Crazy Volume increase on the first hit when I switch through kit banks

I have different patterns and kits and when I am playing live and switching through them (bank A1 to A2, etc), sometimes the first hit will have a huge volume increase and then go back to normal.

I am playing in Direct Start mode, but I have switched to Sequencial and it still happens.

It sounds terrible and I dont know how to avoid it.

Please help

Do your compressor settings change from kit to kit?

Yes they do

My first guess at volume changing as you change pattern is that the compressor settings for the Kit in the second Pattern shift the levels a lot. As the Kit changes, so the Rytm needs to do “something” with the signal passing through the compressor. I don’t know what it does, but it’s very easy to imagine there’s a period of time where the signal suddenly becomes uncompressed, and then compressed again.

A way to test/fix this would be to have matching compressor settings on the two Kits. I appreciate this is awkward.
