The only things I can tell you is that through midi cables to my soundcard the device outputs a midi clock and some sysex messages, and I never was able to send any cc message to it. I used a program called Kmidimon to monitor. Through USB no sign of life, neither kmidimod neither amidi (but I'm not sure which options to use). If you point me in the right direction I'm willing to do any further testing needed. Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
