I just got the Kingston Canvas Select Plus that I linked to earlier, formatted it put the samples back on it then tested it and I get crackles. So far the only card that works for me without any problems is the Samsung card that came with the distingEX.

Hi guys, new here. Came across this thread on Disting Ex as I’ve also had issues with it. I’ve tried the SD card recommended in the manual (Sans Disk) and then Os at Expert Sleepers suggested trying the Kingston Canvas one. I have audio glitches on most sets with both cards, but the soft piano set (the youtube demo that sold it to me) works fine on both!

My own samples play back terribly (44.1, 16bit) and a lot of the stock ones glitch out unless I reduce the voice count to as low as 3.

Ohm, could you let me know the exact spec of the two Samsung EVO plus cards that you tested - you mentio0end one that worked and one didn’t?

Byzero, could you also please share the details of the SD card that works for you?

It seems crazy that the cards Os @ Expert Sleepers recommended don’t even seem to work, and that there’s such variety between user’s results!

Have you tried increasing the gate offset parameter to its maximum? That helped for me (although so far I’ve been using the standard sample sets).

Hey Simon, thanks, yes I tried that :slight_smile: I was also getting the same issue with MIDI.

On top of the audio issue, I’ve started getting a tuning issue too! When using more than 1 CV pair, the other gate inputs are creating variable pitches. I contacted Expert Sleepers, and they said it probably needs recalibrating.
I’ve only had it a week!

the yellow one is the one that works for me

Damn, I just bought some of the red ones…

I appreciate the Disting Ex has many amazing features on it, and the SD Multisample playback is just one of them - but are there any real alternatives to this particular function in other Eurorack modules?

TBH the multisample playback was one of the main reasons I got the Ex

1010music Bitbox Micro is arguably better for multisampling

Is norns capable of controlling the Disting EX via crow using i2c? If so, what are some of the overall use cases/possibilities? Do any norns scripts currently take advantage of this functionality? Thanks!

Crow just had an update for this type of functionality, but I think Norns will need an update to be able to address it. I think the capabilities are the same as what Teletype can do already, so you could look there to see what is possible.
