i've had no problems until today with my microbrute -- hopefully it's just a software fix.
to start, when i turn on the microbrute, when the sequencer knob is at, say, 6, it will play sequence 1. this happens no matter where the knob is pointing when i power it on. however if i turn the knob away from its starting position and then back, it will play the pattern that is actually at that location, and not pattern 1.
until today! the knob was at 6, i turned it on, it played pattern 1 like usual, so i turned the knob away and back to 6....but sequence 1 seems permanently loaded into slot six as well now :/ i wonder if i did something like move the switch to "record" and back to "off" before doing anything else, which may have just saved that pattern since i didn't add any other input?
either way, seems like an issue with this is that even if the knob isn't on pattern 1 when you turn on the synth, it will still play pattern 1 regardless, until you move the knob.
