Guess what? All my buttons from Pattern Select until Reverse were disabled, out of function I mean totally dead! No lights, no action.
Of course I did a "restart" of the machine and everythings fine again but I was scared like fuck for a moment and I asked myself if this happenend to anybody, too and what may the reason for this. I 've bad luck right now with electronical things. My monitor box fucked up, my TV won't start anymore since today ( it's european soccer championships right now :cry: ) and my 404 is acting like a b*t*h . Am I cursed? :D

My 303 likes to scare me every once in a while. Sometimes it's the pattern sequencer, sometimes the samples freeze up and get warped into a sound that I can only compared to the fake .mp3 files that used to get loaded on Limewire etc. Still hasn't died yet, initializing the card always works though.

i think it's normal, i think??? but yeah they do weird things at times, almost as if they have a mind of their own. i just power down & then power up & she's back to normal, basically a Crash, i guess.... you're not alone Wax :wink:

My 606 has done some strange things over the years, but only sporadically, and so far not too worrying. These boxes do have little computers in them and it sometimes shows.. :lol:

with all the hours I have kept my SP404's power on I dont think I ever had anything strange happen (hope I aint jinxed now). Cant say that about my MPCs, they do crazy things sometimes even when they were new.

I was teaching my 2 year old nephew how to play football yesterday. He's super good at controlling the ball while he's running.
