I'm just a couple of weeks into my orientation with the BR1600CD and I have a problem:
When I program bass patterns, they play back perfectly as long as I'm in pattern mode. When I import that pattern, say U001, into a song, it plays back differently. For example:
A one measure bass pattern featuring a root/5th on the 1 and 3 beats plays fine in pattern mode but as soon as I import that pattern into a song it plays back root and 2 notes sharp of the 5th. (In the key of D maj the notes are D and A in pattern mode but play back D and B in Song mode.) This is very frustrating and I simply cannot proceed until I get it solved. On other occasions thesecond note varies but it is never right. I have tried every type of save/write etc. that I can find in the manual with no change in results.
I don't think it's the unit unless there was a bad batch because I tried another unit in the store and had the same result. Roland Tech Support is shut down for the holidays and nobody at my dealership has a solution. Can anybody out there suggest what might be the problem? Regards, Jay
