Problems...

[strawinsky]

Hi,I had the dubious priviledge of owning the first G2 in the UK,back at the start of the year. Since then I've experienced some problems with it,which for some reason,Clavia (Sweden) can't or won't deal with.I've have to say right now that I'm less than happy with their attitude:I wasn't even afforded the courtesy of an acknowledgement when I first contacted them with a question (and a compliment),though I've found Hand in Hand to be very helpful.

Hopefully someone on this forum may shed some light on a couple of problems I've been experiencing.Firstly,I can't get the G2 to change programmes over MIDI (initiated from Logic) in patch mode.It works in performance mode however,but I want to work predominently in patch mode.I'm (still) waiting for Clavia to answer this.The MIDI activity light comes on when I attempt to change patches,but nothing actually happens.

Secondly,and more worryingly,I'm experiencing intermittent clicking sounds on some patches I've created,which render them unusable in a track.I can't figure out what could be causing this,but it sounds similar to a clocking/sync error.It isn't that:I've checked my system,and the rest of my equipment is fine.

Finally,I wish to use the G2 editor on the Mac as well as the PC.I copied my patches over to the Mac and found that,although I can open them successfully,they will not save in the same folder they came from!I have to create a new folder into which they will save.The icon and file extensions are identical,though.This is an inconvenience, rather than a serious problem,but I wondered whether anyone else had come across this.

Thanks in advance should anyone be able to help.
