1. Weird thing...so I have two clips one a keygroup, the other a drum track where suddenly the events disappeared from grid and clip mode- no idea how it happened.

What seemed bizarre is that I could still hear every sound and note but looking in grid or clip mode, no events were visible.

So, i copied the clips and lone behold the new clips showed the events in clip and grid screens.

Went back to the original clips and although i can see and hear the events playing back now, the cue head does not move on either clip.

On the new copied clips, the cue head scrolls as it should- I have it set to follow on all clips.

2.

On a drum track in note mode, while investigating the above issue, I checked the other pad banks and there were copies of my samples on the bottom rows of pads up to banks C-F. Well, i thought they were copies until i deleted one from pad bank F and it in turn deleted the same file on bank B- like they're connected somehow?

I'm new to this machine but what's been happening doesn't seem normal.

Has anyone else reported similar or the same issues?



Thanks.

Figured it out, like I always do.
