Hello Community,

I was having some fun with the Command Station XL7 hooked up with Ableton Live. Anyway, the fun abruptly stopped. The issue was no more midi in to the EMU. I checked everything, the fault is in the EMU. When I run the diagnostic cycle I get the error message, "Midi loopback test midi port failed". So I have some sort of issue with the midi "; in" port. I have done the reset on the machine but still the same error. Everything else is fine.

Does anyone have any idea on how one could fix this, or what the error means?

Thanks so much!!
