Memory Sequencer Malfunctions

[midiguru23]

I'm encountering two small but musically problematical issues with Memory Sequencer. I'm using the Twelve-Key module, as you do in your tutorial video, for input.

First, I patch the gate out of the Twelve-Key to the > and Push inputs, as in your video, and the CV out of the Twelve-Key to the In of Memory Sequencer. At this point, the note C4 fails to record. This seems to be because it has a value of 0 volts. The Memory Sequencer seems to see an input of 0 and reject it because it thinks nothing is happening.

Second, I get the same result when the transpose value plus the step value equals 0. Memory Sequencer repeats the previous pitch value, because it thinks nothing is happening. In this case, my 2nd step happens to be an F, which has a value of 0.4167. When I use a Twelve-Key to transpose down a perfect 4th (to the key of G), Twelve-Key is sending -0.4167. The result is that the F disappears. Memory Sequencer repeats the value stored in the previous step.

I really like this module, and want to use it. I hope you're able to fix this problem!

This is with 0.6.1 in Windows. I can upload the patch file it you'd like to look at it. There's nothing peculiar about it.

Sorry -- the problem seems to be in Quantum Multiverse, not in Memory Sequencer. I'll have to test that further (and report it in the correct location.

Hi Jim,

sorry for the late response. I hope you got further with your investigation. One thing, I noted from your first post, is that 'zero values' should obviously not have any effect, as they are the default anyway.

As for the Quantum Universe, I have the impression that your observations could be the result of the 'last' mode, which is quite unusual compared to other quantisers. Please, check whether you have the same problem in the strict Up/Down or Closest Up/Down modes.

Cheers, Martin
