[A6] Is this a mix mode bug other's experience?

[elmacaco X]

Thanks guys, (I'm not sure if your replies made it to the list, or were 
meant to be private, if so I apologize ;)

I looked into that, did saved the mix before and after changing, had the 
sequence stopped while changing, checked the midi channels, etc.  I'll have 
to run the sequence again with that mix and see if it happens again.  it 
seemed like channels 5 & 6 were linked somehow.  If I find a user error or 
have it happen again then I'll report back.

I always start with a default mix template I created, and haven't had many 
problems with it until this, which doesn't seem too big.

I really love this board despite it's shortcomings.  It really offers so 
much, and sounds great.

Still need to grasp the whole triggering thing, and find a way to latch a 
bunch of sequences in differet patches in mix mode.  Why no latch mode on 
the sequencer when the arp has it?

It's interesting that there isn't more discussion on here, since there is so 
much to be discussed and learned through user experience.  Maybe it's been 
covered before, but it seems that the learning process can take many routes 
depending on the individual's approach to it.

Thank again guys.
