tap tempo not working in quad mode

Post by omnichord » Thu Dec 11, 2008 1:33 pm

When the MP-201 is in quad mode and I have any of the channels' mode set to either gate or expression the tap tempo is disabled on all the other channels in that preset. Anyone else with that problem? Any ideas?
Thanks.

No help from me yet, but I'll try mine tonight to see what the deal is.

anyone else who can test this, I appreciate it. It sounds like it might be a bug.
I'm kind of deep into the Little Phatty operating system at the moment, but I know we'll be working on a MultiPedal firmware update before too terribly long, and if this is a common problem I will make sure we sort it out.

Thanks!

I tried it and get the same behavior. It seems to only work when all four channels are LFOs. Frustratingly, it doesn't always work then, but I'm not exactly sure what all needs to be set for it to work properly.

I hadn't even played with quad mode until tonight.

I went back and checked out my unit further. In addition to tap tempo not working, none of the other channels' footswiches turn on or off when in Quad mode while any channel's mode is set to expression or gate.

Mine is working fine with exp.mode but my tap tempo is totaly strange!
It is like It was programed to set you a dotted 1/4 note instead of 1/8 note!
:?
