MIDI conflict with Zero SL MkII

Post by dave_house » Sun Aug 28, 2011 10:58 pm

Hi all,

I have a weird problem with my Zero SL MkII. Whenever I use certain MIDI CC numbers via other controllers, it freaks out. Specifically, I'm using an FCB1010 foot pedal on MIDI channel 5 to send CC messages. All's fine until I use CC 42 or 47. Even simply assigning these in MIDI Map mode causes the SL MkII to switch off most of the Channel On/Off and Arm indicator lights. These controls will still work on the SL MkII, but I have to hit them to toggle them back to life.

I'm assuming there's some kind of conflict between MIDI messages going on, but I'm not hot on control surfaces having always just used straight MIDI in the past. Why would it be that those particular numbers are causing such a random problem?

I'm trying to change the MIDI channel number for the FCB1010 to see if that helps but programming this thing is a bitch...

Cheers!

UPDATE: switching the FCB1010 to Channel 6 made no difference
