I am getting a weird issue on the blackbox with latest firmware.
I created a simple pattern which trigger midi on each pad; each pad is associated to a midi channel played on an external synth.
When the pattern start playing, it does play fine; but halfway through (the pattern has 64 steps total); the buttons lights start to flash and the beat goes off tempo. You can tell by looking at the screen that the device is suffering to even update the screen.
Why is this happening? I am playing just midi data, nothing else. I recorded on the device each part, and each pad has assigned a small sample I used just for the sake of it, because if I play external midi I can't record midi on the blackbox if there is no sample assigned. I checked if the issue was the clock, but it seems that the issue happen no matter what, either if I use the internal clock, the one from the midi connection or from USB.
Here is a video that show the issue. I would expect that the device can play all 16 pads with 4 notes max per pad, but if I am just using midi out, why does it behave this way?
