Weird glitch - songs started to jump when I choose certain presets

[spikeymcspikeface]

Hi, a strange glitch has started to happen - it's not all the time, but it's enough that it's becoming a problem ...

Sometimes when I choose a preset loaded as part of a song the GT jumps to another song in the set that happens to use the same present (eg. if I select my lead patch in Song A, it jumps to Song B which uses that lead patch as well). It's not always the same presets effected, and it's not clear if there's any reason for the song it jumps to (it's not as if it's always the previous song that used that preset or the next song or whatever - it seems random, albeit it is a song programmed as part of that setlist). As you'd imagine, this is a bit of a challenge when you're in the middle of a show and suddenly you find the GT's jumped to the wrong song and you have to cycle forwards or backwards through the set to get back to the right song ...!

I've not really changed anything about my set-up for a long time, other than occasionally adding new presets or new songs, and everything's been fine for ages. I can't see or think of anything obvious to explain why this happens, so I'm at a bit of a loss ...

Any thoughts / suggestions ? Thnx.

I haven't seen any other reports of this so that's a good thing, but it does make it much more difficult to try and resolve, unfortunately.

I know this is a tough ask, but if you could somehow document or note the setlist, song, and presets involved, that could possibly help shed some light on the issue. At a minimum it would provide a starting point of where to look.

I have always been a huge proponent of backups. Whether it's computers, phones, effect processors or even MIDI footcontrollers. Date and organize them, you never know when they might come in handy.

A few things that might be relevant:

- Make sure that you have the GT's MIDI Receive Channel parameter set to None. Or, if you need it enabled (because, perhaps, you're controlling the Mastermind with a PC or other MIDI device) make sure that MIDI Receive Channel is set to a channel other than the one the Axe-Fx is on.

- Make sure MIDI PC Mapping is not enabled in the Axe-Fx. This is pretty much guaranteed to cause problems.

- Last, try turning off Poll State in the Mastermind's device settings for the Axe-Fx.

Great, thanks - I've checked all of that, and have turned off Poll State for the AxeFx. I'll see how I go - as mentioned in my original post, it's a bit random insofar as sometimes this problem happens, sometimes it doesn't (I had 3 shows this weekend and it was a problem each time, hence my post); it's not always the same patches that cause the songs to jump, and there's no pattern I can see in terms of which songs it jumps to ... all very mysterious. So I'll report back if I'm still having problems ...

Thanks again.
