Yep, when it played normally they’re there - but at that stage I was just wondering WTH was causing it to sound so weird and that seemed logical even though there’s no PB ‘value’ as such. I think whatever has gone wrong on the board was just ‘really screwing everything MIDI up’; I made a video of it but it’s a faff to share.
Have just been playing with layering and transposing synth engines - once figured out the UI is really quite good (short/bold/long press timing without nudging the encoder is still defeating me, but then my case isn’t screwed shut yet). I’m running it off a big QC USB-C charger I had lying around and will sort a USB-C splitter to use it hooked up to the main MIDI/USB setup; counted that I have 19 synths (including small ones, excluding the Zynthian - it’s cheating to count Pocket Operators, Monotron and NTS-1/Modal Craftkits in that total?) at the moment so no wonder wiring it all is proving to be a bigger task than expected; I’ll probably pop this one on the desk next to my Keylab and iMac for easy fiddling with complex snapshots.
The output on this is SO hot, too. No gain needed on the Korg desk at all.
You see why even after noticing the reversed wires, I was a bit unsure if actually that was how it was supposed to be? I also checked the small connector hadn’t got black/red reversed, as I think there’s a mention of one of the components having been done that way at some point.
