Re: midi note??? loop changes on Repeater? Very weird HELP!!!!
Title:
On the surface this seems like it should work.
Assuming the GR30 is doing midi OUT and not merging or THRU.
It's possible that some device is sending out program changes that you don't
realize.
You can probably solve this by doing the merging/splitting in a different
way.
But first you should methodically try to isolate the problem.
i.e. eliminate things until the problem goes away, then form a hypothesis
about what unit or pair of units is behaving differently than you thought.
Test with just those units.
Once you have the problem isolated you can reconfigure to avoid it.
Does your midi splitter have merging also?
I solve a similar config with a philip rees midi merger (2 ins, 2 merged
outs, and 2 thrus - 1 for each in). I'm using a keyboard and a drum machine
- the drum machine gets the keyboard out, and downstream devices get the
merged keyboard and drum machine outs.
Is the DR202 configurable for Out, Thru, or Both (merged)?

Very strange problem..
After re-cabling my setup for a NEW-IMPROVED system, (But addmittedly
rather complex arrangement that may or may-not have a midi loop in it..explanation
follows). I have a VERY WEIRD phenomena. The "loop select" changes as I
play guitar (GR30 guitar synth)... So there I am making a groovy loop and
suddenly I notice the display change loops to seemingly random loops. They
dont actually play, just cue them up.
Now this midi routing DOES mean that the midi out from the Guitar
synth is getting to the repeater, but how can it change loops just by playing
the guitar??? I would understand if I was changing patches on the synth
but NOT NOTES!!!
OK I know none of you midi geniui can help without further in depth
info so i have made a diagram of my rig at
its not as complicated as it looks,
It is basically a Electrix heavy looping rig (repeater/filter factory/mofx)
almost seperated from...
a roland GR30 guitar synth midi'ed up to a Korg MS2000 rack synth
(THRU a Boss drummachine). There is a kinda loop here (if you see the diagram)
because I want the drummachine to send clock to BOTH the git-synth AND the
Korg synth (for both their in-built arpegiators). however I am ALSO using
the midi note from the git synth to drive the korg... I KNOW I KNOW I could
have Drummachine>GR30>Korg synth ... but the korg doesnt seem to GET
the clock-outa the GR30... Cant find soft midi thru on it...
HOWEVER... (sorry this is getting obtuse) IT DOES WORK... the electrix
rack synchs nicely to the drummachine and the git synth plays at same speed
and so does the Korg... luverly jubbly... BUT THE F***ING LOOP NUMBERS CHANGE
ON THE REPEATER!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone enjoy a challenge, spot the problem...
Please you guys, I know you're the BEST
