Checked all of these components, everything appears fine
MIDI Troubleshooting tests-
TEST CORE1: bought from Smash, so should be rtg
TEST CORE2: n/a
TEST CORE3: visually all looks alright
TEST CORE4: all check out
TEST CORE5: all check out
TEST CORE6: all good
TEST CORE7: ok
TEST CORE8: ok
TEST CORE9: ok
TEST CORE10: Hmm, so this wasn't expected... When I used my Lexicon Lambda as my MIDI interface the situation outlined in above messages occured. When using my Novation Remote (NOT a Remote SL, which is blacklisted) I received an endless series of upload requests as outlined in this section of the troubleshooting guide. However, I tried to trace this signal path and check for any accidental solder bridges etc and didn't find anything.
TEST IN1A: ok
TEST IN1B: ok
TEST IN2: ok
TEST IN3: led lights, can't get it to flicker when sending a series of midi messages, perhaps just not enough of an effect for me to notice
TEST IN4: led lights
TEST IN5: LED flickers ever so subtly
TEST IN6: LED stays lit no matter what!
TEST IN7: no voltage measured from the test, whether switch open or closed. I tested 2 different 6n138's as I had one from when I initially tried a year or so back to build a midibox sid using the standard modular pcb's (not a mb6582) and had similar issues with my core. The optocoupler ripped from there reacted the same way as the one I received with the kit.
TEST INOUT1: not receiving any data back into the input
TEST PC1: ok
TEST PC2: ok
Even trying w/ 2 octocouplers I received the same results. Is this just a case of 2 faulty optocouplers? I've seen the messages that have said "when all else fails, its the optocoupler" and I just sent in a Fatman only to find out the optocoupler was faulty!!!! OPTOCOUPLER! I WILL DESTROY YOU!!!!!!
:)
Yeh, is that what this all means?
