MODO BASS whole "engine" stops sound when playing E string

Postby Cdbaksu84 » Sun Jan 21, 2024 3:29 pm

This is a weird bug and I'm hoping anyone has any advice:

When playing notes on the E string the whole plugin just drops the sound. Pressing the ! panic button revives it.

Quite simply unplayable.

Thank you for your reply, Peter. Unfortunately I came to the forums after unsuccessfully reaching out to the official technical support. It's been months if not years, and there's still no response. Let alone a fix.

@Cdbaksu84 This is a bug other users have experienced and reported, included myself. Sometimes it happens more frequently than others. Support told me they let Engineering know. You aren't alone, but it hasn't been fixed yet.

This is happening to me as well. Any time the E string is played (5 string bass) all sound stops.

So I've found a possible workaround fix ... The issue seems to be triggered by the lowest string. So if I need 5 strings, I add a 6th string to the bass, then the problem happens every time the 6th string is triggered. So I add a keyswitch to force E string (5th) whenever the MODO Bass player would automatically choose the B string (6th). This seems like it should be a high priority fix since it leaves the whole workflow completely messed up.
