whats going on

is this an act of god

Pennnn-ence for my sins

or something simple

what kind of sequencer? HW or SW? Whats the sound module, are you sure its truly midi-thru? only the toms? more elaboration please.

Cubase is the sequencer

http://www.vintagesynth.com/sci/tom.shtml is the drum machine

and the sound module is akai (yeah im using the midi thru port on the back)

so if i have midi channels 1-5 going to the sound module and say channel 10 for drums

the notes on channel 1-5 are effecting the pitch of the drum machine

when i mute channels 1-5 it goes back to normal

whatcha reccon

Oh, I thought you meant it was just the toms, but it is the "Tom" drum machine. lol

I bet the problem is that the individual drum instruments are supposed to respond to pitch through the other channels. This is just a guess, perhaps you can find a manual for the instrument. One of the specs is: "Effects - Individual instrument tuning". So I'm guessing there is a way to ignore this in the instrument itself.
