Re: tx81z - bcr2000 usb midi out

2013-04-03 by sghookings@...

If I understand your signal path,

BCR (MIDI OUT) -> (MIDI IN ) TX cool
BCR (MIDI IN ) <- (MIDI OUT) TX cool

I am guessing maybe in S1 or S3 mode

When you connect via USB you have to be in U mode.
U1 or U3 just as an example (there are 4 modes)


Something like 
BCR -> USB -> sequencer -> USB -> BCR

And with extra midi channels in sequencer pumping midi to the tx. can work but the sequencer needs to echo the midi thru. And what are the signal paths to/from kit. And probably you need to choose channels carefully.
And careful ... you can create midi feedback loops which will crash the bcr. Reboot bcr and it should be fine.

So perhaps draw out what you want to achieve.
In doing that recall about channels ... what midi channel is tx programmed on?

Once you drawn a diagram and made a few attempts, post either an ASCII picture or stash a simple diagram in the files section and repose the question , but I think when you draw it out you will understand who isn't passing the message on, and rectify it.
Using midiox can really help here (strong hint).
