Yeah, I’ve noticed this too. I didn’t touch the quantisation, I just needed to nudge the microtiming on the brain steps a couple of notches and it fixed it.
Thats nice to know. I thought that nudging only works when quantisation is off.

No there is no export, and I’d be surprised if they added it.
@modulpaule
Does the 1.0.13 update fix this for you? (I haven’t been using Brain yet)
" fix: brain notes would sometimes trigger too late when using high track scale"

yes, as far as i can tell, its fixed.
ok I have a a couple of very basic questions-
1- Is there a list of what the Punch In Effects do?
2- How do I erase parameter automation? I recorded a bassline with Prism, recorded a sweep of the dark grey Shape knob, then I recorded a different track (can’t undo) and now I don’t like what I did with the Shape knob.
I read the manual before the OP-XY arrived, I’m going through a second time but man this thing is packed with features that I can’t remember how to use yet.
Hold down Bar, then press M2 to erase recorded automation.
Thank you!
HI
I wonder where the synth or noise is Gionis, who was touted on the website.
If someone has an idea, I ask for an answer.
Many thanks in advance

Thanks for the answer! Why surprised?
Because songs in OP-XY can be crazy long if you want, unlike the OP-1F where all songs are 6 minutes max. Given how long it takes the OP-1F to export 4 tracks that short, I can’t imagine how XY would do 8 tracks that could be hours long, or how much space it would need. Maybe I’m wrong, but it just seems like not the TE way to me.
I do hope they add some kind of multichannel out for people that want that flexibility though.

on the andertons xy video with william, he says that the op1f deals with audio where the xy deals with data. so the xy can store a million projects since its just keeping the sequencing data and the op1f is actually recording the audio itself so those file sizes are much much larger?

Yes, OP-1F project files are huge compared to the XY project back ups, since the OP-1 projects contain 4 tracks of 6 minute audio at 32bit, even if you’re not using all 4 tracks.
Can anybody help me visualize and understand how to use track scale?
This is from the manual:
"track scale determines the amount of time taken up by one step.
available track scales include: 1,2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 16,1/2
a maximum of four bars can be used. this in combination with the track scale allows for a maximum pattern length of 64 bars, or 1024 16th notes spread across four ‘bars’."
I am not getting that math. 1024 16th notes? How does this work?
At track scale 16, a single step in the sequencer takes a full bar. So, 16 steps in a bar, each one taking 16 times longer, with a maximum of 4 bars (through the bar menu) means that a single sequence can last a maximum of 16x16x4 steps, which is 1024 steps.

Does anyone know what I’m doing wrong? I’m in the sequencer and recording in step recording mode (with the record button pressed). The first bar works normally, but when I switch to the second bar and start entering notes again, it starts overwriting the first bar in this mode again. Is there a trick to this?
Thank you for the reply! I imagined track scale 16 would last one 16th note. 
So at track scale 16 I’m inputting whole notes, then at track scale 8 I’m going to input notes that last a half a bar, at track scale 4 it will be 1/4 bar etc?
At track scale 1/2 I’m inputting 32nd notes?
In general, should I set the track scale for each track to the length of the shortest note in that track to get the longest bar length? Like if my part is all eighth notes would it make sense to set the track scale to 2?
I’ve only ever used on-board synth sequencers and so I’ve not used track scale before. I appreciate the help!
I hesitate to answer because I know so little, but did you do the thing first where you extend the number of bars (hold Bar, press +), and then tap Bar to get to bar 2?
I’ve seen a few people talking about this, might be a bug.
Yes that’s right, although it’s worth noting that the notes don’t need to be that length, you can change the trig length in the bar menu, but that’s the resolution you have on the sequencer buttons. You can also free record and sequence between those steps, although it makes it more difficult to edit.
You could do, but I generally don’t. I choose the length of sequence that I need and the resolution I want, then use a combination of bar scale and number of pages in the bar menu. For example, say I want to sequence some drums with a fill, I might use 2 pages in the bar menu with a scale of 1/2, so I can sequence some quicker notes. On a chords track, I might have a chord progression over 8 bars changing every 2 bars, and all I’d need is a single page with the scale set to 8, because I don’t need higher resolution. Finally, I might have a complex lead line that lasts 4 bars, but it has some weird trills or something, so I set the scale to 4 bars, turn down quantise and then live record.
Do those examples make sense? Of course, it’s totally up to you can get even smarter with the sequencer and use step components to extend the sequence even more. As a result, there are a lot of different ways to get the same result.
