I’ve had my OT2 for two years and didn’t realize you could solo tracks in the mix page by holding cue + hitting trig 1-8. Couldn’t get any of my thru tracks to play audio with scenes off and thought I was losing my mind. Nope, just a track with nothing on it was soloed. Pretty sure something in AUM sent the midi signal to solo it though, which didn’t help with all the confusion…

It’s funny because the old Korg manuals are hard to use for the opposite reason.
I’ve got a Wavestation SR and the manual is about 350 pages in three separate volumes.

Lol, yeah, the older korg sound creation stations were like the Stephen King library, and as scary.

In the first months, learning OT is very often debugging a situation where the machine doesn’t do what you want it to do.
Frustration is a part of it I guess…
With patience and some time, you’ll get your own workflow.
And see how rewarding a machine it is.

Yeah, I was about to suggest that too. Sometimes a knob LOOKS like it is in default position, but it isn’t, really.
Don’t. OT doesn’t like claps.

No one likes claps, that’s why it’s there.

Once I used a clap (not for me), it was also repeating, and OT gave me an electric shock. Then I had a car crash, fell in the river, rats bit me, then a boat hit me. I never used a clap since.

The clap wasn’t for me. I was asking for a friend.

If you’re pressing an encoder to clear a lock, it’s pretty easy to accidentally change the value by 1 or 2 when you release it, too. That’s gotten me more than once.
This catches me on the midi channel selection pretty often. BUT often enough that I know exactly what to check. Trying something new with intention, troubleshooting a problem, it’s all valuable learning.
Digital manual so you can search a term because yeh the printed index is terrible
