bug with macro control on fat-synths sustain and glide time parameters

Bug Description

Hi everyone,
I’ve encountered a potential bug in the Polyend Tracker Mini. It seems that the macro controls do not work properly with the sustain and glide time parameters in the FAT Synth. when i am in song mode and change to another pattern, the macro is not transferred to the parameters, the macro only becomes active when i start the corresponding pattern directly, if the pattern runs after the previous one, the macro has no effect.
Now i figured out that i have to set !OFF before set new Makro, if not makro not work, only when i pause and start the pattern, the Makro parameter work right, is that a bug or a feature?

Steps to Reproduce

Fat synth
Pattern1: Macro 3 at value 127 on step0
pattern2: Macro 3 at value 0 on step0
Sustain
Sustain
Glide time

in song mode when pattern changing no makro parameter respond
when stop and pattern directly start the Makros work fine

and my kickdrum from percussion synth have a sweep sound that phases in correlation with decay, sounds bad!

Occurrence / Frequency

Always

Found in Firmware

Bug confirmed, thank you for this report - however I can only recreate it IF = the macro controls are on seperate lanes so I believe the workaround for now would be to make sure the macro is always placed on either FX1 or FX2, if a macro triggered on FX1 is engaged on FX2 in a new pattern it fails to change.

The workaround doesn’t really sound intuitive to me.
I was able to solve the problem by sending the device back to thomann and ordering M8. I even have tables, the most important thing for me are tables, without tables it is not a complete tracker for me.

No problem, thank you for reporting it because I was able to fix a song of mine I didn’t realize what the issue was!
