Song playback incorrect when entering Performance Mode

Hi, the problem also exists on Tracker+ firmware 1.0.3. Please help.

I am not sure if this is exactly the same root cause, but here is another project with playback issues when entering performance mode. The arrangement starts with pattern 5, which is a 16 step pattern with a reverse cymbal, and then moves into pattern 1, which is a 128 step drum beat.

If you switch from song mode into performance mode during pattern 5 you’ll find that pattern 1 gets truncated down to 16 steps, but also you’ll hear the reverse symbol in there even though its not in the pattern at all.

If you switch from song mode into performance mode during pattern 1, you’ll find that pattern 5 is played 8 times when playback loops back to the start of the arrangement.

issue encountered on tracker+ 1.0.3, but i’d be curious to hear if it affects anyone with the OG tracker.

i’ve been playing live sets with the tracker as my centerpiece (and even once on it exclusively) lately and this bug comes up every time i try to use performance mode. i’m glad that there is a way around it as long as all your patterns are the same length but that’s not always a good option.

I noticed similar behaviour in Perfomance mode. One other thing - it kinda shows that playing next pattern on screen top info line, but actually continue playing previous one.
One other thing I noticed. for some reason if I play song from beginning and than enter Prefomance mode in middle of song the Step repeat behaviour differs than if I play from current or previous pattern where I going to apply it. I noticed it cause if I play from beggining of song it applies Step repeat to crash which is on the END of pattern, kinda reads it previously) which doesnt happens when I start play directly from this pattern or previous. weird)

I’ve also noticed this happening.
Play Song in Song mode, switch to Perform ready to jam out, but the 16 step pattern repeats unexpectedly.

OG v1.9.1 THX1138.
