Is anybody else's Jupiter Xm really buggy?
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I noticed that even after a few firmware updates my Jupiter Xm is still really hard to work with because of the bugs. A few examples:</p> <ul> <li>Sometimes scenes/model banks/parts will carry over previous FX settings when they shouldn't</li> <li>Sending MIDI data over USB will play on the first attempt, then disable the Xm's audio entirely on attempts made after that - largely requiring a reboot</li> <li>Editing certain model banks - e.g. SH-101 - by lowering the PW level whilst raising the Saw level will, under certain circumstances, render the PW level permanently on despite your attempts to lower it</li> </ul> <p>Don't get me wrong I'm loving the way the Jupiter Xm sounds and it's mostly ok, but I'm trying to make music and just drowning in a sea of glitches. Like imagine buying a synth with USB MIDI capabilities, setting up your DAW in Logic, pressing play and hearing your synths sounds on the first playback <em>but on none of the playbacks after that</em>. It's enough to make someone want to pull their hair out. I've even had patches that I saved come up "unknown data"... It's infuriating :/</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/sumgai632"> /u/sumgai632 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/f4yyfp/is_anybody_elses_jupiter_xm_really_buggy/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/f4yyfp/is_anybody_elses_jupiter_xm_really_buggy/">[comments]</a></span>
