Hello to everyone,
My octatrack ignores once on two the parameter of the rlen and keeps recording when this pass the audio was not recorded in the buffer,
I am forced to restart the OT to fix the problem.
I create new project, i format memory card. Always same…
More details please. What are your Rec Setup 1 and Rec Setup 2 settings ?
When it records longer, there’s no sound ?
Do you use a one shot rec trig ?
Any scale setup modification ?
Rec1 setup :
AB : -
CD : -
RLEN : 64
TRIG : ONE2
SRC3 : T8 (Master Track)
LOOP : ON
PAGE 2 :
FIN 0
FOUT 0
QREC OFF
QPL OFF
AB OFF
CD OFF
I use OShot Trig
Scale Setup : Per track - master 64
When record normal same, no sound.
I change the bank for new song, And i use a Flex Machine Recording Buffer 1.
And it doesn’t always work but sometime or with reboot.
Ok bank change means part change means potential recording problems.
My guess is that it memorize the previous part RLEN setting. Make same settings Rec Setup settings for the other bank (especially RLEN=64, SRC3=T8) and check again.
Reboot is not necessary I think. A project reload is enough.
even without changing banks now… the one shot trig ignores RLEN and does not stop. it’s very boring … when I reboot it’s better, but I can not restart in full show! Is no isolated problem, every 10min/15min reboot needed…
Maybe something with arm/rearm One Shot?
No, disarm track (one shot) not responding when the record ignores RLEN 
As I wrote, reload project should suffice, no need to reboot.
If you modify and set again RLEN to 64, it should work, without project reload.
It seems to revert to RLEN = MAX setting.
Are you absolutely sure there’s no part change, no bank change after reload or reboot ? If it’s the case, set other parts settings with RLEN 64 and SRC3 T8.
I had a similar bug with part changes.
What is your recording track scale ?
Per track : master 64
recreates a project by setting the parameter scale pattern on normal and this work, maybe i missîng a master lenght somewhere, thanks for your help,
Cheers
I was about to ask why “Per Track” with Master 64. 
I know I’m necro-ing a long-dead post. But this bug is still here. The octatrack can fail to load the right part settings for recordings when switching parts. Luckily I can set the same settings for both my parts.
Glad this post was here, I thought I was going insane. Very silly.
Do you save parts?
Yep
Does it happen after power cycle without changing REC SETUP parameters?
Same bank ?
I’m not 100% sure the exact set up now.
Pretty sure it was same bank, creating a new part/pattern with different rec setup params. The rec parameters did not change functionally (even though the UI said they did) until I power-cycled the unit. I think the issue also happened with a new project I created in the same power-cycle.
I could reproduce that bug systematically after tweaking rec setup of current part : next part keeps same tweaked setting.
But IIRC it didn’t happen after power cycle, without tweaking.
Maybe a project reload suffice…
I also remember that the problem was particular or persistent from bank 1 part 1 to bank 2 part 1, that implies a part change.
I make use of parts often, and when skipping around between banks working on different things, I’ve noticed OT can “forget” to do something.
I usually save all parts and reload, then everything is back to where it should be.
Please contact Elektron support!
Who knows, we might have a bugfix one day ^^
