Re: [bc2000] Partial success, but partial fail (BCR2000/MKS50)

What kind of MIDI patchbay are you using? If the MKS MIDI indicator flashes, when you tweak BCR knobs, but there's no change in sound, then most likely it would be a MIDI channel mismatch (in most devices "MIDI" LED means "incoming MIDI messages", not "incoming MIDI messages that I know how to process"). If the indicator doesn't flash, the routing in the patchbay is not working, as you would expect.

It appears, using Mode S4, that I got MKS50.syx (from this group) loaded into a Preset on my BCR2000. That's great. Unforutnately no response from the MKS50.


I have the BCR and MKS, and my control keyboard, all connected to my MIDI patchbay with the control keyboard and BCM merged into the MKS. The MKS MIDI indicator flashes and the synth plays sound in response to they keyboard but doesn't do anything when I turn knobs on the BCR. The BCR shows red LED activity on MIDI OUT A when I move knobs.


MIDI Exclusive is on in the patch (on the MKS) I am trying to modify via the BCR.


Any ideas?
