External MSC MIDI Triggering

[samsc]

Currently, devices are all M-Audio Midisport models Uno, 2x2, and 4x4.

At Richard's suggestion, I tried all kinds of different devices until the problem was gone. Also worked diligently with the drivers making sure the correct versions were installed.

what about non-maudio devices?

i suggested to you - you needed different manufacturers - so that they dont share the same drivers.

Some of the other devices I tried are:

Motu Micro Lite 5x5
Motu Fastlane
Emu XMIDI 2x2

They all worked when the driver was installed correctly.

I won't discount the possibility that part of the error was on the side of the PC running Medialon. However, I uninstalled, wiped the registry, and reinstalled the PC drivers. When I could see consistent MIDI data from a random MIDI device, I was relatively satisfied that the PC was not the issue.


I think bottom line is that USB to MIDI through a wire then MIDI to USB is just nuts anyway. Things are working now and reliable across many different MIDI devices so at least my issue is closed.

I wouldn't be surprised if people have this same problem in the future.
