Kevin, try this: Give a good smack to the side of your rack, cycle the power, and see if it helps any.

I guess that little bit of a jostle must have done just enough to get them working each time. -Hans At 20:21 22/07/2002, you wrote: > I disconnected the EDP from midi, powered up and so far this is what has >happened: > >(Loop 4 zips by three times and then the version # 1.1 shows) x 16 and >counting.
