Arpeggiator ahead of time with external clock

Arpeggiator ahead of time with external clock
« on: April 27, 2025, 01:26:14 AM »
Hi there,

I'm a happy owner of the Take 5 since 2022 but I have strange issue with any external clock (Din Midi or USB).
When I launch the arpeggiator the first beat is on the clock, but then every note is ahead of time by 8-10ms.

Does anyone else encounter the same issue?

I reported it to the support who confirmed me this is an active bug, but I am a bit surprised that this is not widely reported here in this forum, as to me this an important issue which makes the arpeggiator broken for a live setup with other gears.

So I am wondering if this issue might only happen for some specific units, the only other reference I found is this forum post in early 2022 https://www.elektronauts.com/t/sequential-take-5-five-voice-poly/158988/756

Thanks for reading and thanks for your help.

I feel like I saw a post here when I first started with my Take 5 that reported the same with sequencer playback being slightly ahead of the clock but I can't find it now. Might've been in one of the firmware beta threads?
