I've had my XW-P1 for a short time now and have started to create some solo synth sounds. I've made a simple detuned sawtooth patch using two oscillators to recreate a classic "mono-synth" sound. I've increased the attack time on both oscillators to take the edge off, preferring something that ramps up quickly rather than instantly playing at full volume. Occasionally, a note will play with a hard attack when played quickly. Is there a way to stop this from happening? Should the attack time on both oscillators be identical? I've set the attack time on both oscillators using one of the knobs. I also want to try and have a ADSR-controlled filter sweep while the sound is held but wanted to get the first problem solved. Just curious and any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Pierre

I finally broke down and ordered a "factory restock" XW-P1. It won't arrive for at least a week since it's on backorder but I'm looking forward to finally getting my first "real" Casio synth since my CZ-101 many years ago. Pierre

Hello! I actually posted about this on Harmony Central a while back, but this seems like a better place to address it, so...I'm just going to copy and paste my post from there because I am lazy. I was trying to record slider movements into Sonar 8.5 while in hex layer mode, and the NRPN data is...unusual. This picture shows the data from moving the nine sliders in hex layer mode. I moved them all from the bottom to the top, but you can see the first six sliders (individual layer levels) put out data that starts in the middle and then wraps around. This is a problem while the XW-P1 is in local off mode and receiving the data from the computer because the levels of the layers become unusable, as a volume of 0 ends up being in the middle of the slider's movement. I hope I am not overexplaining this. The sliders work fine in solo synth and drawbar organ modes. I should add that controlling the levels in a hex tone locally work fine, it's just the MIDI data the sliders send is messed up. And I think it behaves the same whether sending over USB or the 5-pin MIDI port. Is this a known issue or is it something that could be addressed in a firmware update? Or am I just doing something wrong? Oh, and if it matters, I have a gold XW. Thanks for any help!
