For me, it happened that my A6 froze during the boot but it's very rare.
I wouldn't recommend doing too many reboots after reboots.
Where is the point in that, anyway.
To listen if your voices have a real difference with the others, switch
on your unit, do an auto-tune, switch on the arpeggiator, go in the Kbd
Mode menu (in the left side of you unit, by pressing Mono/Poly) and put
the Assign parameter of the voices in Rotary mode instead of Lowest. In
this way all voices will be triggered and cycled in rotary. Well, don't
be astonished of the very slight differences from voice to voice, this
is analog technology and no analog voice in any analog machine is an
exact clone of the other. That's what makes also an analog machine so
organic.
