Nope. Nor Trig Counts. Obviously Trig Counts should be taken into account.

Yeah, it makes sense if I think again. Trig conditions are affecting the sequencer not the sound itself.

Double stop sends PCs since previous OSs.
Are you sure PCs are sent back every time?
No, I’m not sure of anything

It’s a possibility. On a project I made with 1.40 Beta 1 the PCs using SBNK were sent every pattern loop.

They couldn’t be nor shouldn’t be which might explain why they haven’t been - in any case, anyone previewing a trig wants to hear what it does implicitly - the act of manually trigging the trig is bypassing the condition which only checks whether to trig or not - i honestly don’t see how it could be any other way - the count is processed at the turn of a pattern, so if the transport was off (in what would be the more frequent use case) there’s be no notes no matter how many times you pressed them, same with fill - it doesn’t make any sense to not manually trig any TRC condition (nor factor in chance) when somebody needs to audition a step - seems like a no-brainer to just provide the Trig through the supported shortcut - that’s not to say that a preference one way or other isn’t fine, it just doesn’t seem logical (pun intended)

Will try tomorrow when the fog has cleared…

The fact that TRC are not taken in account is logical indeed, but I think it’s not the case for TRIG COUNTS as they are heard anyway when the sequencer is running (except with some TRCs! 
).

This is so so great. It’s so refreshing to see a company update a piece of hardware of this vintage. New hardware release cycles have become so frequent these days it’s hard not to be cynical about the motives for them.
Over the last few years with the, what seemed at the time premature to me, release of the MK2 Rytms and Analog 4s and followed by the Model series, I was afraid that Elektron was becoming one of the those ‘churn-out-the-new-products-to-the-hungry-masses’ companies.
It really is so gratifying to see them give so much to one of their oldest pieces - it casts them in a very good light. A ‘proper’ musical instrument company.
I for one am very grateful…!

So I did this with the .bin file and like the readme suggested, then rebooted my Octatrack
I hope my Octatrack isn’t bricked because now it just says BATTERY LOW and won’t do anything
I of course backed up my entire compact flash to my computer hard drive just to be safe.
Here I was just posting about the battery low thing. I’m afraid to turn my OT off right now. Will turning it off and on again help at all? Is there any way to maybe go back to the old OS? I hope it wasn’t a mistake upgrading my OS when the battery happened to be low…
Nvm I just restarted it! I was a little scared my Octatrack was bricked…It still told me my battery was low and then it just asked me to mount a set and now I’m good. YAY 1.40!

I had the battery changed on my ot mk1 twice. First time i send it off to Sweden and 2nd time I just did it myself. The battery cost about 2 € and can be easily installed even for a non technical person. Before I changed it the last time I had the low battery prompt showing up regularly for some time, very scary to see that just before starting a live set.

thanks!
I don´t now about that
do not install the new OS yet
I had a weird bug when using the Follow TM mode. Or maybe I overwrote the mapping? After changing the midi mode I could still start the sequencer with the keyboard. I changed the Midi Auto channel to something other than my keyboard, then back. Then the keys stopped starting the sequencer.
I need to experiment more about the differences between TM and Map modes. I don’t quite understand the difference.
FOLLOW TM follows active Trig mode, set for all tracks (Track mode, Chromatic, etc)
MAP / TRACK follows the track setting made with MIDI + vertical arrows

I have a question for those who updated: is it possible to also copy multiple trigs for scenes? Ie. Copy multiple scenes from one part to another…
AFAIK you can select only 1 scene…
You can copy parts, with their 16 scenes.
The most interesting for me would be to copy scenes settings between parts tracks…

YES! That’s what I was hoping to do…
