Re: Four Dots ....

2014-02-01 by steve_the_composer

These are the basic diagnostic questions I'd ask:

(1) Are you using midi, not usb?
(2) Do you have full round trip midi (in-> out & out -> in)?
(3) Are you using a cheap usb->midi interface (usu. 1x1) which might fail to handle sysex properly, if at all?
(4) Are you updating from an OS that needs the command prep?

Hope this helps.

Steve
