Mixer unmute drum track instrument unmutes several

[JacoboParticipant]

Hello.

I’m having a small problem with this otherwise fantastic piece of software that is the zaquencer. My issue is simple:

When I load a load a pattern it of course loads, including default mutes on both tracks and drum instruments. My problem comes after I want to unmute another instrument right after loading the pattern, what it happens is that several intruments are unmuted. Here is a video that illustrate my problem:

I’m not sure if this is something that I have configured without knowing, or something I haven’t understood right, but my desired behavior is just the unmute of that particular track, not a group of them, well, actually if this is an option I’d like to understand how to get both.

Many thanks.

Hi Jacobo,
thanks for your message and sorry to hear about your problem.
It looks a lot like the dreaded BCR2000 hardware bug, described here:

and here:

In the second link contains hints on how to repair it. I have personally gotten a BCR with the same error to work with these instructions. You need some electronics knowledge to do it though.

Your other option is to get a new BCR and transfer your Zaquencer license (please write to support@zaqaudio.com for a license transfer request). The old BCR can be kept for parts or sold. They still have value even broken.

Best,
Christian

Thanks for your update Christian, I’ll try the fix proposed and let you know how it goes. I’ll try any other tricks I could think of before.
