Topic: MIDI over MADI with ADI-648

I'm trying to send MIDI via MADI from electronic drum with Octamic XTC to ADI-648
and from ADI via DIN MIDI out to UCX MIDI in.

UCX doesn't show any MIDI activity, Octamic starts flashing ALL I and ALL o when I connect the e-drum.

XTC is set MIDI over MADI DIN in.

So the question is that does ADI-648 support the kind of scenario that I'm trying to build?

Which 648 is that? That should work, of course. I suspect a wrong setting in the XTC, not sending the MIDI data to the MADI port.

As in original or MK-II?  What is the difference anyways - just curious (and does the MK-II actually indicate it is a MK-II somewhere, or is it just the different colored faceplate and handles that differentiate it?).

cool

The MADI Remote button did not exist in the old version. Behavior is therefore slightly different.

Its Revision 2.

I managed to make MIDI connection by changing XTC unit with a longer MIDI cable.
The settings are the same in both XTCs.

I'm glad that it works now and the procedure is as straight forward as it seems.
I need to investigate what I did wrong at first, because I'm almost certain that I tried all the possibilities of settings at first.

I have stage rack with two XTCs and a Ferrofish A-16 mkII as AD/DA.
FOH rack has ADI-648 mk II and UCX.
