Having a number of strange issues with my Rev2

Having a number of strange issues with my Rev2
« on: February 19, 2020, 05:08:13 PM »
I am experiencing all sorts of bizarre behavior.

When pressing the second-to-top B key on the keyboard, after 6 presses it triggers what sounds like a basic triangle or sine wave for the next two key presses instead of whatever the patch should be doing. This happens in all patches but is most noticeable in the Init patch. While this round-robin behavior is kind of quirky and interesting, it is not always desirable!

The synth no longer seems to be able to receive MIDI clock. I know the MIDI connection is fine because I can trigger notes via my DAW, but when it is in MIDI Slave mode it just displays dashes where it should be displaying the tempo of the master clock. The sequencer and arpeggiator no longer work in this mode. Internal sync is fine. This is a recent development. However, when it WAS working, a phantom sequence would play in the Init patch when I started my master clock. Meaning, even though I did not program a sequence in, it played a strange collection of notes. It would display as not having a sequence recorded.

I hoped that doing a factory reset would fix these issues, but it seems I cannot do that either. It says to press "Write" to start the reset process but pressing it does nothing.

What do I do??

My general recommendations would be:

1. Make sure you're running the latest version of the operating system (1.1.5.9)

2. Next, run the global calibration routine.    If its not calibrating correctly, try turning off the Rev, unplugging USB/MIDI cables, then power it back on and try to run the calibration routine again.   Let it do its thing... it can take a while to calibrate all the voices.   


If those don't fix it, probably best to contact support:
