Sample Chain Decay Issue

Elektron Gear Octatrack
#1

Hello All,

Having an issue with sample chains playing one sound and then all of a sudden switching to a different sound in the chain when there isn’t a trig. I am also loosing decay on my sounds. Here is what I did.

I made sample chain. 64 kicks. I used a static machine. I chopped the loop into 64 slices. I have loop set to auto, Slice on, Len off,Rate TSTR and TSTR set to auto. I have the Octo set to slots. I try out the different sounds with the STRT button. I also tried this in Tracks mode.

Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thank you!

If you sliced the samples up and you want to play the slices, you should be in slice mode (function down and up).
Also, you probably want to read Merlin’s guide to the octatrack.

Hi thanks for the reply.

I definitely did that. Maybe 64 slices is too many.

I will read the guide!

Thank you
