Hello Silas,

do you have really only a connection MIDI-KBD->MCV4 or is there 
something else involved in the MIDI wiring (Merger, Computerinterface, 
Some MIDI-Thru...)? You should check first with nothing else but the 
KBD-Out to MCV4-In connection (and DO NOT connect MCV-MIDI-Out to 
KBD-MIDI-In!)
