When I’m jamming on the Syntakt Elektron, but not necessarily want to save the changes, I turn of the Syntakt. But after I turn it on again, the settings from before the power cut are still there. When I manually reload the project, then it is restored to it’s actual “saved” state. However, when I don’t do this for a few times, it will overwrite the actual save with the “unsaved” version. I then end up with a version that I didn’t want and didn’t save. Is there a way to retrieve the original?
This seems like a bug since I did not explicitly wanted to save my progress. And as soon as I restart, I have to manually load the project.
Yet others, correctly, might expect their progress should be saved within the temporary working version and not simply be erased at power off !
in any case this isn’t a bug, it’s intentional functionality - you need to reload a saved state of whatever data you have tweaked and presumably saved at some desired state in the past
Not a fix but when I get a pattern on the DN to a sweet spot and want to play with it, I copy it to a new pattern and tweak that. This preserves the original in case it doesn’t reload correctly.
The syntake remebers the current state when you power it off.
If you don’t actually save the project to the file though then the file on the disk shouldn’t change. Just reload the last saved version if you want to “undo” any changes you made.
You can press FN+Yes to make a copy of a pattern and FN+No to restore it after you mess it up.
