650 not responding as expected ...

650 not responding as expected ...

2009-04-25 by Jonathan Snipes

Hey group,

I was using my MOTM 650 tonight very simply with a MIDI keyboard in  
1/1/1/1 mode ... it froze up & hung a gate, as it does sometimes, so I  
rebooted it (as always) which usually fixes it ... however, this time  
it didn't ... I just have a hung gate on output channel 1, and it  
doesn't respond to any MIDI ... If I change the mode to anything other  
than 1/1/1/1 mode (or modify any settings) eventually I get a "Hosed  
Q3" message displayed on the screen, and I lose all button  
functionality ... so I reboot the unit and begin this fun process again.

I can't find any mention of a "hosed" message in the manual, and a  
google search for Motm 650 "Hosed Q3" returned no results.

Anyone else run into this?

Insert "Can of worms" comment here...

There are issues with the 650 that will likely never see an update or resolution. Yours John is one of them, if even only in the category of stability. Sad indeed with respect to the promise of the unit, the superiority it could demonstrate above Kenton and the rest, and the lack of ownership we all feel has been demonstrated in many respects.

However, Paul has stated that anyone not happy with the unit overall can return it. I don't think many of us, even with all the bitching and moaning, have taken him up on that. I still have mine!

Jonathan, you probably did this but just in case, did you also power off
your MIDI keyboard and any MIDI patcher in the chain etc too? 

If you log on to the Yahoo web site for this group you can search the
archive and find a dew mentions of 'hosed' relating to the 650 over the
years.

Best of luck!

Well - it actually seems to be a problem with Redmatica Autosampler,  
which I've never had before so I'm not sure what the deal is.

I get hung notes that I can't get rid of by setting my scan parameters  
range, which in turn crashes the 650 ... I use this all the time and  
today is the first day this has ever happened.  Odd.

gotta love computers.

And, yes - I too am anxiously awaiting firmware updates to the 650 :-)
