Bug Fixes: MPC2500 OS-XL Ver2.03 20-JAN-2010
-----------------------------------------------------------
1. When a multi timbre is ON, "Wait for key" does not work by MIDI IN NOTE.

Similarly arpeggiator does not work.
Notes
Arpeggiator works only at an active track.
Moreover, a chord does not work to MIDI IN NOTE.

2. [MAIN]

F1(LOOP)
The number of Bars of a loop differs from the number of Bars of a sequence.

3. AFTER may be set to ON by an audio track.

Notes: Q-link does not work by an audio track.

4. The level of the audio track and Input Thru is decreasing.

5. A program cannot be chosen in the mode of Q-Link.

Now, what is this supposed to mean? Got worried, opened a project I last worked on XL 1.48 with Q-links assigned to audio tracks - they still work just fine.

What?

it's a bug fix, (bug fix : fixed bugs list) so "does not work" means "now DOES work"

it may have been a bug between 2.00 and 2.03, but not a bug before 2.00 I guess...

cheers


btw, nice mpc-cat picture

bug of q-link is:

1) u create 3 programms
2) open mode+pad1
3) chose pgm
4) scroll data 10 times clockwise
5) then to get back to first your pgm you need to get ~10 times antclockwise not 3 times

Well, might be that. I'm wondering, why is it written in blue in the manual and bug list? Blue seems to mean "notes" in JJ-speak... Anyway, Q-links seem to be working, must do some more testing.


Thanks! She is very well trained at Destructive Editing on the MPC

she also seems to dislike the crappy 2500 data wheel, but she's right, it's a reanny annoying crappy data wheel

Concerning point 3, another translation could be : Although Q links shouldn't work with audiotracks, the after key turns on. I don't use the Q links but I guess the after key don't work anymore if you want to use a Q link with an audiotrack in that release.

there was a point 6 for the mpc1000 update.

6. When a loop is set to 1-1 by an audio track, it will crash, if it plays.

Now, there is a new explanation - and I think I get it this time


Notes
Q-link does not work by an audio track.
Q1 of an audio track and Q2 are not Q-link, and they only mean a slider.

Thanks for the heads up on the fix Jungleman.

By the way, how do you keep you're cat from biting the cords on you're gear!
