RE: [xl7] Help MP7 wont boot

2003-03-31 by Kris Musard

After many power cycles I got the machine to boot back
up.  I was able to play my patterns and presets
successfully.  I thought everything was OK, then I
tried to play some patterns from cubase via MIDI and
the LED on the MP7 went crazy.  It started scrolling
from left to right displaying alot of strange
characters.  I stopped the midi transmission and the
stuff continued to scroll across the MP7 screen.  I
powered the unit off and now I have the same problem
again of the machine not booting and all the LEDS
remaining lit.  Has anyone run into this problem or
similar before?
