As someone who sent it back: I would wait for at least the first following firmware update. I suspect it will not take very long as the beta testers are already using it.

If you work a lot with your own samples and a lot of presets and pattern donāt buy it now. I would wait until it is clear what happens with the memory. I wait since one week for a response of my "sample memory full messages because i cannot work without workarounds so fun is zero. And there is no Memory indicator! Why? It feels currently like 200 to 400 MB not more. Is the new OS a RAM Eater? Could be, so wait. Now i will sent it back, but they do not answer or fixes that issue.

This happened to me too . I mentioned this 2 days ago in my support ticket about the trig copy error that " i somehow managed to load a sample on the OFF slot and now every empty sampler plays that sound and it even doubles up with the selected sample on subtracks " .

Yes, TV is a diva. In my youthful naivety, I thought I could solve the storage problems by simply setting all tracks to MIDI, no no.
A few observations after a week:
- Significant MIDI latency and/or jitter to the point that itās unusable.
- MIDI device channel doesnāt save consistently, it seems to reset to some arbitrary channel after powering off and back on.
- Unable to unmute subtracks under certain circumstances (unsure of repro steps yet)
- Not a bug per se but the scale indicator when adjusting note pitch using the p-lock method is confusing: visually, it looks identical to a p-lock (white background displayed for out-of-scale notes). I would suggest showing an exclamation mark beside the note instead.
- On related note, it would be nice to be able to reset notes to their default value by pressing the encoder. Iām sure many of us have gotten used to this behaviour from other machines.

Thanks for honest replies to my question. This confirms that itās probably better wait nowā¦
Hi all, we have a message regarding Tonverk and a new OS planned for next Monday (September 29). We just wanted to let you know here as well as itās obviously very much relevant, even if the main place for discussion is in the āIntroducingā topic. Thanks.

The triggers brightness changes if a subtrack is muted, thats all i know.
In your case: if track 1, 2 and 5 uses the subtrack machine and one of the 8 subtracks of each track is muted that would be the result.

Thats great to hear! thanks!
Yes - just clicking track 3 from being on track 2
For multisampling, Iām finding that loading existing or new multisamples is extremely inconsistent. āFailed to Load Instrument / Multiplayer Sample Errorā followed by āSample Memory Full / Canāt Load Sampleā occurs for both factory multisamples and my own. Iāve tried and encountered this on empty patterns where no other samples are loaded in other slots.
Iāve verified that the samples Iāve made are 48khz. They arenāt extremely long, the sample period is less than 1 second, etc. This may be redundant if others have reported it but Iām encountering a lot of issues with multisampling (and how theyāre being loaded/managed) that is making the feature essentially unusable for now.

Same issue, i think the memory is very limited or its a bug. Support ticket would help. Iāve created one last week. Still no answer. Start with an empty project and do not use long sample and many time then its possible to do some stuff on the TV without a lot of WAIT messages
Iām having this same issue

The multisample trigger latencey is making the unit unusable for my intended purpose. Itās why I bought the instrument and I canāt use it as it. Thanks.

I looked into it more closely and thereās no change, even after switching machines on those tracks.
Itās a bit hard to see in the photo, but you can clearly notice the difference in brightness.
I have that too. Even with a blank pattern I can only load 2/3 multi samples with 2/3 subtracks.
All factory content.
Hopeful its a bug, as most of my currrent jams canāt use more than 4 tracks.
Bug: Multi Player. Velocity Switch doesnt work correctly or Keyboard / Veloctiy on trigger page
Multi: Foul Slap eg. Note C0
switch is in between vel 106 / 107 OR!!! 105/106 depends if you go up or down with the vel. Not tested with triggers, external keyboard or other notes.
I formatted my new 256GB card, started by copying the factory content over and checking what content was available step by step, this time after loading my user content my presets are empty. I have the āAllā tab with no content.
When Iām in a record mode saving a project freezes a device (Func + Save proj). Sometimes it freezes when Iām saving not in a record mode.

Did the presets eventually come back?
User presets should go in: \User\Presets
Factory presets reside in: \Elektron\Tonverk Factory Library\4-Presets
