Does "Percussion 2nd soft not audible" qualify as a bug?

How about "C3 setting is in fact C2, actual C3 missing"?

Enter in list? report?

Problems, problems, problems with new NS3...

Newest: I took NS3 to a gig with Virus and connected them with trad. MIDI cables. NS3 MIDI out -> Virus In, Virus Midi Out -> NS3 In. Most of the time this setup worked, but I got at least 4-5 total MIDI crashes, some kind of overflow. I had to boot both units to survive. Quite horrible in the middle of the song, when sounds get stuck and only thing which helps is power them off and on again. Also I had a moments when NS3 stopped sending midi.

I have used this setup with my earlier NS2 + Virus and no problems in general (well, sometimes Virus can have a crash but not often). Also to note that I haven't have problems with NS3+Virus+other gear when I have used NS3 with USB-midi and iConnectivityMio4 (MIDI router and interface). So I believe these new problems were somehow related with trad. MIDI...

I did not see this in Bug Sheet, so is this happening just with my unit, or is it something which is reported by other users as well?
oh yes, i have the same Problem. 1-2x on a gig with my Roland U220. Message in U220: Midi Buffer full. Both Instruments crashed. Turn them off and on again work.

Which of coarse indicates a bug on the U220 as well, since it shouldn't crash on a buffer full.

I use two midi drawbars from Ocean Beach on my C2(D update) and I use a lot the swell pedal. If I use them just without a battery, just midi powered, I have quite often some midi crashes....If you use a battery, of course, you might sometimes leave the power on when you tear down and then, next time your battery is dead...So, I customize them with a daisy chain for guitar pedal power and it works perfectly....BUT, make sure the power switch on Ocean Beach DB1 is always switch on: I have forgotten to do so at a gig and in the middle of my solo on Evil Ways, boom, notes playing continually that need a reboot again and again....So, this might just be the issue with you as well....
