Help needed: No MIDI input on MFC - can't restore a backup

Patzag

Fractal Fanatic
I am not sure if I am facing a bug or an incorrect setting:

When trying to restore a syses dump to my MFC, the "Waiting for data" display does not change and no data seems to be arriving to the MFC.
Everything else seems OK. I can dump data perfectly but I can't seem to be able to restore.

I use Fractal Bot using the AxeFX as the midi interface.
I am using a functioning midi cable (apparently) :)
I have the USB adapter mode on.
Midi data from FractalBot is being sent.
Midi data shows as being received by the AxeFX (Midi In LED indicator functioning)
MFC otherwise working perfectly.

Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Are you powering the MFC with the CAT5 or the power supply?
If so, don't.
Disconnect CAT5, leave MIDI cable connected to MIDI IN (your are connected AXE MIDI OUT --> MFC MIDI IN, right?)
Power with MFC's wal-wart.

Thank you - I will try that.

In the meantime, I am reporting an actual bug here: If I plug the MIDI OUT of the Axe FX into the MIDI OUT of the MFC, the restore works without a glitch. :shock

I'm up and running, but that's totally weird. :)
