Okay... excuse the lame title, but what is basically going on is when record and monitor is activated on the midi track and i play a note on the keyboard (controller), the motif recieves what seems hundreds of midi signals for the key i press and I get a midi buffer full message on the motif.
For my connections, I followed the diagrams in a few manuals... from the midi controller (Roland A-37) I have the midi in/out going to the FireFace 800 midi in/out respectively. I also have the midi thru of the Roland going to the midi in of the Yamaha Motif (the audio out of the motif is working just fine). I attached a screen shot of Cubase as its messing up... you can see a midi message is being sent and recieved, but those meters are going crazy and its nothing but horrible noise being made. For the midi track, I have the input as "fireface 800 midi" and Ive also tried "all midi"... the output of the track is "motif rack-fireface 800 midi". Ive tried a few combinations, with no luck. And if tried deactivating and activating midi-thru in the preferences menu. It seems obvious a loop has been created somewhere, but I cant figure out how to fix it. Id like to have the keyboard setup with midi going into it so I can control/edit the CC's... or assign buttons/controls thru cubase.
I am not new with Cubase at all, however I am new using midi-controllers. Please correct me if I am wrong with any steps, routing, facts/assumptions, or connections... and Id greatly appreciate any help offered.
Thanks everyone-Dave
