64 alt tunings?

[Rudy Nicoletti]

Hi all,
the Trigon 6 appendix A in the manual describes 64 alternative tunings (page 65). I can only access the first 16 tunings. Does anyone know how to access the remaining ones?

Thanks

Hi, I think that's the old manual you're looking at because version 1.2 describes only the 16 pre-loaded alternative tunings that are actually available. Maybe there were 64 in the earlier firmware as well - I don't know, sorry.

Could anyone confirm if there are any firmware updates or patches that might unlock additional tunings beyond the 16 currently accessible in version 1.2?

This is a really interesting find! It's a bummer that the current firmware only supports 16 of the 64 tunings mentioned in the older manual. It's like finding a hidden level in a game, but it's locked behind a paywall, or in this case, a firmware wall.

My guess would be they made a mistake in manual ver. 1.1 and corrected it in 1.2.
MIDI implementation 1.1 (from 2022 - same as manual ver. 1.1) says about 16 alternatives tunings.

In general manual for Trigon-6 is full of not correct data and it seems that info about 64 alternative tunings is copy-paste from other manual, for example from Take 5 or OB-X8 (it is word for word and just names of synths are replaced).

From example both manuals for Trigon-6 (1.1 and 1.2) have this information:

Code: [Select]

If your Trigon-6 is currently equipped with OS 1.2 (which is included with
Trigon-6 serial numbers #2415 and later) you cannot downgrade to an OS version
earlier than 1.2. If you try, your Trigon-6 will freeze. If this happens, you can enter
recovery mode by holding the write button while powering up as described above.
You can then update your synth to the latest OS via MIDI DIN (not USB).
so they talk about not existing software version and serial number #2415 probably not yet reached by Trigon-6 (mine T6 bought week ago has 7 hundred something and the biggest numbers I've seen on reviews or pictures in internet were about ~400). Probably this part of manual is direct copy from Prophet-6 manual (page 86):

I think that Sequential should spent some time to correct manuals and some of that discussion is here on forum:
