Thanks for sharing your ideas. I did make sure they were both using the same
channel, and I did a diagnostic MIDI loop-back with the Kurzweil to find
that indeed it can't transmit/receive its own MIDI signals. I haven't set up
the diagnostic loop on the Delta1010 yet, but that is a good idea. As of
now, I have no reason to believe the Delta 1010 MIDI is not working, and I
can tell for sure that there is something wrong with the Kurzweil.
I'll try the MIDI loop test on the Delta1010 soon- thanks again for the
suggestion.
