I found that the mixer volume needs to be set as by default its set to top volume. I had similar issue with Slim Phatty. thought it was my slim but it turns out that all i really needed to do was go to mixer on the 5000 and turn down the track in the sequnce if not it will send message to bosst volume to top volume

see my experience here... it wasnt the slim (ignore the os update entry)

Hey Xparis001
is this something that we can maybe have more control over in the 5000 os update? maybe a setting in the midi menu to ignore midi volume messages if we want? or maybe allow outboard gear to control its own volume somehow?
