Take a laptop running Midiox(PC) or Snoize(OSX) and plug it in to the output of the HWCE2. If there is a cable plugged into the Input of the HWCE2, remove it for now.RaymondList wrote:I've rewired my Allen (51 year old discreet transistor) to generate MIDI, using the MIDIBoutique HWCE2. It is feeding a MOTU ULTRALite MK4, then to my MAC OS laptop. I was close to being finished when last night I saw the sale on Hauptwerk. I had my cart filled and was ready to push the button to buy when I hesitated, thinking I'd better not spend anymore money till I'm sure it is working. Glad I did wait. I completed the wiring and hooked everything up. Now the strangeness begins. I did the auto-detect for the keyboards and pedalboard and all was well. When I tried to play a note, when I press the key down, the MOTU shows a MIDI message, but the keyboard on the PC screen does not show movement. Let the key up on the organ and the key goes down on the screen. The key movement is reversed between the actual key and the Hauptwerk key. They all function like that. Let up on key, note turns on, press key, note turns off. All keys do this. Anyone have an idea?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Run Midiox and see what MIDI messages you are getting. If you are receiving a MIDI OFF message when you press the key and a MIDI ON message when you let up on the key, there is a problem in the HWCE2 or the wiring is using closed contacts that open when you press down.
