Hi,
Just got my SP!
I’m using ableton live and I have noticed a problem that happens with both usb midi and din midi (global parameters were reset to their initial values).
I created an External Instrument track in live for the Sub Phatty. Midi input/ouput being the SP and audio from the corresponding interface on my audio card.
With monitor set to Auto (which the default value and what I need) the SP behaves strangely.
Let’s say I set just osc1 to let say 10 (sub osc, osc2 and noise to 0). If I play some midi notes on the sub phatty and set back osc1 to 0. Then I can still here a sound from the SP when I play a note. I can hear no sound after bringing osc1 back to some value and back to 0 several times.
After some inverstigations I noticed this does happen with KNOB set to RELATIVE MODE (default value).
Setting KNOB to SNAP MODE solves the issue (but I would prefer to use relative mode).
in Relative mode (for the knobs), try working with Local Control turned OFF, if you were not already doing so. Is the behaviour the same, or different (as with Local Control ON)?
OK, thanks for the feedback! I’m sorry about the trouble; I will look at that right now.
Are you using Ableton Live on Mac or Windows OS? I can test both, but I’d rather start with the same one you’re using.
remember that (for now) Local Control is ON every time you power on the Sub Phatty, and must be turned off each time, if your setup loops MIDI through a DAW like Ableton Live (or any other DAW).
I thought this was a good idea at the time… since if you don’t know about Local Control and it’s off, it can seem like your synth is broken… but now, I’m thinking it’s better for Local Control to be persistent. I’ll change this soon.
Anyway, be sure Local Control is off and Knob Mode is Relative, and tell me if your problem is fixed or if it persists.
