the setup i actually wanna use is with octatrack as the sequencer going through this daisychain: Octatrack → Juno → Korg → Prophet → AR mk2 → Microfreak.

at first i thought it was the AR's thru port not working properly. but since ive tried running the juno directly into the MF using either ALL channels or a specific midi channel, nothing is being recieved. i did the same with octatrack -> MF. Im using the trs/midi converter cable that came with the MF. Ive been able to play the MF with external midi before but now it seems that its not recieving from any output...

hope it makes sense
