Quatschmacher Posted January 8, 2020 Author Posted January 8, 2020 (edited) Also of note is that there is now an undo/redo feature within the editor using the standard commands of CTRL+Z and CTRL+Y. You can now also use the UP and DOWN cursor keys to skip banks in the editor. The new skin is nice too: Edited January 8, 2020 by Quatschmacher Quote
reesource Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 Lots of improvements, and that new skin is a VAST improvement! Excellent stuff. 1 Quote
Quatschmacher Posted January 16, 2020 Author Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) For Mac users who might have been experiencing problems after updating to Catalina where the FI firmware update or patch writing doesn't work, please remember to update the driver for your interface too! This particular issue came up for @SICbass with his Roland UM-One MKII and there is an updated driver which fixes the issue: https://www.roland.com/global/support/by_product/um-one_mk2/updates_drivers/e1812bfc-104a-4a18-a1db-b07980c0732c/ Edited January 16, 2020 by Quatschmacher Quote

No, but over at the "Catalina Ranch" things aren't too rosey now either. I can load a patch onto the editor and edit, save etc. but it then freezes on that patch, not allowing me to load another. It allows you to start the load process but when you've found a patch and press open, nothing happens. It just stays on the previous patch. Even a restart didn't help. Then at some random and indeterminate time you can load another patch which then becomes the new "frozen" patch... and so on... Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Anybody else suffering a low-level high pitched whistle from their FI? Is it likely to suffer impedance issues when connected to a FX loop blender with other FX on other loops? It's only the FI producing a whistle - not the BassWhammy, FwonkBeta or 3Leaf Envelope Filter... Quote

If you’re able to replicate it consistently, would you mind documenting the steps and sending it to Panda as it’ll help to get a fix made. My problem is quite random at the moment and the MIDI from my interface seems to have gone absolutely berserk and creates totally random settings when I change patches (routing via the MC8 over USB seems mostly ok). Don’t know what other craziness and system slowing the Windows update has introduced. Might have to roll it back. Quote

No, I’m not experiencing that, but your other pedals could also be masking the source of the noise as filter pedals will shave off the high frequencies. Quote

PANIC OVER! It seems the problem lies elsewhere than Windows. I’m investigating. Thought it was the Source Audio Hub at first but seems like it might be the MC8 in combination with the Focusrite. I’ll report back again once I’ve figured it out. EDIT - does seem to be something when sending MIDI to the MC8 from the Focusrite over the DIN port (though not over USB). I wonder if it has anything to with potentially the editor sending commands to the MC8 which are triggering its internal CC responses which is then causing the MC8 to spit out the accompanying CCs which are then getting sent along with the CCs from the editor which set the parameters for a patch. If so, it could be screwing up the FI. Though why that wouldn’t also happen over USB is a mystery. The other bizarre thing that is happening is that occasionally fast expression messages from the MC8 are locking up my Hub. This was the initial reason I thought it might be the Hub but I guess this could be another, separate MC8 issue. Edited February 5, 2020 by Quatschmacher Quote
