I'm having far too much fun with the iMS-20, and I'm recreating some of my favorite old songs for fun. Sadly, they have a lot of pads/sweeps, and I seem to be unable to get that to work within the drum machine.

The longest I can get a signal to hold for is 8 steps. If I could get the signal to hold for the full 16 steps, I'd be in business!

Another way, how can I build a "bassline" with Drum 6 that just holds a whole note?

Similarly, a bassline I'm playing with is 8 steps long and hits on the odd steps only. I've set up the bpm delay to 1/16 (so each step gets echoed).

In synth mode, if I have the gate to 1, 3, 5, and 7 set to 100%, the delay works as advertised. It sounds like I want it to. (The even steps are set to 0%)

If I bring the *same exact* preset to Drum 6, however, with all the gates set to "one-shot" (all the way), it sounds close, but not the same.

I've got a 4.7mb bounce of the two variations here:

I suspect that gating is responsible somehow, but I'm not sure.

Thanks for any insight!
