Curtis, wow, those were the exact instructions I needed. Now got back all my sounds and I'm a happy man again. But, I have removed the MJ device and am not sure if I shold allow it any nmore of my worries? Does it do this reset each time you plug it in? Once I plug it in and start useing it, do I have to reset this setting only once?
I am so busy that I can't spend time trying to fix things I know little about, so what do you think on going forward useing the MJ? Does it have any more tricks under its buttons?
