Step Rec strange behaviour

[Schnork]

I don’t own a Digitone, but reminds me of this thread:

Digitakt Step Seq not Automatically Advancing

I am new to the world of the Elektron Digitakt so just discovered the Step Seq Mode. The step seq does not automatically advance to the next step but rather i have to manually advance it with the arrow buttons. I watched several videos and even jumped in discord with a friend trying to troubleshoot it. I am using a new project and updated the firmware. Neither fixed the issue. Has anyone experienced this or have a suggestion? [Step Seq help]
