Followers do not respond when sequencing chord progressions using external MIDI.
What should this feature achieve?
When sequencing one synth set to chord mode using external MIDI notes the other synths set to followers should behave similarly as when the physical pads are used to play notes on the “leading” chord synth.
Enabling the grid followers to respond to externally sequenced chords would turbocharge the musicality of the Synth by allowing users to better interact with external gear (not to mention free up a hand for controlling things).
Are there any workarounds?
No.
Any links to related discussions?
I honestly wasn’t sure whether this post proposes the same feature because it references an “internal sequencer” which confused me but it seems to be similar:
This should be on the voting board. This is 100% what I expected to happen, and man, how good would this be to sequence the chord notes on my play and have the synth respond.
Yea, thanks. I’m shocked that more people aren’t calling for this functionality. I was being patient as they were working on bug fixes for the initial firmware updates, but I see now that they’ve “promoted” some of these wishes to be voted on and I was a bit dispappointed this was not one of them. If this isn’t added at some point, it’s a huge missed opportunity IMHO.
