OB-8 chord function question...

2009-11-18 by steveoberheimwright

Ive recently got an OB-8 and am confused by its chord function (an aspect that I like to use)...

In my example-the hold button works-I then let go of the keys and hold button and it holds the chord.  When I press 'chord' button on holding a chord-the held chord stops. The manual says that the notes stop and I get a chord on the keys...

Strangely tho-when I play the keys - the chord I played doesnt hold - and I get a single note as normal....

I wonder whether its the transpose limit - but I cant really work it out...

Can anybody help here? Is this a revision change...?

Thanks
