[ddots-l] Re: Strange MIDI problem

Strange MIDI problemI'm not familiar with using faders on modules yet. I just 
got an e-mu command station that has faders/knobs to control different 
functions in the sound, but if I had to guess, it does sound like a midi 
channel issue...that's if the faders can be assigned separately.

  Guys, 
          I have an old Pevey PC1600X which is a box with 16 MIDI faders.  For 
some reason, when I move fader 1, I get no MIDI data sent to SONAR.  I have 
enough eye sight to know the following:

  1.  when I move fader 1, the appropriate MIDI IN light glows on my MIDI 
interface just the way it does when I throw all the other faders.

  2.  I get controler events in the event view when I throw all the other 
faders. 
  3.  I get audible changes where appropriate when I throw all the other faders 
except 1. 
  4.  I can see the indicator on the Pevey move when I throw fader 1.  I'm not 
inclined to think the fader is broken.  

          I used to remember a MIDI matrix in old versions of Cakewalk.  Is it 
possible that somehow I'm not sending on channel 1?  What makes me think this 
is that when I set my MIDI  IN port to port 3, channel 1, I'm not able to 
record with any of my faders.  I've closed and reopened Sonar several times, 
turned my MIDI interface on and off with no luck.  

  Any help? 
  Kevin
