I recently received an MPC4000 via UPS. Upon first receiving it, there was no sound from the outputs at all (headphone or main outs). I disassembled it completely, reseated everything and that fixed it. The FX card, however, seems to be bad. It shows as installed, but no FX work.
Upon further testing, everything else was working fine. However, midi output B started acting funky. My synth (DSI mopho) on output B started acting crazy, changing programs and hanging notes. I hit the midi panic button and that stopped it. That was the last time the port worked.
I connected the midi port to my PC and monitored its traffic with midi OX. It does not send note on/off or any usual midi traffic. If you mash a bunch of notes at once, it will pass some odd unrelated midi control messages, but that's it. All the other 3 output ports work fine.
I reinstalled the OS, re-initialized settings, etc and nothing changed the behavior. Thinking that the FX card could be the culprit, i disassembled everything again and removed the card completely. The issue is still there.
Anyone had a similar issue? I am pretty stuck here.
