Title: knobs wont respond
Post by: Tonefall on April 12, 2016, 11:38:22 AM

Hi, i just got my prophet 12 and im having trouble making custom patches, it seems when i try to adjust each oscillators theres no response, to the tweaking. no change in the sound what so ever, im on user patches, and ive even turned 3 of the other oscillators of focusing on only 1 . anyone got any pointers how to start a patch from scratch???

That sounds pretty weird!

You can set a new patch via the Global menu->24. Basic Patch or on the keyboard press Latch 1 button and hold button at the same time.

Yes, but you should be able to edit the user patches as well. I'm not sure why that Is not working for you.

I had thoose sharp edges too, not a huge fan of the keys, but just about everything else, especially the good possability of expression..
