VC4 500 IDEX IS Y-axis
Just upgraded to the Toro titanium tube to fix my first layer issues and started re-doing the belt tension process. Used the GATS system to set tension with about 4.5kg of tension and got the following input shaper graphs on my y-axis. They look pretty awful, but all the x-axis charts look pretty respectable with MZV recommendations. I am at a loss for what may be causing it. I've traced belt paths, made sure they're centered on the idler stacks and pulleys, made sure the gantry is square (confirmed with beacon calibration), tried high tension, tried low tension, added zip ties to the umbilical, removed them, relocated them...whatever this is seems like something big that I am missing. Any ideas?

have you used 4.5kg on both x and y? i got better graphs with more tension on y than x
Yes, I used the same weight on both the core xy and hybrid belts. I'll put a little extra tension on the hybrid belts and see if there is an improvement.
keeping an eye on this one too cause im having issues with Y as well. ive just tighted the hybrids more and will give it another go to see if it improves
