My o_C module can't hold a steady pitch. Also, sometimes, it won't save, or it boots into calibration mode instead of the last saved app. Sometimes it totally forgets all my saved sequences. Then after about five reboots it will remember them. Anyone else having these issues?

Oops, this sounds odd... What comes to my mind first is a dropped 5V power supply line...

Hmm, also I've noticed that the right knob is now backward. Twisting the knob does exactly the opposite of what it's supposed to do. So, do I need to buy an additional power supply?

You can change this behaviour in calibrationalthough if it's not retaining that setting between power cycles then maybe something else is up... |

Okay, I have the encoder turning in the correct direction, but the module no longer quantizes any incoming CVs on CV1. (Yes I made sure that nothing was connected to the module while in the calibration menu.
Something isn't right with this module. Also the pitch is still out of whack: It still won't hold a steady pitch. It sounds like it's changing key randomly. That's in addition no longer recieving CV on CV1. I may have to send this one back to Germany.

Might be worth reloading software or even another version in case it has somehow become corrupted.

Which applets are you using? Stock or Hemispheres? I'd like to do a proper calibration on mine but that requires a multimeter, which i don't currently have. I think there might be an input CV offset which is throwing some settings out of whack (cf. the other o_C thread). Eg in CopierMaschine the CV4 input can be assigned to various setting such as changing the root note or shifting the octave. If you switch it to the octave setting it immediately sends the pitch out way up even with nothing connected to that input. Could be something like that which is throwing the pitch out. robertlanger you mentioned something about adding a resistor in the other thread, maybe you can share more about your findings  |

I'm running stock firmware, Sequins applet.

I have a multimeter I bought with my Arduino kit. I might have to go through a thorough calibration first.

Sorry for Multiple posts, but I'm having lots of problem in Sequins. It's both encoders. When in the SEQ menu, the left encoder is supposed to mute or select a step, but it doesn't. You can see it trying, but the little box does not mute the track at all. Also the left encoder is supposed to change the "semitone." It only changes at the cent level or "quartertone."
You're supposed to press the left encoder while turning the to adjust the cents. It adjusts the cents when not depressing anything. Sometimes it flips back to changing the semitone, but most often it sticks in cent-adjustment mode.
This is in addition to it not quantizing on CV1. Sometimes it might quantize a couple notes, but then it switches back to non-quantized pitches.

I don't think Sequins quantizes incoming CV, does it? It's more of a traditional style sequencer. I think in that applet all the CV inputs are available to map to various functions. Maybe I'm wrong. There's a lot to take in

I'm seeing all your posts about these issues, but unfortunately I can't help since I haven't got the O_c yet  I hope you'll get it resolved one way or another! |

Ah, yes. Sequins is the sequencer, Quantermain is the quantizer. Okay, I'm still having problems with the encoder not functioning properly. It doesn't mute or turn the proper adjustments, even when using other applets.
Sometimes it will kick back into sequencing properly, then it will quit.

I think I've found the solution. I had moved the module to the bottom row of my rack. That's when the problems started. I moved it up a couple rows, and it seems to be functioning perfectly now. Not sure what that means.
My guess is it wasn't getting clean power on that particular power plug.

Those digital modules tend to be more demanding when it comes to ideal working conditions.

Interesting finding! Mine is just a few slots down from POWER which might be why i don't seem to have the same issues (as far as i can tell, its still so confusing  ) |

Starting to wonder if I need to buy another power supply because I'd like to have two o_C modules.
Is it okay to run two power supplies on the same "bus"? I'm running a Monstacase. Since I plan to add more digital modules, especially when Cirrus is relaunched, it might be time to think about more power.
