Hi there,
I just bought one of the new Rocktron Replitone MP guitar rack preamp units which has MIDI I/O's for use with the software preset manager via a PC.....
So, I went out and got a Midiman MidiSport 2X2 USD/Midi inteface to use with My PC and the Replitone, etc...
I'm running WIN XP btw,....and I just can't seem to get any MIDI data flowing in either direction......
It's a pretty simple set up, just the regular 2 x MIDI I/O into the Midisport and then USB cable to PC. The Rocktron preset manager software is actually functioning OK, coz I can move the slider controls fine, and also load patch presets from my hard drive....
I made sure to install the latest Midiman drivers for the MidiSport, and everything reads OK in the PC device manager, etc.....
BUT, I just can't seem to get any 'communication' between the Replitone and PC......
Strange thing is.....that if I go into Direct X diagnostic - music mode, and run a TEST on the USB port in question, which kinda "manually" opens it.....then MIDI data will flow in both directions between the two units, but as soon as I stop that - NOTHING happens again.....
Anyone got any ideas how to FIX this problemo????
or what's a going on here, I've been trying to sort it out for the last 4-5 days now, and I've kinda run out of ideas
Any advice would be gratefully appreciated,
cheers,
KEV
