Last night I try using 2 Q-Link sliders together for the very first time and it didn't work, I could get them both assigned and they work independently of each other but the won't work together. Surely this should work? Is there anything I could've overlooked?

FYI here's what I tried to do. I assigned Q1 to sample start and Q2 to tune (both on note on). I then put a load of 1/32 notes across the bar and moved Q1 about to get that grainy timestretch effect, I then also tried moving Q2 about to get it to pitch about at the same time but no such luck, it would either pitch about from the start of the sample or move about the sample at the normal pitch, no way could I get it to move about the sample at different pitches.

Are there any settings I should try first or should I post this as a bug report?

What are the parameters that you assigned each fader to?

As I stated in the first post, Q1 was assigned to Sample Start on Note On and Q2 was assigned to Tune on Note On.

as stated in the JJ os FAQ, two sliders assigned to note on on a same pad. only the slider 2 will work.

it seems to be due to akai mpc 1000/ 2500 specs....

Ahh ok, so I guess it could be done by using one note on and one real time? I'll try that when I get home this evening.

If this is something to do with the mpc specs does that mean it was also the case with the Akai OS?

someone should test it with the akai os. but from jj 's words it should work ( or not working ,depend of your point of vue) in the same way.

Qlink1 note on to pad 1 and Qlink2 note on to pad 1 ==> only qlink 2 will work.

Qlink1 real time to pad1 and Qlink2 note on to pad1 ==> everything is working.

we've been going on about this for ages, has no-one bothered to go back to akai os, to check it out.
