 +Some thoughts: 
 +  * Configure the target device to transmit MIDI 
 +  * Move a control that transmits, or play a note 
 +  * Does MD log show a received message? 
 +  * If not, try a stand alone MIDI monitor program?  Does it show a message received? 
 +  * Do you have another device in your rig that indicates successful transmission?  Another sound module to sound a note? Etc?
  
 If you are having connection difficulty with a specific target, we recommend starting with the target device forums or support to see if other users have a similar issue and have found a solution.  MD MIDI connections have proven robust over more than a decade of maturation.  With the large number of unique MIDI devices available, it is difficult for us to troubleshoot individual unique configurations. If you are having connection difficulty with a specific target, we recommend starting with the target device forums or support to see if other users have a similar issue and have found a solution.  MD MIDI connections have proven robust over more than a decade of maturation.  With the large number of unique MIDI devices available, it is difficult for us to troubleshoot individual unique configurations.
