Just received a new Desktop. Updated firmware to 0.30. Any encounter when going to preset D2 there’s a weird glitch and then next notes you play there’s a huuuge noise blast?

FWIW, I went through every other bank and preset and could not repeat this. So I just saved an init blank patch over D2 and hopefully this won’t show up again.

With firmware version 0.26 we have boosted the output signal generated by the VCA by +6dB and also improved the signal to noise ratio by the same amount. As a result, some of the patches - particularly those with previously high **ENV LEVEL** settings - might cause clipping. Whenever this is the case, readjusting the **ENV LEVEL** setting in the VCA section will solve the issue. Please note that the **MASTER VOLUME** setting has no effect on the amount of gain staging happening in the VCA section, meaning that clipping artifacts can even occur when the **MASTER VOLUME** is set to low amounts.

In short: If you feel like a patch is causing too much clipping, simply readjust the **ENV LEVEL** setting in the VCA section and save the patch with the new setting.

Thanks for the info! As a new user, I was slowly getting acquainted with the Super 6 yesterday.

Happy to say that if I respect the clipping levels, all modulations are super duper and glitch-free. All the audio-rate stuff is wonderful!
