I have no idea what’s going on here.
My Octatrack will not recognize any midi in signal whatsoeverfrom the Launchpad Pro, but it will accept midi in from my Fates (norns clone) on the same midi channel.
My regular midi setup is:
-Launchpad Pro din midi OUT to Octatrack Midi IN
-Ot midi OUT to Medsua Midi IN
-Medusa Midi THRU to Circuit Mono Station Midi IN
-Circuit Mono Station THRU to Model:Cycles Midi IN
And i alternate between that and this setup by swapping out midi in from Norns/Fates Midi OUT Cable to Launchpad Midi OUT Cable
-Norns/Fates usb midi OUT to Octatrack Midi IN
-Ot midi OUT to Medsua Midi IN
-Medusa Midi THRU to Circuit Mono Station Midi IN
-Circuit Mono Station THRU to Model:Cycles Midi IN
i have 4 thru tracks for audio (which is irrelevant) and i use Midi Tracks 1, 2, & 3 for:
-Medusa Midi Ch 16
-Mono Station Osc A & Osc B: Ch. 14 & 15 respectively
-and recently, for the Model:Cycles, i set the main midi in to ch.13
I also experimented with routing the Orca script in Norns through the Octatrack and into 6 separate midi tracks on the Model:Cycles, so i could control each of the 6 machines/tracks on the device with a separate midi channel in Orca, each set to midi channels 9 - 14, which may be the problem here, although i set everything back to where it was before
So i normally just have Octatrack “AUTO Ch” set to “1” and either the LPP or the Norns is set to send midi notes out to Ch.1, then i route that midi to whichever midi track i want to control according to which midi ch. out/synth i want it to go to. The trig channels are always set to “OFF” (except for when i tried that Orca to 6 separate channels on Model:Cycles, which worked fine)
Now, the Octatrack refuses to recognize midi in from the Launchpad Pro. It’s weird because it still accepts midi in from the Norns/Fates (ch.1). AND, the launchpad properly sends midi out to my other devices if i connect them directly via midi cable. So the problem isn’t with the launchpad when used with other devices, and it’s not with the Octatrack when used with other devices. it’s only with these two devices together.
I use the Usb20Midi cable to run Norns usb midi to the Ot, which works perfectly, and a regular midi cable with a dongle for the LPP to OT.
I tried different midi channels, different cables, different dongles, connecting to all my synths directly, which worked. And if the Norns is still recognized on midi channel 1 incoming midi, why wouldn’t the exact same settings be applicable to the LPP on midi channel 1 Incoming midi like it always did before?
I’m pretty sure I didn’t mess with any other midi settings, but it seems like that wouldn’t matter anyway, because i know that the OT is still receiving midi in from my other sequencer (the norns/fates) on the same channel. Did I break something? I have no idea what this could be. Any help would be greatly appreciated
