thanks
controller keyboard midi out >>> pc midi in
pc midi out >>> 505 midi in
What software are you using? You may need to do some setting up in your sequencer.
Do you want the 505 responding on all 16 channels?
Is the controller keyboard a sound source also? or just a controller?

your midi interface has only 1 midi in 1 midi out?? I'd suggest getting another interface.. one of those 65$ midiman interfaces should do the trick. 2 ins 2 outs. That way you won't have to fukk with midi thru.
The mc505 is also a tough instrument to do control with midi. Each part has to be set to "external". and you gotta watch out for random controller errors. We have it set up in a protools studio and at random times the 505 will play when we hit play on protools.
It would also help if you disabled the d-beam controller. it transmits midi info and can inadvertantly mess with your midi.
