Getting no sound when you to use the Monomachine to sequence a Blofeld desktop?
Solution
The third CC parameter knob on the Monomachine MIDI tracks are set by default to control volume. Turn that up, and you will get sound from the Blofeld.
There’s a known bug / issue with the Monomachine where it seems to send a volume cc message (not sure what the exact message is) with a value of 0 the first time a sequenced midi note is triggered, and you end up with a silent synth. It doesn’t happen with all my gear, eg it’s never happened with my Peak, but it happens consistently with my SE-02.
Power cycling the synth also fixes it, as after the first sequenced note is sent the MM doesn’t seem to do it again.
