Well colour me wrong, but from a reply back on my ticket this isn’t considered a bug
If not a bug then it’s an oversight and workflow inconsistency - I thought the whole point of the Auto Channel functionality was that you could offload anything that can musically be done internally via the limited keys to a bigger version with velocity etc
I don’t know off the top of my head of other areas where the possibilities diverge when using an external keyboard instead, but this seems like an obvious place to ensure that the user gets the same ability off-board as on-board
Perhaps this is not as straightforward to rectify as it appears to be, there may be complications, but I am surprised that given awareness of the inconsistency they aren’t making efforts to change this right away, it seems like a significant new shortcoming in the intended Auto Channel functionality, to me anyway
