The issue has been resolved now, the solution is in the EDIT2 section below.
Hey guys, I'm having lots of fun with the new Beads module and cannot get enough of it since it arrived yesterday. I'm having one little issue, though. As soon as I plug any kind of CV control into the Pitch patching point on the Beads the tuning goes out of whack by 25cents. It doesn't matter whether I use Matriarch's CV Out or a midi keyboard through Polyend's Poly2 and its CV Out, the issue is the same. As soon as I plug anything into the Pitch CV on the Beads the Pitch goes 25cents out of tune. Any ideas how to fix this? Can it be miscalibrated out of factory?
EDIT:
- I'm aware of the fact, that you can use Beads' Pitch knob to tune it, but even if I do manage to get it right, as soon as I pull the cable out of the Pitch CV it's 25cents out of tune the other way around...
- I've been using mostly its internal waveform granules to have fun until now and it works great and stays in tune as long as I don't plug anything into the Pitch CV In.
- When the pitch knob is dead centre and there’s nothing patched into the Pitch CV in, Beads is dead-on in tune. As soon as I plug any cv-tracking voltage from any source into Pitch CV in it goes out of tune by around 25 cents.
- Checked other modules by MI that I own (Plaits) and there are no similar issues, it’s dead-on in tune whether v/Oct is plugged or not - there’s just no difference in tuning.
EDIT2:
Emilie replied to my question on Mutable Instruments forum and there is a simple solution that fixed my problem - I just had to run the module through calibration, for which the procedure is:
- Press both buttons (assign and quality mode)
- 1V on the PITCH CV input
- Press quality button
- 3V on the PITCH CV input
- Press quality button again
- 1V on the DENSITY CV input
- Press quality button
- 3V on the DENSITY CV input
- Press quality button again
