Greetings slothmachine,

a couple of other possibilities to consider.

i have had systematic (seem random at first glance but have some sort of pattern) failure of MIDI interfaces occasionally. the MIDI spec says that a receiver of MIDI data should pass on anything that it can not process and get on with the rest. however it seems (no real proof of this but it has happened enough to suggest so) that some devices can choke on something they do not process properly, a sysex message possibly. they may recover or may need to be rebooted. for this reason, i have a few different interfaces (different brands and models) and when one just doesn't seems to work for some bizarre reason that i can not figure out, i just try another one. of course it could be something in the DKV firmware that does not come into play often enough to have been identified by other users. cyclical failures can be problems with data buffer management. if there is some strange bug in the firmware, changing a mode or setting might allow the firmware to operate differently and not hit the bug. try an update if there is one,
