It's said the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results. Well, this MFC upgrade has definitely driven me over the edge...
I've had a bricked (Error 14) MFC now for two weeks. All attempts to upgrade it have ended in failure (we are seriously talking about over 150 attempts, at a minimum.) I've followed every thread, tried every random suggestion, switched to different PC's, different cables, used my TC Konnekt 24D, used the Axe USB, made sacrifices to the gods of MIDI and none of it has met with success. Yeah, I know -- I'm a bit obsessive about solving problems myself (I've done PC, studio and artist support and was always the one everyone else turned to when things went south), but this time I have to admit defeat.
So, my fellow FracHeads, please help a brother out. My most "successful" setup so far has been using MIDI-OX on a Dell 710m laptop, AxeFx as USB interface, powered by Cat 5. Using settings of 256/16/90/20 (size/buffers/buffer delay/F7 delay), it gets to 94/95% every time before Error 14. I can try it 20 time in a row, like clockwork with the Error 14. Speeding up/slowing down/tweaking every dang parameter has just gotten me Error 6 or earlier Error 14.
What I'd like to see is the exact settings that HAVE worked for people -- MIDI-OX size/buffers/buffer delay/F7 delay settings. All four, please, it doesn't help when someone just says 'xx worked for me' if I don't know which setting 'xx' refers to...
Thanks in advance,
TT
