Stage 2 and running MIDI status

Postby BruceV » 31 Jan 2017, 09:16

Hi, I just need a check on what I'm seeing. I have a MIDI monitor looking at the MIDI output from the Stage 2, and running status isn't present - every frame always has its leading byte (eg. 80H, 90H). It looks as if the keyboard doesn't apply running status. Is that correct or is there something I'm missing?

My monitor ALWAYS presents exactly the incoming bytes, of that I'm certain. There's no way that it could be contaminating the input data stream.

I actually prefer a data stream without RS because it makes it easier to merge multiple streams.

Thanks for any input. Cheers
BruceV

With "Running Status" maybe you mean the "Active Sense"? Then it is right, NS (and most/all Nord keyboards) don't generate that MIDI message at all.
