DDS 1 Pulse Width (PW) not working after v1.6 update (DDS 2 works fine)

Hi,

I’m having a specific issue with my Super 6 after updating to firmware v1.6.

The Pulse Width (PW) modulation on DDS 1 is completely unresponsive, while it works perfectly on DDS 2. Here is what I’ve observed and already tried:

The Issue:

  • With DDS 1 selected (Mixer 100% left) and SUPER set to OFF, moving the DETUNE/PW slider does not change the sound at all (even on Square/Pulse waveforms).

  • When SUPER is turned ON, the slider works fine for Detuning, which means the physical slider itself is sending data.

  • However, when SUPER is OFF, the PW remains static regardless of the slider position.

What I have tried so far:

  1. Firmware Update: Re-installed v1.6 and performed a factory reset (Holding PATCH 8 on power up).

  2. Waveform Restore: Restored the “FactoryWaveforms” folder to the WAVES directory as per the manual (using the PATCH button unlock method).

  3. Calibration: Performed the MIX/TUNE calibration.

  4. Initial Patch: Tested on a clean initial patch (SHIFT + MANUAL).

  5. DDS Modulator: Confirmed that moving the LFO 1/ENV 1 sliders in the DDS Modulator section also doesn’t affect DDS 1’s PW, even when the source switch is set correctly.

It seems like the PW signal path for DDS 1 is software-locked or failing to map correctly. Since the slider works for Detune, I suspect it’s not a hardware failure of the fader itself.

Has anyone else encountered this or found a fix?

Thanks for your help!


DDS1 has a square wave, not a pulse. PWM is only available on DDS2
