Re: [LAU] no connection...

Hi Preston, Use a tool that allows for byte-wise display of incoming MIDI data, such as kmidimon. Connect that tool to Your Audigy MPU port and hit some keys on Your keyboard. Now You can see if there is MIDI data showing up at all. My suspicion: The MIDI keyboard sends NOTE ON/OFF data in running state mode, which means, if there is nothing happening apart from sending NOTE ON/OFF commands it leaves out the first byte (the status byte that actually contains the NOTE ON command) to save data. The MIDI data stream now consists of groups of two MIDI bytes only that in turns contain the note value and the volume value. NOTE OFF messages are note value + volume 0. You would have to "interrupt" the NOTE ON message data stream by triggering a different MIDI command, such as PORTAMENTO, foot switch etc. or reset the MIDI keyboard alltogether so that it will send one initiating MIDI ON status byte. This could then be received by the audigy and transmitted to Qsampler and the MIDI data stream would be "complete" again. I have got this issue all the time when using my MIDIfied electric organ.
