Ste: What software version is it? I've heard V1.03 should stop a lot of the problems...i've called Yamaha and they've offered a free upgrade plus they'll run a test to check if its operating correctly, i also want it serviced which they've offered to do although they charge £40 per hour! The number to call if your interested is 01908 369213...
Off topic can anyone help with sequencing an external arp? I record (overdub or replace) a 4 bar pattern, which whilst in record is fine, i press stop and playback and you just have the beginning of the note and it then stops, obviously i can use the internal arp but it is a little limited!

: Hi,
:
: I too am having the same problems. I too feel like pulling my
: hair out. I bought all this gear and wanted to use the RM1x to
: sequence tracks from my external gear. I've midi daisy-chained
: all my external synths together and it seems every day I have
: new problems. Programs change, banks reset, modulation wheels
: stop functioning, notes drop from chords (even though maximum
: polyphony hasn't been reached). Turning the RM1x off and
: therefore breaking the midi chain...and the problems stop. My
: creativity has taken a nose-dive because I've had to sort out
: all the technical problems by going online or reading the
: manuals.
:
: Would using a patch bay sort out any of the problems? I used to
: use Cubase and had a USB patch bay which was a breeze to use,
: and I NEVER had a problem. Can I get one for just hardware
: (there's no computer in my setup). If it would help me in this
: situation, where could I get one? Any help would be appreciated.

: Hi MDee, cheers for your help, I have tried this i must admit
: (plus a few other things) and now it 'seems' to have stopped
: sending reset messages when i press record, but still does it
: when i exit the utility menu?
:
: I checked the software version and its 1.02 so i reckon it may
: be related to that, but tbh i can cope as long as i remember to
: save any sounds i like.
:
: The Yamaha does seem to 'change' each time i use it though
: (different quirks etc) are they quite robust or are they know to
: have problems in later life? (it looks to have been quite well
: looked after btw).

: At first the RM1x can appear to do strange preset changes to
: external midi equip. The solution is to get rid of the
: "phrase" term in the bank section of voice mode &
: this should stop it.

: Hi, i'm new to the rm1x scene having just picked up a 2nd hand
: one.
: My primary use was to sequence my Roland SH32 which is working
: well. I.e i can play sounds through the yamaha, record etc!
: However, when i exit the utility menu or press record or back,
: the sequencer sends a signal to the sh32 and the display of the
: sh32 changes from for example A11 to --- and no noise is heard
: until i manually change pattern on my sh32 where all my preset
: sounds are lost unless i've written them beforehand!
:
: I've tried to stop the yamaha sending any midi messages via the
: utility & set up menus but the problem persists! I've also
: played with the local settings on the sh32 eg turn off or mid1
: or mid2 but again the problem persists! Has anyone any idea
: whats happening here?
:
: Does the yamaha clash with the Roland? Please, please advise of
: any tips cause i'm pulling my hair out here!!!
