Transport interferes with Flexi looping with gate
A Flexi set up like this plays back as expected by toggling the switch. However, if it’s already looping and I enable and disable the transport then it stops. If enable the transport again then it plays back a small portion and stops again. Am I misunderstanding something or is this a bug? I’d expect this Flexi to be fully independent from the transport.

What do you want to achieve?
What you've described sounds like a bug indeed. Thanks for reporting.
I want the loop to keep playing indefinitely regardless of what I do with the transport control. Or do you mean in terms of the end result? It’s a kind of random looper inspired by the Cocoquantus.
Thanks for confirming!
Cocoquantus? 😮
What a freaky device. Cool!
You know, a while ago lot of Drambo users had requested that Flexi stops playing when transport stops. Flexi's mini protest march when starting transport again looks like a bug but the stopping is a design decision, for now at least.
Ah, that's understandable, I think I can work around this by using scratch mode and an LFO for looping, that seems to be unaffected by transport. I guess every one of us wants poor Flexi to grow into different things, precisely because it's already so
flexibleversatile, my personal wish is a continuously recording mode with configurable overdub feedback/decay ;)And expensive! Which is why I'd rather build my own clone with Drambo bricks :)
Absolutely. I've watched most of the video and it looks like there's nothing on offer that couldn't be covered by Drambo modules 😉
