hi, I have a focusrite saffire pro40... wonderful audio interface, but its built in midi interface is crap. I use external sequencers (quasimidi sirius and raven) that have very small song memory (16 and 10 songs), and when I dumped my songs back from pc I only got a bunch of random notes instead of my songs... luckily, I also dumped everything on my ensoniq sd1 (it receives sysex dumps that can be stored on old dsdd floppy disks) before erasing the memory, so I managed to get my songs back... I contacted focusrite staff, and they admitted that there are bugs in the drivers that have yet to be solved... that's not professional anyway... hadn't I got the sd1, all my sequenced songs would have been lost forever...
