Hi.  Grateful for some help.

When I have my MOX connected to Logic, opening a new audio track and arming the record button causes the lowest note of my MOX 6 to play repeatedly at a constant speed.

What could be causing this?

Thanks.

Eka

Check your MIDI in and out channel assignments in Logic.

Check your metronome assignments to make sure it is not sending over MIDI.

How is your MOX connected to your computer? MIDI cable or USB? If you’re using a USB connection, make sure you’re using only MOX-1 (port-1) for your MIDI input in Logic.

The following article, although written for Cubase, might help:

Basic MIDI Recording

Hope that helps.

When buttons on the front panel are playing notes, this is a clear indication that the REMOTE CONTROL messages are mixed on to the same port with the sound engine.

PORT 1 is for music data only (note-ons, controllers, tempo)
PORT 2 is for REMOTE CONTROL messages only.

you can imagine that REMOTE CONTROL messages are the same MIDI messages you know, only re-tasked to do something else.
For a remote control surface you need SWITCHES to turn things On and Off. Well Note-On events make perfect switches, so on the REMOTE CONTROL Port a MIDI NOTE-ON for a key might activate a Switch.
You also need controls that go from minimum-to-maximum so other controllers on the REMOTE PORT send values to change parameters that go 0-127.
You need to keep these REMOTE CONTROL messages discreet (isolated on their own port and keep them separate

I think meatballfulton has made a very good guess that it might be a metronome - typically assigned to a NOTE. But any way it is a MIDI assignment issue, to be sure. Either a Remote Control message misplaced or a metronome misrouted…
