Erratic MIDI Problems and New Cables
Having trouble with erratic MIDI or difficulty with your computer recognizing your MIDI interface? Try a different cable! As unlikely as it sounds, we have seen this be the problem on more than a few occasions. It is generally worth trying this simple step before moving on to more drastic measures…Interesting Statistic: Around 75% of all problems our service department encounters are in some way related to cabling! As we’ve mentioned here before, SCSI is very sensitive to cabling, but audio, MIDI, power and other cables can cause problems. We always try different cables as one of our first trouble-shooting steps.
