GT/22 4.6.3 AF3 MK2 FW17.01RC
I bought some new MIDI cables yesterday and after installing, there was no change in behavior. Last night I changed my settings on my GT22, turning off Songs, and leaving Scenes turned on. This time my chosen presets came in without behaving as if each Scene was a Preset. I worked my way through the first five presets with no odd behavior, but when I hit the sixth preset, it showed the correct information for a brief moment, then the screen on my GT22 changed to showing I was on Preset 41. My AF3 MK2 continued to show that I was on the sixth preset. I again clicked the Presets button, and chose Preset 16, which showed on the main screen of my GT22 correctly for a moment, then it quickly changed to Preset 295, while showing Preset 36 on my AF3. While I was on Preset "295" (on the GT22), it displayed on Scene 8 of preset 36 on the AF3. For the first time, I tried changing scenes using my A knob on my AF3. When I changed to scene 7, my GT22 changed it's displayed info to reflect Preset 294. This continued for each manual scene change using the A knob on the front panel of my AF3.
This morning I was again looking through the MMGT Editor (4.6.1) to see if I could find something that might help. Well, I thought I did. I thought shutting off the bidirectional MIDI might help, and when I unchecked that box, there was a moment where it seemed to behave correctly. That must have been a pipe-dream. After Ron clarified the need for Bidirectional MIDI, I re-checked the box for Bidirectional MIDI and many of the issues I was experiencing resolved.
Bidirectional MIDI is required (whether using 2 separate 5-pin MIDI cables or one 7-pin MIDI cable) so the GT22 is synced with the AxeFx3.
Thanks to everyone that may have contributed ideas or just read to see if they might help.
Cheers,
Lee
