Testing results:
-
edit patterns + save patterns + external power off = patterns not saved
-
edit patterns + save project + external power off = patterns not saved
-
edit patterns + save pattern + save project + external power off = patterns not saved
-
edit patterns + internal power off = patterns saved (though I expect not when switching projects)
So it seems it retains nothing if not turned off with the internal button. That’s counter-intuitive. When there are explicit save functions available I expect it to work regardless of the power down method.
@eangman This is really something I would expect to find in the manual. And the behavior of older boxes is by far preferable to this…
