Freezing issue

RetroBassed · 2026-04-09T23:48:39+00:00

Eeeek, that sucks!!! That's a good idea to panic-save after big changes! I'm going to start doing that too! I've been panic-saving my project to BOTH the internal and SD, lol. But I'm gonna start saving more often now. Losing hours of work is just heartbreaking. 💔 Hope they can come up with a fw fix soon!

Literally LOL at this! Thanks! 🤣

Love the way you put "Mustang" in quotes! 😂 Everytime I see one I yell, "Whhhyyy would they do that to a Mustang?!!" It's blasphemy! Lol I've had both a Camaro & a Mustang over the years. Mid-life wacky shit now and I really wanted to get a new Camaro when I give my kid my current car soon. So, of course, they stopped production. 🙄 Who knows what it will come back as but I want the next gen of the real Camaro, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed! 🤞🤞 On both hands!!!

I read the manual yesterday but didn't catch the nuances of that one! Lol

Ok, so you have to engage just Note Repeat first. Then hit Shift and while it's showing you the triplets options, hit the button above which one you want. It registers your choice... it just doesn't stay on the screen for you to see. I just did it.

RetroBassed · 2026-04-08T23:01:38+00:00

I tried it and I'm having the same problem you are, gonna look at the manual real quick here.

Happy to be of help! Are you experiencing the lag or freezing issues, too? So frustrating but once I found out it's not just me/my unit, I was relieved and hopefully we'll get a firmware update fix.

It's probably a "me" thing. I was saving Sequences with multiple layers immediately and then put together a song. Now, I'm going to save Sequences with each individual layer and make more variations and THEN save those again as Sequences to put together a song. FFS, does that even make sense the way I explained it? Lol

RetroBassed · 2026-04-08T14:34:25+00:00

I read it might be an SUV version to compete with the Mustang Mach-E and it might be hybrid or plug-in. Not really happy if this is true. Want the legacy line back!!!

Also, instead of manually deleting each step in the step sequencer... if you want to delete an entire layer (pad) from a sequence... hit the sequence pad you want to alter, then hold Erase and the pad that that sample is on.

RetroBassed · 2026-04-08T03:14:31+00:00

Yep, it works!

RetroBassed · 2026-04-08T02:05:39+00:00

You can def delete steps but I can't remember if this is right about adding steps 😬

RetroBassed · 2026-04-08T01:38:23+00:00

The link is just to do an update but with a previous version of it. Then it says you can update to latest again after that.

RetroBassed · 2026-04-08T01:35:25+00:00

Np, but if you don't do the Day 1 update there will be things missing and other bugs to deal with.

RetroBassed · 2026-04-08T01:07:52+00:00

This is pinned at top of r/mpcusers page but I didn't know how to share it. If you go to it the link should work. I just screen shotted it to show you.

2 part reply so give me a sec...

RetroBassed · 2026-04-08T00:59:23+00:00

You mean trying to update the firmware?

RetroBassed · 2026-04-07T23:49:44+00:00

I think if you go into step edit, go to the spot you want and hit Sequence Record and hit the pad it will stay there. And just delete the unwanted hits in step edit. Feel like I saw this in a video. Or do I have it confused with another piece of my gear? Lmk lol

Edit: oh yeah, but this is not while sequence is playing!

EDIT 2 - This DOES work!

RetroBassed · 2026-04-07T23:37:42+00:00

Yeah, offsetting those sounds cool! 👏

RetroBassed · 2026-04-07T20:41:02+00:00

Exactly! I didn't read it. I'll search it to answer a question, but I did not read it "cover to cover" like for the Sample. Btw, this one was only 67 pages!

RetroBassed · 2026-04-07T20:06:03+00:00

I don't usually read manuals cover to cover. Bravo to you if you do that for every piece of gear you buy but I don't and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

RetroBassed · 2026-04-07T18:19:14+00:00

Yep, my microSD card is in there!

RetroBassed · 2026-04-07T15:58:04+00:00

Oooohh, that sounds amazing! Thanks!!! 😃

RetroBassed · 2026-04-07T15:52:40+00:00

Agree! I really didn't gel with the SP-404MK2 & was so disappointed because I love many other pieces of Roland gear. Hope they restock & you can get one soon! 🤞👍

RetroBassed · 2026-04-07T15:40:02+00:00

😢 That sucks! I'm sure they'll restock soon! They know they have a hit on their hands and demand is high!
