hey! i think this is my first post in this forum. i love it and read a lot of threads. but this time i couldn't find this topic in any other thread:

i recorded a sequence, about 10 tracks, 40 bars. they were playing fine, no problems. but suddenly, without doing anything, the seqence stops the playback at bar 8, it just sounds as i deleted all notes. but they are all there, i checked them in step edit. switching my 1000 on/off didn't change anything... when i start playing later, bar 10, 15 or 30 it stays quiet. only when i start at track 38 (?!) i can hear my seq again. wtf?

by the way, some other problem that really bug me:

* in step edit, shift + step doesn't work. it jumps to the next note (foreward) or doesnt move at all (backward). if i dont push shift it jumps whole bars.

* in seq edit, copying midi-tracks only works every 2nd or 3rd time. otherwise the copied track is created but blank.

i love my 1000, but what is this? can anybody help me please?

hope you understand me.
cmd rbt.

gotta bring this up again.

at the moment, i'm woking on a midi-only seq, i don't use any samples, just 6 midi tracks over 90 bars. i assing them to different sounds of my synthies.
now i'm experiencing the same problem again:
all sounds suddenly cut off after bar 78, without any reason. the seq keeps playing until the end and if i loop it starts with sound again from the first bar. if i check step edit during playback it got stuck at bar 78, i can see the following notes (ie c1 80.3.48 etc), even if the bar-couter shows i'm already at bar 87. when i stop and play from bar 80 i can hear the rest of the seq without any problem.
can't be something with polyphonie or too many notes used, its a simple seqence.

what can this be? i experienced this (as in my first post) with os v2.1, now i work with v3 b16.

i'm sure nobody can help me with this, but at least i'll try. sucks!
