3 problems - maybe bugs

23 Nov 2008, 17:57

Hi,
I found three (still not discussed - I guess) problems on my FG.

1. Switching sound in FAVORITE mode cancels transposition and octave shift. If you transpose and then switch the sound in the FAVORITE mode it jumps back to original tune. It does not happen if you switch the sound in SINGLE, LIVE or STUDIO mode. Not even when switching between SINGLE, LIVE and STUDIO modes.

2. Erasing sysex messages by phrase editing does not function. I had to erase it event by event in microscope editing.

3. In song play screen when 24 track are displayed if you click by mouse on the lower part of the track line to choose a track the track bellow is chosen. It happens only on the left side of the screen (e.g. on play/mute switch) and down from the 11th track.
I don't know whether I described that clearly (I'm not an englishman) so I marked the area at the attached picture. But this is from the original manual - there are not 24 track (16 only).

Anybody experinced something I described too?

Karel,

If you transpose or octave shift while in Single, Live Set or Studio Set modes, the keyboard will stay that way until you switch it back manually. In Favorites the shifts are registered when you save the favorite. For instance, if you have a live set that you have shifted say 2 half steps from F to G, and then register it as a favorite, then it will always be shifted when you select that favorite.

I think it is made to work that way.

Don't know about #2 or #3.

Hi Owen,

I don't think it should be this way. Transposing and octave shifting is like "temporal system setting". It should stay until you switch it off, like on other instrument (e. g. JV). In Studio or Live mode you can save parts shifted and in Single mode you can save tones shifted. Then if you register it as favorite it stays shifted. Common transposing and octave shifting shift the MIDI messages coming from the kyeboard to the tone generator. That's my opinion.

Favorites are saved with their transposition settings intact. This is actually a really cool feature.

So if you want a favorite Single patch, Live Set, or Studio Set at a particular transposition setting, register it at that setting.

Karel:

The picture you attached shows you are at an older software version. You should update to version 1.20.

Hi Dan,

the picture is taken from the User's Manual (pdf) just for illustration for I can't save screenshots with the public software. I have the 1.20 of course on my FG.
I noted that it happened at the screen with 24 tracks. I just wanted to show the area where it happen at the picture.

Hi Karel,

i have also this problem!
I made a post here in the forum before you, some days ago, the adress is below.
We can only hopy that it is going to be fixed.

Btw: i made a good experience using a mouse with a free running mouse-wheel, so long (sound/patch or other) lists can be fast navigated

Some big compliment also, because the presets and sounds are switching in Realtime and all Menu-Actions are very fast processed

Again for Dan Krisher, because he didn't answer there:

The third bug (left side click track bug) is existing in Firmware-Revision 1.31

Best Regards,
Tobias
