1x seq trig (inf len) sounds different to a held trig

This one’s got me scratching my head a bit, what am i missing?

I’ve made a sound on the DN with an arp and some LFOs so it constantly evolves when i hold the trig down. Sounds nice. But when i add a single trig (same note, inf length, 1st condition) to step 1 of a new seq it sounds quite different to holding down the note with my finger. What could cause the difference? Shouldn’t that 1st trig just mimic a held key? Ideas appreciated cheers!

Nothing off the top of my head … you presumably press a DN Key - it has a pitch/velocity - you basically record that input to step 1 and there’s a strange difference

Are you playing it with the onboard keys (aot midi etc)

If you have a spare copy of this scenario - i’d take one element out at a time to make it describable to try and see if anything comes from that

the whole evolving LFO thing might be the area to look - presumably you reset phase to get consistency on a note press, so maybe the TRC is borking the LFO phase ? or the phase needs set

or alternatively, see if you can describe simple steps from scratch from a vanilla state

figured it out
i have the track set to scale+chord (plays a chord into the arp from a single note), but have just learned that a trig added to the seq when chord mode is enabled does not actually add that chord to the trig, it will still play a solo note. so you need to hold the trig and press ‘note/scale’ button to enter the trig’s chord edit mode, tap the C3 again, and the C minor chord is then added to the trig. dunno if that’s the way it’s supposed to work but that was the reason. cheers!
