Hello.

I'm very happy with the arranger mode, but sometimes, it starts to bring me to the beginning of the sequence whenever I press Overdub or select a different tracks in the touch screen. This is going to happen even when switching to Grid mode.

When that happens, it's terribly frustrating because I must scroll hundreds of beats to the right to get to my working section (loop selection).

I couldn't figure out why. I only know that when it starts this behaviour, it does it for a very long time. I don't understand if I'm doing something wrong.

Two point x has all sorts of bugs like this as well. When you're nudging a large selection of notes, for some stupid reason the view jumps to the middle of the selected range, so it's impossible to align something based on the first note. When you come out of many screens back into the grid view, the grid is place that some random vertical location so you have to find your notes again. It almost seems like they don't care where they put you after an edit operation occurs.

It's not random though, its like all your piano rolls share the same positioning information. select one and view it and scroll over a bit then go to a second one and have a look. if i recall, the positioning is not independant per-track. you'll be at whatever cursor position you were at in the last screen lol. they dont wanna use up ram with arrays i guess?
