RE: [xl7] Tempo Controller

2004-02-01 by Stu

Ok, I'll try to clarify things a bit...

In pattern mode, if I use the tempo controller to control the tempo, it
works fine until the pattern loops, at which point the tempo reverts to the
base tempo set for that pattern. This happens regardless of whether I use
one of the frontpanel knobs to control tempo or if I use an external
controller.

(Interestingly, if I also set the same controller to control pitch on one of
my patchs, the pitch stays at the level set by the controller when the
pattern loops and doesn't revert to its default value).

I've tried the frontpanel knobs (both in quick edit mode and as programmable
knobs) and using an external controller, as well as different CC numbers
(I've tried setting the tempo controllers to use CCs common to the realtime
controllers (i.e. the same CC numbers as MidiM and MidiN) and also ones not
used by the presets) but whatever I try the tempo still gets reset when the
pattern loops...

Can somebody else check this and confirm whether it happens to them or not?
I'm hoping I'm missing something obvious...

Regards,

Stu

Do you have a tempo event other than at tick 0 or 1?  Try looking
through the Event viewer on the conductor track (CT).  Hmm, just
noticed that you're using tempo controller.  Did this ever work?  If
not, it might be that it's resetting all controllers when it loops.
Well, things to think about...
