Title: CV live control issue (FW. 1.3) with BSP Monotribe
Post by: bogdanoctav on November 28, 2015, 03:07:35 pm

Hello there!

I'm using the BSP to control a Monotribe via CV and a Microkorg via MIDI.

I'm having an issue though:

BSP is a great controller for the Monotribe BSP, which is set to SEQ2.
Bt the moment a sequence is playing on SEQ1 when playing live a long note on SEQ2 (Monotribe) it will abruptly and randomly stop the note.
Sometimes after 1 bar, other times after several, at times just after pressing the note.

As soon as I mute SEQ1 or stop the playback the problem disappears. Long notes stay there as long as I want them to. 

Suggestions?  Does anyone else have this problem?

THX!

Bogdan

Seems the problem is a bit worse.
The problem ocurrs also when I record phrases with long notes for the Monotribe via CV-Control.
For instance I play a long slided phrase over the whole 16 steps.
It plays back. Now if i start the 2nd sequencer (connected via MIDI in and out to the Microkorg) or even if play on the Microkorg, the CV-control will interrupt notes.
Notes will start again only after the next Gate signal is given. Which can be extremely annoying with long notes.
If I have all notes connected alltogether, the CV-Sequencer won't even restart until I stop and start it again manually.

Anyone any hints?

Sorry if I'm misunderstanding your post but...

The korg monotribe isn't cv.

It uses korg sync, which is just on/off sync to the beat.

Upgrade your monotribe to midi with the amaze machines pack (very easy) and you have a fully sequencable machine.

Sorry

nope
monotribe has a CVgate/CVpitch input because the Clock-input can be used with a 4pin-plug...
as far as i know.
I had to buy this little adapter to use it correctly:

you have to update your Monotribe to the latest FW...

Yeah, Monotribe is CV-capable.
Since 1.3 Update via TRRS-mini jack.
But that's not the point.

The point is that if I have long notes via CV on one sequencer, they are interrupted randomly when the MIDI-sequencer is running simultaneously.

Seems to be a bug, and I hope Arturia will adress it in a future update.
