MIDI notes controlling transport

Post by aculver »

Hi All

All of a sudden, certain MIDI notes are controlling the DP Transport instead of playing. For example, F below middle C starts recording, and the D below that pauses the transport. I have not knowingly changed any settings nor can I find any settings to undo this behavior.

Anybody know what's going on?

Disabling the transport Master did the trick.

I will take your advice and learn how these masters work.

Thank you both.
