Pro 3, firmware OS.. requests.. improvements.. incoming :-)

So, I just realized...  you can play the sequencer like a keyboard (hit Record twice so it flashes, then press the sequence step buttons).

But my fingers don't work that way. ("Scrunched in" and not feeling at all like a keyboard.)

So now, I want to play the sequence steps from the keyboard!
(Maybe all the lower/bottom 16 white keys? - From the bottom C to the high D?)

I just saw "Catch Up" mode for the dials on the Iridium!

Please add this?! (The way the dials work on the Pro 3 is crap. [I'm in Jump mode.])
I've lost far too many patches to the menu display switching, and thus changing the wrong parameter.  - I think, from the dials "finalizing" their position.

I love the base design and tone of the Pro 3, but the software is not done!

I've never bought a synth that didn't work correctly before.

I really hope Focusrite can fix the software for the Pro 3.

+1 here on real-time step recording, for me that would be the most useful update.

PLEASE: CV input setting that will advance the arpeggiator with a trigger.

Yeah, I'll +1 this as part of a wider effort to improve the Pro 3's CV input capability, including Gate In and Sync In. Sync In could actually double as a path to advancing the arpeggiator, in conjunction with the HOLD button.

This is a combined question and a feature request.Let's say I hook up 1 external modular oscillator via the cv's and I'd like to now make the Pro 3 work in 4 note paraphonic mode to also count the external osc when I'm playing notes on the keyboard or when arpeggiated sequences are playing and so forth. Is this already possible? If not, could be a neat feature, and ideally it would be extendable up to a good number, idk, 6 or 12 or something (actually, realising now that there's only 4 cv's, so 4 different outs to control the pitch and then sending audio back via the cv ins possibly or a mix of all of them via the audio in?, would yield a total of 3+4 = 7 voice paraphony) (Unless controlling them somehow with midi, but I also see this is starting to sound over complicated) This is probably the first thing I'd do if I was to add a small modular system to the pro 3, that means I can essentially play thicker chords through the filters for pads.

End of measure quantization when switching between sequencer phrases. It would be nice hit the Phrase "B" button and just have Sequence A play until the end of it's 16 steps before switching over to B.

"Back" button for accidental program/bank changes while editing/creating a sound.

It just happened to me again yesterday, had put together this really nice generative sound from scratch, using all the sequencer tracks, and while editing a sequencer track I accidental turned the bank-change dial .. and there it went.

I'm using the Pro3 since some months and i'm really happy with the machine but if i have a wish, i would see some more little effects in the machine like something like "sample rate reduction" to make more "lo-fi" sounds...

Oh man! I've done that one a few times. It certainly elicits a loud, "Noooo!!".
And you know that file is sitting in the edit buffer in there somewhere. - Hopefully that's an easy interface addition, to get back to the edit buffer...

(glances covetously at the Take 5's filter bypass feature...)

Hello,
since Pro 3 OS 1.0.2.3 was a new feature introduced, called New Sequencer Double Tap Step Edit Record Mode. My new Pro 3 has the latest OS 1.2.0.4 . Every time I try to use this feature, the entries I made this way, were deleted after pressing the record button in order to leave this mode. Is this a known bug?
Thank you.
Oliver

same experience, can confirm the erase phenomena, not knowing the way around to keep edited values.

Please post here....

First for me would be, UI overhaul and.....

Please read my newest post regarding my experience with the cracking issue in two consecutive units....

The difference recognized by Sequential about the left-right channel level of the headphone outputs and main outputs up to 2 dB is noticeable and annoying for a premiun synth like Pro 3:

-Is it possible from Global to incorporate an option to adjust these levels?
- Or better, it would be possible to do an automatic adjustment of the L /R balance as part of the calibration procedure. (Sequential has already done this on other synths of the brand)

Thanks

I'm kind of going with the fact that this synth is so awesome, that's it's going to have have quirks.
(In fact I wonder about variations per build.  -  I have a have better one than you!  [kidding?] )

[W07]

i wonder if selection of filter type could ever become a modulation destination. That would be amazing for sequences and arps

[Elric]

I just realized, listening back to Pink Floyd (Wish You Were Here), that the exact way the glide between the notes worked was very specific, and crucial to the sound of those leads.
That's got to be out of patent by now, and... I want it!

[Mr_You]

Not sure if this feature is technically possible...

Could the Pro 3 self-generate it's own wavetables?

I find the concept very interesting.  Would be an amazing feature.
