Hi Burt,

Sorry for late reply. We were using an RME Fireface UFX back then, and we identified the crash to be due to runing CopperLan software - more specificaly to the fact that it was generating Active Sensing MIDI messages. We have since run it through our RME and through a TC ImpactTwin without any trouble, as long as CopperLan was not lauched. Hope that helps!
I must say that since it works, we have been impressed with the scope of possibility it opens to us. But we have now switched to Mac OS and it doesnt work well when we run it in Virtual Box with rtpMIDI :
https://www.virtualbox.org/
Do you plan a release runnable under Mac OS? I am sure there is plenty of us out there desperate for it :) Or maybe you have tips to make it runn better with a virtual OS?

Pierre.

Pierre,
during development we did see issues with some MIDI-Interfaces.
I'm sure you already tried to toggle the option ';RX-Handshake'
in the Options/Config menu.
Can you share the brand of your MIDI Interface?
We're always looking at improving the software so that it is
usable for the remaining Prophet2000/2002s out there.
