RE: [oberheim] Re: Autotune on OBXa suddenly shutting down all voices

2015-08-27 by 65 Lotus

Did you see/try the instructions at the bottom of the link below about
voices shutting down with the auto tune function?

 

Also, there's a firmware upgrade not too long ago if you haven't done that
yet (pick the right one for your processor part number).

So I finally figured out the problem with this machine. I was on the phone
with Bruce Forat about my Linn 9000 and he suggested disabling the midi kit
and taking the machine back to stock. I did so an autotune works fine now. 

 

Unfortunately my memory seems to not be working anymore on the OBXa though.
I can only use manual mode. Anything I save to memory doesn't work. Even
loading the presets via tape backup leaves memory not working correctly. It
seems like some things change with the changing of patches i.e. Saw to Pulse
etc. but the sound that comes out is just a slow attack rumble/whine of
dischord. 

 

So any ideas there? And I'd REALLY love to keep this MIDI kit in. I emailed
Tony at Encore MIDI but as per usual I get no response. So any ideas there
are welcome too. 

 

Sincerely,

Rich Clarke
