Dear all,
Strange thing:
I connected my LAPC via MIDI cable (din sub 15 to MIDI in out din5) to my external general MIDI device.
So I wanted to turn on my pc but nothing happened. I checked everything and… when I disconnect the MIDI cable the pc turns on normally. When I connect the MIDI cable to the lapc during operations the pc turns immediately off …
I then checked the MIDI cable with my soundscape (while lapc keeping installed) and no problem. MIDI all working.
What the heck is going on?? Seems like an electricity issue maybe grounding ?
Do you have any ideas? I can’t imagine that it works with a mcb1 only. That would at least not explain the above behavior won’t it.
