I just got a Roland MKS-80 (super jupiter rack module), and it worked great for a few days, and I was really learning to appreciate it.
But then it started getting some hickups. Some notes are not playing, or sound wrong. It was consistently for certain keys/notes, so at first i thought that it was caused by a wired combination of parameters for the patch but then I noticed that the keys that failed changed when i selected the same patch again later.
I am not sure what could be causing this. Just after I select a new patch everything works great, but after hitting a few keys some of the notes fall out.
Does anyone know what could be wrong with it?
Thanks!

Re: Roland MKS-80 missing notes
Sounds like a faulty voice. If you select a patch that's in WHOLE mode, then play 8 notes, which note(s) drop out or sound out of whack?
If you try one of the Split modes, you should be able to determine which of the voice cards (upper or lower) is causing your issues.

Re: Roland MKS-80 missing notes
Did you ever mark out what was problem.
Mine does something similar. When in whole mode every 8th note does not sound. If I’m in split mode all the notes for both upper and lower have no issues.
