Fantom XR

Post by mgsr70 »

I have a fantom XR. I have not used it in some time, about 7 years to be exact . I just plugged it back up yesterday and left all my connections and power on overnight. Well, when I came back to the XR today to initialize a performance to start creating it was frozen. I unplugged the midi cord going to my mio-10 interface. I saw an error message on the XR stating midi buffer full, press exit. Once I pressed exit, the XR started working again. I switched midi cords and plugged it back in. Frozen again with error message. Unplugged and Everything works fine. Does anyone have a clue as to how to fix this?

Works OK without the interface connected...
Sounds like your Midi interface is outputting Midi data.
If you have a PC, connect both the In and the Out on the Midi interface and look in MidiOx (use the View / Port Status to see if there are any lights on or flashing)

All the best

And what do I do if they are on and flashing?

And also, what you described trying isn’t very clear to me. Can you break it down in simpler terms with more specific step by step instructions.

You know. I think the problem MAY be that my midi keyboard was going into the midi interface with a midi cord AND USB midi.... Could that be what was fouling things up? My set up appears to working fine.... So far. 🤞🏾

If they are on and flashing then there is likely unexpected Midi data going to your Fan.
I would look for a loop and it looks like you have found it .
Great, all sorted
