NS3: Arpeggiator: "keyboard Sync" when "MST CLK" used

Post by mattcol99 »

Hi,

Ive notices an odd difference in behaviour:

When the synth arpeggiator's BPM is used (and KBD HOLD is active ) : "KBD SYNC" is only sensitive to the notes in the zone of the sync
When the MST CLK is used (and KBD HOLD is active ) : "KBD SYNC" is sensitive to notes in ANY zone

This is annoying since I have different sounds in different zones, and the Synths arpegiator's BPM can only be set in multiples of 4 BPM

I need to match the drummer's click!

i know this is pretty "niche". Anyone else seen this and any work around?

I tried to recreate this but couldn't get the unrelated range to reset the synth with master clock, KB Sync, and KB Hold. Can you provide the program you are working with? Do you have the latest OS installed? Cheers!
