Re: Losing MIDI connection

2002-11-27 by M2

If the midi led flashes when your controller is hooked up then the 
P2K is fine.  Did you use the midi cable that went from the XL to 
the P2K when you hooked up your controller?  Try that first.  If 
not, then you have to go thru the midi and master menu's and make 
sure the out put channels are set correctly(We need to double check 
those settings)

Let us know.................
