List of changes from Octatrack DPS-1 OS 1.01B to 1.02
Updates
Scale settings are now only reset when doing a pattern clear.
Unquantized live recordings can now be made, the Octatrack will try to fit the notes as well as possible.
This is enabled by setting ”Quantize live rec” to ’no’ in the Personalize settings.
Syncing changes to card when switching banks is now delayed until the sequencer is stopped. This
is due to some Compact Flash cards sometimes stalling the write operation until a streaming audio
dropout occurs. The Card status LED will be yellow indicating that a delayed write is waiting.
When transport send is enabled in the project, MIDI Song Position Pointer is sent by the Arranger.
When selecting scenes, the grid LEDs indicate which scenes contain any locks, and which are empty.
The track and page LEDs also flash green to show which tracks and pages contain scene locks.
One-finger bank- and pattern selection is possible by first pressing pattern or bank button and then
quickly pressing one of the trig buttons.
The ”beats” timestretch algorithm has been improved and should produce better results in extreme
tempo scenarios.
MIDI Bank and Program Change can now be sent and received. Before changing patterns a corresponding
Program Change message is sent. If the pattern is in bank A-H, the Bank Change message
#0 may be sent, if the pattern is in bank I-P, the message #1 is sent. Receiving a Program Change
queues the corresponding pattern to be played. Enabling and disabling send and receive is done in
the MIDI SYNC menu.
