GabrielWhat if we provide a way where where only the muted steps are rotated?
Confirmed!
It doesn’t happen when turning the PIT knob, but when pressing keys in the note circle the velocity indeed resets to 60. Thanks for reporting, this will no doubt be fixed.

I’m running the 1.44 OS (well, almost) and cannot reproduce the problem you describe. Could you tell us exactly what steps you took to get this behavior?
And when grabbing the step in Page mode (EDIT mode led orange), and turning the Pitch knob, do you get the same problem?

Hi Adam,
I understand an Octopus is a lot of cash, but the moment I had the money available I ordered one. So yes, it’s a lot of money, but (imo of course) the Octo is definitely worth it. It all depends on what you plan to do with it, I guess.
Did you check out the Nemo?
Thanks for you answer on question #2.
Afaik the OS already handles chained tracks for record select. I’ve seen code where the record select state is nicely moved to the next row in the chain. But I’ll give it a check.
Hi rope, ;P
that’s a good suggestion. I’d go for the regular DAW concept of Play and Record modes indeed. We’re very close now since arming tracks, rechanneling and monitoring works as expected now. The only thing we need is an actual Record mode state, which doesn’t exist yet in the code.
We may also have a problem with the REC button, which is not only used to arm tracks in combination with the SEL buttons (not a problem), but also to arm a page by using it on its own. Hopefully we can use the PAGE + REC button to arm a page to make the REC button free for the normal DAW use of a Record mode.
I’ll give that a try!
Maybe you already statet it, but how does the MPC behave when slaved to Live in your setup?
And what exactly is your MIDI setup? How’s the stuff connected?

Weird as in timing? Notes?
But that’s a problem local to the MPC, no?
I don’t see how the Octopus in involved in this picture.So you actually double clicked the ‘200’ button to put it in slave mode, and it lights green on your Octo?

I had to offset the sync by around 250 ms for it to work at all, and it’s still not 100% on the beat. When I tried to hook up my MPC 2500 as well things got weirder still.Hi Carl, how did you set up the system. Which of the two is master, which is slave?
