Hanging notes?

Elektron Gear Digitone/Digitone Keys
#126

I have a new Digitone, an Akai MIDI keyboard and I’m using Overbridge standalone. If I play and stop a pattern then play a note of the Akai keyboard the note hangs. If I the power cycle the Digitone the problem goes away. This is repeatable and consistent.

I opened a support case to see if there’s any plans on fixing this since it makes the Digitone nearly unusable as a synth.

I’ll post their reply here.

April 28 - Elektron User Care responded right away: ‘Thanks for reporting, we appreciate it. The development team is currently working on this issue.’

Based on the age of this thread I’m not holding my breath for a fix. At least they were nice.

Can’t believe they didn’t fix it until now. Got the problem with hanging notes since the beginning and it’s detailed reported over two years now.

Same problem! OMG, still no update?

#129

Edit: Though I’d found something that worked for me, but I’m still getting hanging notes with OB. Shall stick with MIDI here for now.

Lol at all the doom and gloom in this thread. Don’t worry people, if it’s a legit bug that they know about and have acknowledged and say that they are working on a fix for, why would you doubt them?

I was sending it midi through overbridge the other day
and it was going mental on and off notes sticking everywhere…
was pretty bad probably because short notes

Definitely sounds like it’s missing the note off or velocity 0 message in your case.

Crap! This made me think of a Max device I could make to send note off messages when the transport stops :joy:.

slaps self in face

I have to finish my studio and make some damn music! It’s been months of building furniture and making max devices haha.

There is a whole long thread about this issue on here
so I believe they will fix it eventually … if it is possible that is…
building furniture and stuff can be fun aswell I guess!

i found that it only hangs notes if i use the trigs on the digitone as keys. itll be fine but as soon as i press a trig notes start randomly hanging

Why does not Elektron fix this? It seems like they don’t give a **** about certain things.

Still not fixed

Can you post a video of the specific case that you use to replicate the issue? we tested this pretty hard.

#140

Haven’t had a chance to test it, did it solve the issue?

#141

I just upgraded and I have not done a stress test yet, but the stuck note issue was really obvious before. It showed up directly, but now the issue seems to be gone. If this is the case this open up so much potential. Then I can finally use overbridge. My vacation just got the best start it seems. :slight_smile:

This issue was seriously annoying, in my case, sequencing the Digitone from an Akai Force.

All is okay now, the Digitone correctly understand the MIDI CC123 “All notes off”, and it’s pure heaven, no more stucked notes.

It took so much time, but it’s finally okay.

Thank you !
