Hi Amos/Gil
when changing the octave from 8’ to 4’ it always flicks first into 16’ it’s very fast but always happens.
Same happens if changed from 4’ to 2’ still flicks in to 16’
not sure if its the editor of the sub37 doing it.
It’s not a big problem at all but it happens
It’s a joy to work with the sub and the editor great work!

ok so I just tried it not connected to the computer.
don’t think this is a bug now sorry 
when its inbetween the octave settings it just works as the 16’ so probably just how the synth was intended to work
There are “shorting” and “non shorting” rotary switches on the market, I assume the octave switches are “non shorting”. That means that a contact (position) closes only if the last contact is open. The open position may be interpreted as 16", so if you very slowly turn the switch, you may hit this “open” position and the software shows this. You may hear it also.
cheers,
Bernard
Yes, this is a “feature” (at least, an inherent attribute) of the type of rotary switches being used on the hardware. In between switch positions, the switch becomes electrically open, which is logically the same as its lowest position. So if the switch positions are numbered 0,1,2,3 (for a 4-position switch) then as you turn the switch it actually sends out position data as follows: 0,1,0,2,0,3. (turning from left to right). The “zero” states are very brief, but they are real.
Fun fact: the Voyager does this too when you turn its octave knobs; if you turn them slowly you will hear the octave jump to its lowest setting in between switch positions.
I see thanks! Bernard / Amos
Yes on 2nd look I thought it may have worked some way like that.
It was more when I seen the editor flicking back, that’s why I was thinking maybe it was a bug.
