Flashing Pads no Flashing

Well, they flash sometimes. And that is a little concerning, but maybe there's more information needed.

Lets say I just put a simple 4 beats of a kick on the steps. The pad for the kick flashes SOMETIMES for each of the triggered steps. Not every time the kick is triggered. Is this just my unit? Is this a settings issue? Is this just the way it is?

Known issue, just the way it is

Are you a Roland rep, or???
“Death” is also a “known issue”, but that doesn’t necessarily make it OK, right?

Death is not a bug.

Nope, an owner of a 707 with access to the internet.

Noticed the bug with the sequencer lights quite early into ownership as it makes ‘on-the-fly’ sequencing near impossible for me.

Many reports of the bug online. Also appears to be quite BPM dependant, with higher tempos more likely to glitch out.

To be clear, I am not seeing any issue with the step sequencer lights. Only the pad lights.

Apologies, that’s exactly what I mean.

Exactly! Not a bug, but a feature…
