Missing and hanging notes in E1 with MIDI mod...

[lubb]

Hello, friends,

I have just received my Emulator I Mark II with the JLCooper MIDI interface. The MIDI communication appears to be working, but some of the played notes are - as it seems randomly - either missing or hanging...

I wonder if somebody could help...

Thank you.

RESOLVED... !!!

"Pressing special function code "B 2" on the Emulator disables the synchronous scan loop, reducing the time spent in the loop to about 1 msec."

Now the E1 MIDI works  P E R F E C T L Y . . .

This is the trick. The only trouble is that you have to search it not in the E1 MIDI manual,  but in the Analog Voltage Interface manual...  

Thank you for reading.

Glad to hear you've got it sorted. Must be an interesting beast... congratulations :-)

The beast is just incredible, incredible, I grant you that...

As Dr.C. has remarked so wittily, it is a Panzer Tank... more than anything else...  with microscopic 128 KB of memory...

It is said there are only several of them still working...  This is why I am afraid to switch it ON too often... In the case of some fatal failure,  the beast is almost incurable nowadays, I imagine...

Thank you for your interest.

What a funny machine..! After booting MIDI works constantly well now (both receiving and transmitting) even without performing the "B2" operation (see above).

Make sense who may...
