Hi, sorry to ressurect an old thread but after a long delay using my eurorack I decided to reassemble my system and get back to creating music...
I had not used the launchpad since v1.21 as I was experimenting with all the new features and I was using v1.24 firmware up till now (just upgraded to v1.26).
I am having the same issue as the original poster (I have the same v1 launchpad as him also).
Everything works great - I can start patterns etc. and play notes on any track using note mode, but as soon as I switch back to live mode a note is triggered and held from whatever the last midi channel was set to (and a red trigger and current note shown on the screen).
(Midi channel 1 is of course reserved for launchpad, the issue happens with all other channels).
The only way to clear the stuck notes is to use the "all sounds off" feature, then everything is normal until I use the note mode and swap back to live mode again.
I just tried v1.21 again and there are no stuck notes, I can switch between live and notes mode and it all works perfectly.
I can confirm the stuck notes happens with v1.24 and 1.26, I haven't tried any other versions.
I can't see how it is a launchpad issue as the behaviour changes between firmware verions. Something changed after v1.21
Right now I have a tough choice- use v1.21 and be able to use the launchpad to also play midi parts but lose all the cool features of later firmware, or lose the midi parts and keep the features
I hope you might find a bit of time to have a look at this issue... many regards and keep up the great work.
