Keyboard Layers Pan effect problem, Middle C piano sound distorted string resonance?

Hi! I have a new CTX3000 about 3 weeks old, and I'm loving it. I immediately updated to 1.0.8. I've been exploring every functionality and I have found these issue:

 

1. U2, L1, L2 layers don't Pan as much as U1. 

I setup split mode to default piano tone, I set the split point to the actual middle key (F#4), I set the pan of L1 to the left speaker, U1 to the right. It seemed to work fine on speakers, but when I put on headphones, I noticed L1 is not panned as much as U1 even if it's set to 64 (it sounds like it is panned to more or less 30), U1 set to -63. And then I tried layers U2 and L2, and it works the same as L1, not panning fully. I then tried to pan Pad1 and Pad2, and it works just like U1, it fully pans to left and right. Is there a setting somewhere that causes this? Is this supposed to work like this? Did you found this problem too? If not please try it and analyze. Edit: resolved thanks to Brad Saucier

 

2. Distorted string resonance on Middle C, and some neighbouring notes.

I also noticed this when I started using headphones. It is present on all acoustic piano tones. I checked if it's just my headphones, tried to use others and it's still there. I tried to hear it on speakers and found out it is also there. The problem now is I can't unhear it every time I play middle C.

Is this the same in yours too? Is it a recording error (I'm loving the fact that the notes have different resonance across the keyboard though)? Or maybe my tones data got corrupted during power loss? Should I just re-update my keyboard?

 

I will appreciate all the answers, thank you very much!

1. Also present on X5000 and not only on piano or stereo sounds, but on others too. I thought it was my hearing issues, but as it turns out, this is a software bug.

It is not a bug, but a limitation. Effects (might as well as panning) are removed or changed in quality when using multiple DSP tones on keyboard layers.

 

What do you think about the middle C sound?
