hi dlyline no there were about 13 bids on it reaching about $130 but then someone local I'd been in contact with via kijiji before listing on ebay hotmailed me and said he'd come round, try it out, see any problems and then give me $275 Canadian (19…

Is this just me? I'm on a Pioneer's run LXR and it always seems to update correctly, e.g. just now to V 0.24a - but my booting-up splashscreen always says V0.21 - even after I have just completed an update...

hi Julian, thanks for response... they are killing me at my new job so haven't had the toys(/weapons!) on for a while... think it was fixed by something I did so likely not a problem in the long term...Will let you know but otherwise no news is good…

I seem to have an intermittent issue where Voice 1 only comes out of the stereo input on the left - anyone else?
-
yes... I couldn't swear this is a consistent thing - but I saved settings at 0 bpm so I could get straight to external control every time - but ended up finding that turning LXR on with a native bpm (e.g. 120), pressing play and only then going to 0…

hi allanyone got the LXR transmitting MIDI "thru" out of the non-in MIDI port yet?do you have to select anything in any menus? I'm more interested in triggering stuff downstream from LXR with my Octatrack (since don't have a patchbay) than using LXR…

@julian thanks very much for the tip. Not sure what the xtal is, caps look fine. In any case big thanks to @dlyline for suggesting a power problem. Looks like I had accidentally switched to a 5v power supply (table full of diy!!!) instead of the …

hi there I'm on version 0.23, I think - I have updated it a couple of times to be sure from the 0.23 FIRMWARE.BIN file at the top of the thread here ... but I am getting one really frustrating bug/crashing problem. I am quite prepared to believe it …
-
for me - maybe it was a MIDI loop - only happened when my LXR was downstream from Anushri. I am pretty clueless when it comes to MIDI & would be guessing what a MIDI loop is, obviously could google it but anyway I'm guessing it wasn't the LXR's…

Hi all - I know Julian's on holiday so posting where some people have had the same issues I've been having, or similar. I get slightly more than double speed play on LXR when sync'd to Octatrack via external MIDI via 5-pin cable. Transport ie star…

so sorry got nobbled with extra shifts at work, no chance yet...

ok will try & have a look later

Hi Julian - am away from the LXR at moment but had fun with it in last few days. Loking for bugs & haven't really found any. But one thing I found was that LFOs didn't actually seem routable to any parameter - lots, but not all. Obviously all…

After having loads of fun and trying & failing to pick faults in this groovy little machine, one thing did occur to me... with a couple of my favourite instruments, if you switch the machine off, or knock the power cord out, then when you turn b…

ha ha! you didn't go to bed did you!! nice jam, thanks for posting
-
ok well you can scratch my "issue"....after making damn sure that all the solder joints I could see on the board were as close to perfect shiny little nipples as I could get them, while hunting for the cause of my MIDI in issue & peering under t…

Thanks for all the help so far and good luck with the kits. genießen Sie die Sonne! x jk
-
ok really basic question here. I would like to help you Julian by doing a genuine LXR bug report - but quite likely the bug is me...I'm trying to get synchronised with an external MIDI clock coming from my octatrack. I have set the tempo to zero …
-
with respect to my comment about FM - with a bit of reading & playing I have realised the LXR is LOADED with FM capability, loving the metal noises
-
+1 more for keeping it simple - a couple of trigger outs Julian already mentioned would be simple to add. Something for the future he has plenty on his plate at the moment! And the internal voices are very cool & flexible. If it gets done, on…

laser cut cardboard spacers? ha ha better laser the manual pages too ..
-
more than one FM voice capability please!!!!!I would probably run this with an external kick drum, the LXR kick as counterpoint, the cymbals which are very nice & crispy especially with sample rate reduction....and three or four FM voices, the o…
-
i presume there's not enough coding space to have what the octatrack does - basically use a button combination (e.g. voice & shift) to switch to MIDI tracks - and then have the same number again of MIDI tracks, with the same buttons used to acc…

Grooving with the factory soundset!!!Awesome machine!!!!Good work Julian this is a LOT of fun \:D/ jk
-
Sorted!!!!!I had swapped U11 and U12 - so after i put in the 165 and it almost fixed things, I went through checking all the chips and sure enough somewhere else I had made the reverse swap. So LXR-7 Birmingham edition is up and running! Now where …
-
Julian you are a genius!!! at the distance of probably a couple of hundred miles you spotted without a picture that I had indeed put a 595 in the U12 socket where a 165 should have lived. This is the problem with clueless noobs thinking they can ma…

hi julian - grabbed 5 minsyou described my situation pretty accurately,however - the copy button and voice mode button both light on first test. the copy button never lights again, and the voice mode button (and voice 1 button) never go off.the ste…

Hi Julian - thanks for your very detailed support. I have a lot of other commitments today & tomorrow & unfortunately may not get to sit down and test (real life intrudes) - but really appreciate your time and effort. will answer yr questi…

ok the story of my failure so far ...well I went out and got a 4GB SDHC Optima memory card from the supermarket, as far as I could tell it was MSDOS(FAT) although couldn't tell whether it was FAT16 or FAT32.[Edit - it's FAT32] I copied the whole co…

ok thanks shiftr will do that now
