Hi there,
I’ve searched the forum but didn’t really find an answer to this one. (Sorry if I missed it, hate wasting your time!)
I understand the “PC per part” concept. But I don’t understand why the OT seems to remember what the last PC sent was, and decides NOT to send it if it’s identical, REGARDLESS of the part change.
Example: I have my Digitone set to A01.
The OT is on A01 too, and uses Part 1. I program a PC on a OT miditrack, say 100 on channel 10 (DN’s autochannel).
I hit start on OT, the DN changes to G05 as expected.
Now I start building my song, and change patterns on the DN, say the next in line, so G06.
I now change to B01 on the OT. No PC’s were programmed in Part 1 of the new bank. So the DN remains on G06. As expected.
Now I go back to A01 on the OT. I would expect the DN to change back to what I wanted to be the starting point: G05. Nope: nothing changes: DT remains on G06. If I now change the PC on the OT to anything else, and hit start again, the DN will change accordingly.
So basically the OT remembers, the previous PC it sent, even if I change banks/parts in between and makes a decision accordingly, to send or not to send.
What I want is that when I switch to a “song” (I currently use a bank per song) I can program PC’s (or whatever my other devices need to change their config) on the OT so that I have always the exact same starting point for that song, all synths being ready to go.
But because of this “memory” thing this will not work: the OT doesn’t know if I have changed stuff manually on the other devices, so it all becomes arbitrary.
I want the OT to send ALWAYS when I change banks. (Not necessarily when I change parts inside a bank though)
Did I miss some setting somewhere?
Thanks!
Dirk
