XL-7 plus Sounds of the ZR bug?
2003-10-06 by robertabrownjr
I am curious to know if anyone else with a "Sounds of the ZR" ROM in their XL-7 has this problem. Turn on the XL-7 and go to patch/preset mode. Turn on "Audition" to listen to patterns that demonstrate the patch sounds. Scroll through a few sounds and things should sound normal. Got to bank 0 of the ZR ROM and scroll to patch 70. On my machine this patch causes all sounds to become truncated, as if the sustain and decay have been chopped down. Once you play patch 70 of the ZR ROM while Audition is on you cannot play any patches normally. Changing patches does not help. The sound is always truncated. Playing the pads or a keyboard still gives you truncated sounds. The problem will not go away unless you either power down or you change to some other mode such as pattern play. There are a few other patches on the ZR ROM that trigger this problem and it is repeatable. I have not noticed this phenomenon from any other ROM in my XL-7. Can someone confirm this bug? I am using the latest OS in my XL-7. Robert
