Hey Crew!
So I’ve set up T2 and T3 to record from CD. settings on them are: INCD, RLEN:9, TRIG:ONE, LOOP:ON.
when the sequence hits the record trig, it records but only loops sometimes. the situation has been rectified sometimes by reloading the session after a save. sometimes also by tacking the rec trig of and putting it back on.
ami missing something?
thanks in andvance!
Where is the rec trig?
Where is the Flex trig?
How long is the pattern?
The recording has to be finished to be looped.
hi!
On T2 its right on step 1.
i’m not sure what a flex trig is
the pattern is 9 steps. the recording does finish according to the screen when i switch to AED while the sequence is going. the puzzling thing is that it loops sometimes and sometimes not.
Flex trig = shorter for regular trig on the Flex track that plays the recording.
How can it loop if the rec trig is on, with the same recording length as the pattern length?
Not sure about what you’d want. You can use a one shot rec trig to record once…
in that case, yes, it is on a flex trig. the pattern length on this particular session is the same but the rate is 1/2. on another session when the flex trig worked the pattern length was different.
i just want to have the patterns varied by the processing on the what was captured by the flex trig.
Even when i switch to a one shot rec trig, it doesn’t loop when the loop function is clearly ON. looking more and more like a bug
Hard to tell if you don’t give all details about patterns length, scale…
Be aware : Track recorder RLEN is (unfortunately) not concerned by scale.
You mean Tempo Multiplier = 1/2 or RATE = 32?
I made a test, it seems to loop as intended even with 1/2 scale.
PLAYBACK/SRC > LOOP=AUTO or ON
i see. i checked the SRC loop mode and it’s on. by rate i guess i meant how fast the sequence played on that particular track.
Actually in OT this parameter is Tempo Multiplier, not scale. I have to edit my post!
I really think it’s a bug. Can’t seem to see why the Rec Trigs on the flex tracks work sometimes and others not.
Any chance you have changed pitch ever so slightly (including pitch changes by LFO)? If there’s nothing more to read because you’re slightly pitched up, playback will stop. Encoders are easy to whack out of position inadvertantly.
Didn’t check my LFOs will see if that’s the problem.
Thanks!
EDIT: But there is no time stretching happening on the tracks from the get go.
Yup. Nothing going on with pitch shifting or the LFOs. Something is up.
Is it just the track and not the whole pattern that has 1/2 tempo multiplier?
If so you might need to set the master pattern length to 18 or the track will get cut short…
If not that need more info, starting with what step is the play trig on?
I think I found my problem but discovered a new one.
There seems to be some instability if the record trig is not on the same step as the sequencer trig and it is manifested in my case as the recorded sample not playing. What helps this is placing the sequencer trig where the Rec trig is AND/OR changing the pattern length for the track(weird!)
The problem I found is with the LFO not being able to modulate the Start of the playhead. For example, I want the sample to have random start points via LFO with a pulse shape it doesn’t really happen. Anybody have any solutions to this second conundrum? Anybody experiencing the same problems with Rec Trigs?
I don’t know if you checked this, but, as I mentioned, Rec Setup RLEN don’t take account of the track tempo multiplier in Track Scale menu.
Rec trigs and regular trigs may not match if you don’t consider that.
It can, as long as the play head is before the rec head. Lfo on start potentially make the play head after.
AFAIK Start time values depend on RLEN, lfo speed depends on track tempo multiplier.
Tests and maths needed! 
Also LFO phase (normal/inverted counts.
Really helpful guys! Thanks!
Cheers
