2 Midi Messages Breaking Moog?

[falloutsoldier]

I have had a moog break on me twice in the last month one a slim phatty an the other a voyager RME

they happened in two separate studios, about 3 weeks into purchase

the only thing that I can think that is similarity in these events was there was more than one midi signal flying about in the studio

like for example a midi keyboard plugged in sending out midi, then a USB mpc Pad, there were a few peeps in the studio an I think two things might have been pressed at the same time.... or a friend was adjust the pitch bend on one midi keyboard while I played some notes on another

now it seems mad to me that transmitting a midi signal could have such a profound effect on something but it seems to have happened at the same time both times.

its not my studio setup either as the second time was when I took my Voyager to my friends studio

the 1st time the slim phatty just made a weird noise like a cat dying an then just stopped

then a voyager RME just started kicking out a single tone, like a hanging note, whichever is the last note that is pressed, which just didnt stop

surely its not too much of an unusual thing to have a few midi signals flying about in a big-ish studio setup?

am I just really unlucky and making up midi conspiracy stories or has anyone else heard of such a thing? Ive never had a problem with other synths & cant find anything else on the internet saying anything of the sort

I just exchanged an got my new RME and Im scared shitless something it going to happen again with this one. its kinda ruined my enjoyment of the product

anyone?

Check up next time if there's a hanging note on the RME whether you can stop the hanging note by pressing the MASTER button. When the note stops then your problem has nothing to do with the RME.

A Midi loop? Or cutting the midi signal flow physical or logical after a MIDI note-on was send and before the note-off was transmitted?

Never had something like this in the last 7 years with my Voyager here.
If there is really a strange bug, then you should try to recreate or record the exact MIDI events that caused this. So some MIDI freaks could see what is going on in the MIDI stream. And I bet, that it is something wrong with the data going into the Voyager, rather then the Voyager itself.

Maybe you had two sending MIDI sources on the very same MIDI channel? If you press and hold the same note (number) on two sources, how can the receiving MIDI unit know which following note-off is shutting of which (or both?) of the two held notes? You can fool many synths by doing such a crazy setting.
