I just switched from using midi cables to the USB connection on my XS8. Now when I’m recording into Logic I get constant SysEx messages. I can filter them out in Logic but it is annoying to me that I can’t figure out how to stop this from transmitting on the Motif (and why would it be doing this anyway?). Anyone know how to stop these?

Re: Constant SysEx messages
The signal you are seeing is probably a MIDI Realtime Command known as “Active Sensing” (= 0FEH). As far as I know it cannot be turned off. For more information, see this thread .

Re: Constant SysEx messages
The Motif XS is likely sending FE (Active Sensing) and F8 (MIDI Clock)

Re: Constant SysEx messages
Thanks for the replies. I had turned off the midi clock out figuring that’s what it was at first. What’s interesting is that I did not have this when using midi cables, only since I went the USB route. As a matter of fact, I was using the mLan connection for a time and didn’t do it then either.
