I dunno This is really aggitating.. and i want to know if anyone else can produce this..

1. I'm in main mode.. with a sequence and turn loop off..

2 I go to song mode and add that sequence. And start playback in song mode.

3. I press main and find that the loop for that sequence has been turned on again..

I'd expect this to stay either off or on depending on what you set it too..

I posted in 1.6 bus but assumed no one is doing this? Can someone confirm this?

I do know that u can go from song mode to main mode while the song plays, but not the other way around, also in main mode its looped which is more then convenient when recording especially non-stop recording...but when u go from song mode to main mode, u go out of song mode, it looks like u just change views, cuz it keeps on playing, but its not that your still in song mode with another view window...sometimes (this is a bug I think) it does goes to the next sequence of your song in main mode...which can be annoying when automating a specific sequence while tweaking jumps to next sequence as in song mode, maybe this causes your confusion. (or its a bug that it doesn't jump to the next sequence when going from song- to main- mode)

See my problem isn't with making beats... Because the loop on is needed to stay on ... when your actually making beats..

It's different though when your using it live..(as in you have 6 to 10 beats{sequences} loaded in one project.. REady to ryme over..)

Your right in that you cant go from main mode to song mode but i dont need to do that.. I need to go from song mode to main mode.. Which you can do..

This is what i do live...

1. Start in song mode...(play start)

2. after the first 2 sequences in song mode near the end of the 2nd seq i jump to main mode without stopping as i seamlessy go into a live pad hitting finger drumming thing.

So of course you dont want a full beat(which is one whole sequence) to loop over..

Sometimes i change it to main mode becuase at the end of that sequence is a talking break(talk some shit to the crowd) .. It's fuking amatuer hour when the fuking thing loops the whole song(sequence) again.....(especially when you turn the loop off for each sequence)

Hardware mpcs dont do this.. Or at least my 1k and 2k and 5k dont...
