I just installed x.04 yesterday and Iāve been having this weird problem:
When Iām sequencer mode, after some minutes I canāt use the record/pause/play buttons, they only work as if I was pressing the function key.
So, If i want to go from sequencer mode to play mode, or stop playing, I canāt, I can only copy/past/clear pattern.
This happen to anybody?
I donāt have that problem.
Maybe try and redo the firmware.
Can you try and enter TESTMODE from the boot menu. (hold FUNCTION on power on)
Then press your function key repeatedly. You should see one of the Sound Selection keys flicker on and off. It not, the button is not working correctly.

The strange thing is that function works as expected for all other buttons. Iāll try to reinstall the firmware later today
Anyone know, shell I do update again on normal speed?
I loaded it without the TM1 and ran into errors until I slowed down the transfer sightly (2-5 In C6 I think).
Others were able to do so without slowing it down so it may depend on your setup.

Iāve tried to update my sps-1 mk2 several times, but no matter what i do the trig leds donāt lights up when I send the new os file, iāve already tried to switch midi cables, update via different midi interfaces (umc 404hd and digitakt) and different delay speed but my MD is not able to receive anything. Anyone have some suggestions? Sysex dump and receive works fine, iāve no clue why it behave like this.
Take us through the process. What mode is the md in when you start sending?
Problem solved dude, today iāve just bought a midi to usb cable and the update run smooth as planned

Thanks again for the updateā¦ Playing poly MD as a 16 poly synth with some midi process patchsā¦ Really cool to have relative pitchs values on diffĆ©rents tracks.
Could even play it as a 16x4 poly synth with new machine and 4 sin OSCā¦

An hour plus into the livestream and itās been truly awesome! The melodies on the EFM BD and the drone really made the beat NICE. Loved the Elektron anecdotes as well. Thanks a lot @Ess for doing this! And the devs of X.04 - Iām still in awe with what youāve done here. I literally havenāt tried other machines than GND yet, perfectly enough for making entire tracks with. Gotta go make some music with mine, hope to catch the rest of the stream later.
Feel a bit silly for even asking this and at the same time have no idea about the etiquette regarding something like this tbh, but here goes; as mentioned earlier in this thread Iāve been cobbling together a m4l device to assign the LFO routing and a couple of other things. Now this was pretty much finished but then this amazing firmware update happened. Besides the usual procrastination one of the reasons Iāve been stuck is my inability to make half-decent similes of the new LFO shapes. Iāve dug through everything thatās available on github (I think) but havenāt been able to find the required shapes. Trying to make a mock-up in Inkscape has mostly had me screaming at my computer. Is there any chance of being pointed in the direction of where I could find the LFO shapes in some sort of image form?

If there is no straightforward method, why not assign an LFO to level and look at the level of the output signal in a sample editor?

take a photo of the screen and turn it into a vector?

the high speed SID(ish) stuff was really lush, trying that now.
