Title: Sequence Extending using SHIFT and ARROW keys
Post by: zonkout on July 09, 2015, 12:42:32 am
I have been having fun with the BSP, but cannot get the Sequence Extension feature to work.
For example, I have a 16-step drum pattern running and I press SHIFT and >> at the same time. It should double the sequence length and copy the 1-16 pattern to 17-32, correct?
Am I doing something wrong?

I downloaded the MCC and cannot get it to open on windows 7. Perhaps my problem will be solved in the OS update?

Hi zonkout,
You have this problem because you're not running the latest firmware of the BSP.

Have a look here :
http://forum.arturia.com/index.php?topic=84871.0

You encountered a problem running the MidiControlCenter ?
What is your exact version of windows ?
A possible solution would be to install a previous version of the MCC then install the latest 1.2.

1.0 = http://downloads.arturia.com/extra/mcc/MIDI_Control_Center_1_0_0.exe
1.2 = http://downloads.arturia.com/extra/mcc/MIDI_Control_Center_1_2_0_301.exe

I am using Windows 7 Professional and cannot get the MCC to work (and thus cannot update the firmware on my BSP).

I tried on a different computer (also running WIN7 Pro) and got it to work. Very buggy though. Lots of error messages.
The new OS fixed my the Sequence Extension issue I was having.
THANKS!

are you able to reduce the sequence length? i can extend the sequence with shift + >>, but it will not let me reduce the sequence with shift + <<.

using firmware 1.1.0.3

I agree, i can only extend the sequence with shift + >>, but it will not let me reduce the sequence with shift + <<.

Same here. Extend only. No reduce. Irritating.

Hi , you can reduce the seq length by changing the last step to where you want it.

I understand you can use last step to reduce the sequence length, but the manual specifically states that shift + << should also work.

Hi ,To reduce the step account .say I'm on 64 steps  press lst step you should see a flashing white light . while holding lst step press the arrow key << and the whit light moves back down when you want to stop still holding down the lst step button press the step which should turn green on your 16 seps
