Re: PX-7 Slowdown (I got it too now!)

2004-02-18 by mike

I checked out your pattern and the same thing happens on my 
PX-7!!  I first noticed a lag when selecting tracks, then scrolling 
through presets on the screen was delayed and jumpy.  

I switched the four drum tracks to "Funk Review" and everything 
was back to normal.  

Another interesting thing is that I'm using the same preset (005 
Studio) on a couple of patterns I'm working on.  They work just 
fine.  I haven't recorded any knob movements in any of the 
patterns or applied any effects yet.  (Just thought I'd throw that out 
there.)

Also, I do have the Proteus and X-Lead ROM's installed.
