urgent help after 1.62 update

Post by D575 »

Iv just encountered a problem after this up date (1.62) & not had this before on previous updates, when I now change from one performance setting to another performance setting the transpose difference from one to the other will no longer change on the gear (Roland integra7 & yam mox6) I have running through midi in the pa3x, iv checked the global: general control "lock"  and nothing seam to have changed, midi fillter are the same as I all way have set up so I'm lost , the only thing to note that was diffrent was how we hat to retrieve the new sounds this time with a factory restore then load all my setting back after this Which I lernt how to do in a prev thread on this froum could this of changed my midi setting some how ?? Major problem for me here ....help!

P.s one other thing to note here is when I first turn on and try the above with out any midi out fillters turned on ( prg. change & volume) then the transpose will change the external keyboards through midi as I would normally be used to, but you have to put the midi fillters on(prg.change & volume) other wise all the parameters on the external keyboards will change according to the pa3x midi command hens the need to fillter some but not all (transpose) commands out , then when you engage the fillters I'm quoting the transpose will not work on the external keyboards again which it did before this 1.62 update and after finding this out turning the fillters off will not reverse the process which is very strange ! I have to turn the pa3x power off to deactivate the fillters ?? Most strange in dead .... How do I get 1.60 update on line I had no problems after that up date ....big headache coming on here can any one still help me here ...........

P.P.S. can confirm that it's looking like a major bug with is 1.62 , I'm now back with is 1.60 and all is well again + the new sounds have stayed also , who ever this may concern os 1.62 has a serious problem as described above be warned if you are running other keyboards with midi !! , hummmm had me worried for a minute!! At the moment I'll only up date now for new sounds etc and converter back to os 1.60 as the problem iv had tonight would of stoped my performances dead in there tracks , I wonder what's went wrong with the latest up date ? Your comments and thought still most welcome even though iv sorted things out for now ........

Check your "Scale and Transpose position" in global mode

Ok iv had a check with "Scale and Transpose position" in global mode and it mirrors my settings in os 1.60 , it's defiantly something to do with the "prg.change" in midi out fillter as soon as I engage that then the "transpose" is also filltered out in os 1.62 which has never before happened and converting back to os 1.60 rectified the problem and in os 1.62 when you deactivate "prg.change" in midi out filler the external keyboards still won't transpose in time with the pa3x ? You have to switch the pa3x off to reset this! To me something has changed here in the software and not for the better so changing key say in the middle of a song won't work with the other keyboards as it has all ways done , weather it's by my setting it in "performance settings" or if I try to manually change with the transpose buttons ??

I have tested and there doesn't appear to be a problem, please try the following.

Save your working global data in a .SET file then update to V1.62.
After upgrading make sure you perform the full system Factory Restore, this is a requirement!
Next load the .SET file you saved before, then restart the Pa3X
