Stuck Notes on Stage 3 Compact

Postby Adri-L » 31 May 2019, 04:09

Yesterday i used the Stage 3 for the first time during rehearsel with my band.

It happend 3 times that I got some stuck notes while using a Brass Sound.

This is really annoying and this was only rehearsel. It will totally suck if this is gonna happen during a gig.

The Stage 3 is updated with the latest firmware / software.

I guess there is still a bug in the software.

Greetings,
Adri

I think that it is unlikely that this is a software thing, much more likely that it has to do with the key contacts. Are those sticking notes adjacent to one another or scattered about? Any possibility of drink spill or similar? is it the same ones sticking each time, or does the failure move around from note to note?

heavy exposure to salt air? an instrument which has been chilled down in an air-conditioned environment and then suddenly exposed to humid and hot outdoor air can suffer condensation...

Pablo,

the instrument is brand new, only bought it a few weeks ago!

There are no contact that are sticky, if i switch to another preset, the stuck notes are reset

And this board is full of postings of others that has the same problem.

Hi, I have not noticed this with my Stage 3 Compact and not seen any posts about it from other users, is it really a widespread problem? Does it appear with a specific brass sample only, and which one is it?

Hi Schorsch,

i used the search engine of this forum and there are several posts with stucked notes.

It was hard to notice which sample it really was. It was in the middle of the song when it happend so i quickly reset and continue playing. Then it happend 2 times later on that session but i dont know if it was with the same sample / sound preset.

greetings
Adri
