BUG - Arpeggio transposing when recording
« on: July 21, 2017, 10:20:31 am »
Hi,
1. Select a scale, e.g. E major.
2. play with the arpeggiator, e.g. E, G#, B
3. record to sequence
4. play. it will now transpose your arp from C major to E maj, so it will play G#, C, D#
5. ??? :'( :'(

Hi spirit68,

I think you meant "transpose to E". Transpose is SEQUENCER 1/2 + Pad. Scale is SHIFT +  Pad.

This is normal. The notes are recorded in the memory as they are received. C is recorded as C, D# is recorded as D#, etc.
Transpose will not alter the recorded notes in the BSP, but it will change them on the flow (change what will be sent via MIDI), while playing. This way, the transposition is not destructive and your original sequence is kept. Moreover, the pads, when acting like a keyboard, are not affected by the transposition.
Your notes are recorded as E, G#, B, but as you ask for transposing your arpeggio +2 tones, it is then played:
E + 2 tones, G# + 2 tones, B + 2 tones = G#, C, D#

If you go back to C transposition, you will hear your E, G#, B sequence.
Scales are used to enter notes via the encoders and can now be used to convert an existing sequence to a new scale (since firmware v2.0.0.2).

Best,
Y.

After consideration, I guess you are right. You should hear the same thing than when recording, otherwise this is too much confusing.
It will be modified this way.

Thank you a lot. I understand the idea that i might be able to play everything in Cmaj and automatically transposing it to whatever scale applies to me, but I still want it to be consistend. there should be an global on/off option for that. And as you said: record what you hear. :-)
P.S. I remember similar issues with "hold note pad and pressing step" and "hold step button and pressing note pad".

spirit68,
I sent you a new unofficial firmware version. Is it behaving like you expect now?

Best,
Y.
