Dear people,
I've just recently bought a MX61BU and I love it. However, when I connect my old but great Roland JV1080 via MIDI and the DAW (Cubase AI), the MX61 rhythm patters trigger channels 1 and 2 in the JV1080 (with the resulting cacophony).
I've checked the JV1080 MIDI parameters, and everything looks OK. Even more strange, When I connect the JV1080 using a standard MIDI cable (not an USB interface and the DAW), and change the MX61 MIDI mode to MIDI (not USB), the rhythm patterns don't trigger the Roland's channels 1 and 2.
Any ideas? If you need additional information, please, let me know.
Thanks a lot!

Just got a tip from reading here the docs. I connected the additional midi interface (a Roland) to a USB port in my computer. I think that I should connect it to the USB port in the MX and routing it correctly in Cubase. I'll try tonight. Any advice will be welcomed 🙂
Thanks again!

Please realize that the MIDI Track of the DAW re-channelized data. So this maybe your issue if you are attempting to send multiple MIDI CHANNELS into Cubase simultaneously you have to do one of two things:
1) Use the Input Transformer to reject all but one channel reaching any Track (Cubase Pro, Only)
2) Create just one MIDI Track with the channel Out Option Set to “Any”. (Cubase AI) “ANY” allows each incoming MIDI Channel to Thru back on the channel it arrived on. You can split the info to separate tracks later using the MIDI function “Dissolve Parts”. It only tracks one MIDI Track to record 16 channels of data... the data remains separate because every MIDI Note-on and Controller event generated by your Synth has a channel attached to it.
You split the data to separated channels for the convenience of editing it.

Hey, BadMister, thanks a lot, that's quite probably the issue. Thanks!

BadMister, PROBLEM SOLVED!
Following your wise guidance, I got my JV1080 not to be triggered by the MX rhythm patterns. So a BIG BIG thanks from here.
PS: any ideas to get the same results with Cubase AI virtual instruments? They also are being triggered by the MX rhythm patters, but I didn't find the way to set the channel out to "any"
PS2: Thanks again!
