First Crunch.. trying to adjust note lenght in grid edit mode
2004-07-24 by gonzinigonz
Hi just had my first lock up of the XL-7. This the first time ive tryed to edit a pattern while in "Grid mode" with "Edit Pattern" set on the "NOTE" screen. (only had the unit for a week..) I programmed a note at the start of the bar using the Grid edit in real time.(pattern is 1 bar long) The preset sound was an arp (edited..), so i wanted to set the duration of the programmed note to a bar ie dur:04.000. All good that worked. Then i wanted to place another note using the grid edit mode on the 9th step, so to re-trigger the arp twice in the bar. I reduced the note length in the edit pattern screen to dur:02.000, placed a note on step 9 (using the grid edit) and set the duration to dur:02.000 That worked. Then i deleted the 2nd note on the 9th step (using grid edit), set the cursor under "<->" to scroll back to the first event. Thats where the problem happened. All the front panel locked up, it was still playing. If i pressed the edit preset button it would just play the track id been editing (after a delay). If i pressed it again all the drum tracks would come back. Ive just done this again and the same problem has occured again.. Is this a bug, or am i not supposed to edit note duration in grid edit mode using this screen? How are you supposed to edit the duration of a note in grid edit mode if this is the case? Only by hard switching off and back on again can the problem be corrected. I had no errors flash up on the LCD on restarting. Do you feel i should reset the unit if this isint a known bug? Im on V2.0 O/S Any help appreiated. Regards Gonz
