Does anyone know why I get these weird bandings or what ever they are called?

I think that is the layer stop/start points. You may be able to change the start point setting and see if it makes a difference.

only one axes? only one wall? or you get them on all axes and all walls?
this looks like a microstepping issue some drivers have at lower speeds so they skip steps, depending on your driver solution vary (if that's the culprit), for drv8xxx you need to add few external diodes, for alegro you need to switch it to "always mixed decay" ..

In the Settings Layer tab there's a section headed Start Points. The descriptions are self explanatory and if you hover on the radio buttons for a second or two then tooltips will appear that give a little more info.
