Can someone please help this idiot. I don't know what or how I did this, but I have completely lost my entire MIDI set-up. I use Digital Performer with a MOTU 2408 audio interface and a MOTU MTP/AV midi interface. For years everything worked perfectly. The only thing that bothered me was the fact that I had to open a Performer file and "arm" a midi track to hear my midi 'boxes' (JV-880, M3r, SP-700) via the keyboard (DX-7 as a controller). I wanted to be able to play without having to open Performer every time. so tonight I opened the "Clockworks" software that works with the MOTU MIDI Timepiece and started re-routing patches. I figured I could always go back to a"saved" configuration. Wrong. There was no saved config. I tired everything. It got worse. Looking at the event list after opening and playing in a file, I saw ONE SINGLE-NOTE-STRIKE generate 8 events!! The polyphony is gone...everything is monophonic. Worst of all, the Timepiece doesn't even show up as a device in the Clockworks window, But, it is there in my OMS/Free Midi set-up window. I am desperate. Can anyone help me with this mess?

you can changes setups in your MTP AV...there are loads and you need a default setup. That should help. I never got to grips with free midi, I always stuck to just OMS or Logic so I'm no expert if free midi is your midi front end. I think clockworks just plays around with the midi interface doesn't it, so a new 'patch' in the MTPAV should help...good luck

On the front panel of the MTP, turn the Window knob clockwise until you come to the screen that says "GLOBAL HARDWARE SETUP." Now turn the Cursor knob until you get to the screen that says "RESET ALL DATA - DANGER - <E>" Press the Enter button. This will reset your MTP to its factory defaults.

Trash your ClockWorks configuration file and the ClockWorks Prefs file. Launch your FreeMIDI Config file, check that it's correct, and then quit FreeMIDI.

Now you should be able to set up your MTP via ClockWorks as you did when you first got it.

And by the way, what you want to do is not impossible. But you should have tried it on one of the other seven defaults setups, not on your day-to-day working one. I know -- it's easy to be wise after the event :-)

Kind regards.
