Strange behaviour when using pads to send pitch over midi

Sooo, this is probably something painfully obvious, but I’m having a hard time trying to figure it out.

Each time I’m plugging my Prophet Rev2 to be controlled by AR, when I go into chromatic mode on the track I’ve chosen to be the one sending midi, when I hit the pads “in real time”, I get a certain pitch out of the Prophet, but then, when I place a trig on a step, and hit the same pad (still in the chromatic mode) while holding said trig, to enter the pitch I want to be sent on this step, the sequenced sound is an octave higher than the one I hear when I hit the pads.

Any way to make the sequenced sound the same pitch I hear when I hit the pad without sequencing?
