Pattern changes in drum engine sequencer

[Marxon]

Hi all,

i do not really understand the pattern change behavoir in the drum kit 2 patch.

To play pattern 1 i push O1 Pitch, to play pattern 2 i push O2 Pitch -> erveything OK

But doing a pattern change from pattern 5 back to 1 then the resulting pattern change

seems to depend from the actually step which is playing? May i missed something, but i searched

the manual and forum about this without succsess.

Can someone explain it to me, please?

Best regards

Maybe you are playing one or more keys on an external keyboard at the same time?

Because pattern changes are not only controlled by the matrix buttons, but also by received MIDI Note On/Off commands.

To doublecheck that this behaviour isn't related to a hardware issue, I would propose to unplug the MIDI IN cable after you've ensured that there is no actively played MIDI key.

Alternatively you could select another MIDI channel and/or reduce the keyboard zone for the drum instruments (ENS->INS)

Thereafter press and depress the PLAY button - this will initiate an internal "all notes off" - just to ensure.

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Hi TK,

first: i was wrong it happens on pattern 6 not 5.

No matter how they are played (via midi keyboard or matrix buttons) or

if the midi cable is plugged or not.

The changes are not randomly:

Changing to pattern 1 at 1/4bar = "pattern 1a"

Changing to pattern 1 at 2/4bar = "pattern 1b"

Changing to pattern 1 at 3/4bar = "pattern 1c"

Changing to pattern 1 at 4/4bar = "pattern 1d"

also

Changing to pattern 2 at 1/4bar = "pattern 2a" and so on..
