Help! OB-6 with Linnstrument issues

Help! OB-6 with Linnstrument issues
« on: June 21, 2026, 01:02:21 AM »
Does anyone else have this setup?

I'm using a LinnStrument with MPE enabled (Channel Per Note, Per-Note Y enabled, MIDI channels 1–7). Everything works as expected in normal operation. However, when I enable Unison mode, MPE starts behaving strangely. Only one voice responds correctly to pitch bend. I can bend the first voice, but then I have to cycle through the other five voices before pitch bend works again.

Is this a known issue or expected behavior with Unison mode and MPE? Could I be missing a setting somewhere?

I bought this unit used, so I'm also trying to determine whether this is a configuration problem, a firmware issue, or potentially a hardware fault before my return window expires.

Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks!

Never tried the Linn with unison on any synth, but  works fine un poly mode w. OB6.  I'm guessing it's not an OB6 instrument fault, perhaps just limitation.   Sometimes the linn is a little tricky to set up on certain instruments.
