Hard to tell whether this is intentional but I haven't quite figured out the pattern yet.

When I have a a "long"? audio track like 4 bars and I scroll forward a bit and play while holding down <>, it seems like the unmuted audio tracks don't actually play the first time. But if I press play while holding <> a second time, it starts playing. If I stop and pretty play again while holding <>, it plays again. Which leads me to thinking the audio file was too big to load in time the first time before some timeout. But if so, I rather it joins in late rather than never playing.

Did I understand what's going on correctly?

Sorry I've been asking a lot of questions Though since I'm somewhat guessing this is a common use, it might be beneficial to others since I can't find existing questions on this.

How can I program in a pitch bend automation? To create a string bend or slide effect. I know I can live record it with MIDI pitch bends but I couldn't figure out how to do it manually in the sequencer.

I guess it could be worked around (for synths) using portamento. But I also don't want to affect the entire clip for cases where I specifically want polyphony and some other times I want a slide.

I seem to still be hitting a freeze about 3 times a day (I'm still on 3.1.0. Waiting to be allowed into the Facebook group).

Besides the E324/E325, I've been seeing some other variants. In one case, most of the screen stopped updating and the main pads don't react. But audition pads still work and I can still play/pause the song. But I can't save.

In another case (I've been hitting this more frequently), everything locks up and the device actually outputs a constant bit crushed sounding sound.

Restarting fixes it in every case (but I lose my work of course). The only commonality I can remember again is that they always occurred while auditioning some sounds from a factory preset kit.

It doesn't do the same thing in audio clips as it does for midi or synth clips. Presetting a length in an audio clip before recording doesn't do much (the very subtle effect it has is to actually let you stop the recording in a length that's a multiple of the length, but you still have to perform a timed stop yourself).
