Subject: Chroma Polaris not responding to midi
From: paul@...

Hello
I’ve got a beautiful fully restored Chroma Polaris. I’ve been re-wiring my studio space and in the process a weird quirk has occurred with a few of my keyboards. I’m under the impression that some unexpected midi command or dump was sent from the midi interfaces causing confusion in a few of the synths. So far the effected ones have come back to regular operation after reinitializing them. It’s an unfortunate pain, but no real damage per se. I haven’t had this happen before so I’m just sorting it out. I can play the Polaris directly just fine, and it’s nicely operational and in tune. A tech did a complete calibration on it. How do I reset it but retain the tuning and other work the tech did? Reloading the sounds won’t be a problem, but I would love to reset whatever needs to be reset to get it reacting to midi properly again. Maybe someone could mention what the default settings are so I can check against mine. It appears right, using base ch 1, and it’s on it’s own port of the midi interface so any midi data coming through those cables is just for the Polaris. It was working fine top to bottom before whatever happened while redoing the setup. Any input on getting rid of my polaris’s Midi confusion would be welcome.
