I am trying to set up my MFC-101 with MFC-Edit as I need to start using it and I have completely revamped my Axe FX II XL setup with changes made over the last year. The 101 works just fine with the Axe FX but when I try using MFC-Edit I have a persistent Name Timeout error. I had programmed it many times before back a couple of years ago so it has worked historically many times. I have been through the list of solutions provided by MFC-Edit including trying a different version of every cable including my USBs and even 2 different USB - MIDI interfaces, a MOTU fast lane and an M Audio unit. I Axe FX MFC port is set to Fastlink (I don't understand that as I am using MIDI cables to connect to my MacBook but sure, whatever) USB adapter mode is On, Realtime SYSEX is set to None.
I was going to double check my drivers but suddenly can't get Fractal Bot to open (I recently migrated to Big Sur) but I am certain that my drivers had been installed and were up to date before when I used it.
Perhaps it's a Mac issue, but again I had everything set up previously so I assume that still communicates with the 101.
I have gone through the entire checklist, I believe I understand everything, and yet can't resolve the problem. Which means I can't use MFC Edit at all. And I have dozens of presets, some pretty complicated, and don't want to spend days and days trying to program everything manually through the MFC-101. Does anyone have any idea at all about what I might be missing?
Since I want to revamp nearly everything if need be I would even reset the MFC-101 to factory specs if that might solve the issue. But since I can't even load files onto it or dump from the 101 to Edit, I'm out of luck and kind of at the end of my rope. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
