When using Maschine 2 in SONAR as an instrument, the pitch of a sample is pitched down after stopping and playing back the project.
Step by step, this is how it happened. I loaded up a kit from the Maschine 2 software (in SONAR) and after recording a pattern (for instance, on the kick/snare), playing back the project triggers the sample at a lower pitch.
There's too much weirdness going on in SONAR!
I that hope this can be resolved soon.
Update:
Simply uncheck 'Zero Controllers When Play Stops' (in Preferences under Project then MIDI).
Thanks, guys and a special thanks to Seth Kellogg for the suggestion. Cheers!
