Hi there, I´m experiencing the exact same problem but with a Nord G2. It´s curious you mention it because I only noticed it a couple of days ago when I tryed seq the g2 with the MD. i have the MD for like 2 years now. The crackling level is absurdly loud. Everything gets quiet when I unplug the midi cable. Tested all sorts of cable combination and the problem remains. Tonight I´ll make further tests. I was thinking it was due to unproper grounding of my apartment´s outlets but if you have the same problem I´m starting to get worried. I had a virus b in the past and I never noticed this. nor with other synths, includind midified analogs so I guess the MD may be playing some role in this. But never with keyboards, which is the common thing between our rig... not sure how this can be causing the problem though... do you have any other kbd you can test this on? lets hope we sort this out. > > > there is a groundloop between the midi out of the MD and the midi > in of > > > the Indigo... the loop becomes most obvious when something is > going out > > > the midi out when all signals, including hitting the MD transport > > > buttons, make a little click/chirp. >
