OB6 vco frequency readout incorrect

OB6 vco frequency readout incorrect
« on: July 21, 2020, 10:58:13 AM »
Hello,

On our OB6, the readout of the pitch is wrong. The only way to correct it seems to be:

1. Hold down (for example) the A key and tune both oscillators until unless the readout says 'A' on each.
2. Globally transpose up by 3 steps
3. Do this for every single patch.

No amount of globals+0 gets the synth to align itself, only these manual steps correct it.

Without global transpose +3 the LED display always reads 2 steps down from where it should.

Is this a bug? The last firmware update did not fix it- we are running version 1.5.5

Anyone else have the same issue?

Have you had a look at the pitch bend wheel to make sure it isn't behaving badly?
