Re: [emax] emax2 no response to sysex.... plays midi though

2014-04-12 by madgicgadget@...

thank you for replying.
I'm using a pc. core2quad, 4gigs ram. i have both windows7 and xp.
i've tried both usb-midi cable and a soundcard with mpu401. at first i assumed it was just something with the usb cable that the emax didnt like, so i installed a pci soundcard with gameport mpu401. still the emax doesnt show incoming data when i try to send/receive sample dump.
in samplewrench i selected send sample and after 30 seconds of nothing i clicked to abort, and then emax showed incoming data { controller:64 ch:16 val:0
almost same thing in soundforge when i click to send sample the emax still shows "waiting for midi data" then when i click to cancel sending the emax shows { controller:121 ch:16 val:0
emxp gives error 1048 emax response 0000 blah blah, when i try to initiate a sample dump. emax says it's waiting for midi data
i use renoise to sequence songs, and the emax receives midi and plays like it should. and the emax sends midi to renoise and will control softsynths just like it should. using both the usb-midi cable and the mpu401 port.
i don't know what else to try except maybe a different computer/motherboard. i have an old p4 i can piece together. i dont believe that has anything to do with it, but just to try EVERYTHING why not.
before i try to send sample dump i go into emax master/9/2 select midi channel 1 leave the other options off. in the pc software i select midi sds/16 bit output to midi channel 1 usbmidi or mpu401 in/out. i try to send 16bit mono 44 or 22 khz
