Foundation of a track I'm working on which I turned into a long (boring ?) dub version introducing recently UW upgraded MD and SPL gear (Dynamaxx and Vitalizer MKII), all other sounds are Mono + NL2x partly processed through Mono. One pattern muting/unmuting with CTRL ALL machine handlings.

Machinedrum SPS-1 / SPS-1UW OS1.29b beta OS release, bug fixed
We have updated the Machinedrum OS according to the bug report that was compiled by the elektron-user.com users. We would like to post it on elektron-users.com for the people who took part in compiling the bug list to try it out to see if we got it all right!
In this one we have avoided adding any features, because we want to stay on a stable release before continuing adding stuff.
Please not that this is a beta release, and strange things could happen, however we hope that it will be working well due to the avoidance of new features and extensive testing.
We would like to have feedback on possible bugs in this release before the 27th of June if possible.
Please test all aspects as extensively as possible! Use elektron-users.com for bug discussion and if needed, please compile a new list to the 27th
of June.
Thanks everyone for helping!

My little ram-only experiment, ch 15 is a R1 machine as a feedback oscillator, rest is just p1... quite fun. Play with filter settings on the rec machine. (and maybe not all channels at once)
Mp3 available under "UW - sound examples"
A Seceret Conversation i overheard whilst i was experimenting with Ram Record only
Enjoy....
for use with rom machines as an audio clock.
A track from MD-UW. Just muting things in and out.
Please ignore...just a simple sample for a friend
this one's a little better I hope.
This is a composite of two passes. The left channel is an impulse on quarter notes at 120 BPM, with all other tracks muted. The right channel is the same impulse track, but with all other tracks unmuted and their mix volumes turned to zero. I wanted to see if there would be a difference.
Both passes were recorded to a Sony HiMD MZ-RH1. While I concur with David that a DAW is an acceptable means to capture and present sample-accurate recordings, I have opted to use a dedicated, realtime recording device to address concerns voiced by Nathan and others.
Here are the first six peak to peak measurements.
1 to 2: 22016
2 to 3: 22112
3 to 4: 22016
4 to 5: 22048
5 to 6: 22112
6 to 7: 22016
...
You can follow the rest by opening up the wave file in your DAW. There appears to be a periodic fluctuation, but in the first six peaks, it's less than a millisecond at 96 samples. I'm not really concerned about the "musical" effect this entails, but I don't think these numbers are as extreme as the ones David has reported. David, what say you?
The right channel, which was recorded with other tracks unmuted, but mixed to silence, is very interesting. You'll note that the first peak lines up exactly with the left channel, but they're all over the place, relatively speaking, after that!
First MD-UW track.
Monomachine only song straight to multitracker, no efx added.
