828 MKII and MCU

Post by midiot »

I cannot seem to get my 828MKII to respond to a Mackie Control Universal via the 828 MIDI I/O using DP 4.61 The MCU responds to commands coming from but I don't seem to be having any luck sending to. I see the MIDI LED in and out flash on the 828 and test setup in audio MIDI setup does not show activity from MCU. It will run flawlessly with one of my MTP/AV's so I know cabling and the MCU are working but why not thru 828••™s MIDI?
Has anyone else gotten this to work, am I retarted (don't answer that)???
I am aware that this should be in hardware, but there are more grazers in here that might respond.

Do you have the latest firmware from Mackie? V2.1.2 - download it from the Mackies website.

Unit was already running 2.1.2, it seems to be loosing connection between the 828 and Audio/MIDI setup as test setup does not receive MIDI info but 828 shows activity via the in LED. Works with other USB interfaces MTP/AV, M-Audio 2x2, and thru the MIDI ports of an Oxygen 8.

Thank you the response, I love this place for just that reason.
