystick 
with the x/y-pad. In particular for up and down I get very annoying 
artefacts in the sound on the mono, as if it cant process all the midi 
comming in or something. To be clear, I manually go to the filter page 
and twist the lp-cutoff and it behaves as it should. Then I set it to 
50% and assign lp cutoff to the up/down joystick with +64 and use the 
x/y pad on the Novation instead. The sound becomes very strange with 
highly audible digital artifacts and distortion. I have checked nothing 
else is assigned to the joystick and I have recorded my x/y midi in 
Cubase to check the x/y-pad isn't sending crap data. I have no clue 
what is going on. Any one else had this problem or general 
recommendations on how to get this to work? OS is 1.08b.

Firstly, hello everyone!

New MD user of around 2 months and I've been busy writing patterns etc..

I feel ready for taking it out live with me and plan on starting with  
just the MD synced to Ableton via my fireface 400.

I'm having trouble getting the 2 to sit perfectly in time, even when  
the MD is either master or slave the two together clash like a bad DJ  
mix!

Also when using live it would be great to tweak parameters live (eg  
pitch, delay etc.) id there a way of doing this without permanently  
change my patterns?

Any help would be most appreciated as I've got a gig on friday ;)

cheers!

Luke

In live, you have the option to delay (or move forward) the midi clock 
for each midi port separately. (it's in the midi setup in option...). 
Use it, tune it, love it! =)

Anyone know about non-destructively tweaking stuff live?

about tweaking, you can mess around as much as you want. just as long as you don't save 
the kit you'll loose nothing. do you know the function+classic/extended key combo? this 
will revert the current kit to it's saved state. so you can freak all you want and with a key 
press you're back to the original. great fun live...
