In older firmware it was possible to make longer notes - note ties consisting of several notes. How can it be done now (except from making them manually using encoders afterward).
-
Hope it gets fixed, otherwise there's not much use of bsp-s for my live performance needs :(

Hi siseturist,
have you tried last firmware 2.0.0.2 ? I don't understand why you are talking about fixing something... You can still enter longer notes.
record : press a pad and hold it
using step : press the first step (ie step 5) then a second step (ie step 8) and hold it 700ms (delay is to avoid writing tied note when you just want to write 4 hihat steps at a time)
encoders : set encoders to gate and change gate value with the knob
hope it answer to your question
regards

That is a nice solution to accidental ties!
Though I was unaware of the delay and thought it was not working.
Perhaps 3-400ms is still safe? : )
-
Ok, will try again!
But it would be nice to have a manual for new firmware. How should I have known that one must wait and hold the buttons to get that function. It should be faster! 700ms is almost one second and a lot happens in music in one second. Or this waiting time should be possible to change in MCC

Yes we're working on a manual for update 2.0, it should be out early September.

Ok I will put a request. We have tried this timing and it was something we do like but maybe a little faster could be fine too.. For you information, timing starts on the first step pressed (no need to wait with both step pressed).
ie :
I press first step 2 -> a timer start
I wait 400ms
I then press step 5 (still holding step 2)
if I wait 300ms it will make a tied note between step 2 and 5
=> no need to wait each time 700ms with both step pressed except if you press both step at the same time
-
Thanks. It works!
But as it doesn't work as it used to before, then I thought the feature was taken away.
-
Well... in live situation that waiting time is just ridiculous. Must be way shorter delay for making ties!

Hi siseturist,

What is "way shorter" for you? Half the time?
