Tracks getting "stuck" and looping options

**mcginlrd** · 07-09-2011, 07:18 PM

Hi Everyone,

I have been using the s4 for about 6 months now, and mostly have nothing but positive things to say about it. I have run into a few issues though and have a couple of questions I'm hoping someone can help answer.

-Sometimes a track won't play and I have to "push" the jog wheel to get it going. This is a pain and sometimes takes a few tries. I notice that when I press the "search" button, the track may start to play, but when I exit the search screen it stops. Is this some sort of glitch, or is this some setting I can turn off?

-I'd like to be able to toggle the "loop active" button on the s4... I can turn loops off by pressing in the loop wheel, but I can't turn them on without the loop wheel placing a loop whenever I press it. Is there a setting where I can change this?

Thanks in advance for the help making this awesome controller all the more awesome!

-Ryan

Maybe recalibrate the jogs?

The tracks getting stuck is a relatively new issue that I think came with TP2.0.3

I never experienced it prior, but have experienced it a few times since I upgraded.

It's random and it sucks!

I had it too only recently.

I got the software update and that fixed the problems, thanks for the help.

I found that pressing and holding the LOAD button released the track on occasion. Still happens in 2.03 - not good

yeah my tracks get stuck, I never know how it starts and how it ends, I just start flailing and it all works eventually.

I'm not sure I understood, but if what your calling the 'loop wheel' is the right encoder, then the loop active button is the left one. If you want to activate a loop in advance press this one and not the loop size + set one. ?
