Help with CZ-5000 MIDI Out Problem?
2004-03-02 by h2a2p
Hello All, Been using my CZ-5000 as a MIDI Controller for the past few years. Had to break down my mini studio last month so I setup the CZ at home. I wanted to learn sending Sysex commands to the CZ, but kept getting this same incorrect response from the CZ. So I tried just recording some notes into my sequencer like I always do and it appears that isn't working now either. It seems like the CZ is not sending out the right MIDI, like every key I press it is sending the same data, something like a reset command. I ran a program to monitor the MIDI input to the PC and it looked like the exact same data was being sent to the PC no matter what key i pressed, and my sequencer can't record anything, its like the sequencer is reset/stopped every key i press. Anyone ever heard of something like this happening? Anyone know if there is some kind of system reset that I can try on the CZ-5000 to try to get it working? Could I possibly have sent a Sysex command that did something to the MIDI out on the CZ? I'm worried that something on the CZ got fried or something. Man I will be totally bummed if it is broke for good :( Well, if anyone has any input I would appreciate it. Thanks! Mike
