G4/GeeThree Stealthport/MOTU Serial MIDIExpress XT - PROBLEMS!!!!

[VanEdge]

i'm having a hell of a time with this.
no one (GeeThree or MOTU) seem to know what my system problem is...

i can troubleshoot OMS' new studio set up to find my MOTU, and I can set up all my synths fine, but I am unable to send any MIDI notes to them for playback.. I can send MIDI into the G4 and record it in PT LE, but I can't hear anything played back.

FreeMidi doesn't detect anything on my modem port at all, and it's driving me bananas. I have been using this MIDI interface successfully for 2 years on my PC and have ensured all my cables have been hooked up properly.

I'd reaaaallly appreciate any input on this.
I've gone over everything a hundred times with no change.

Switch Mac/PC button or use Mac port

i'm using motu midi express xt for pc and it dos'nt work properly on my system either. locks my computer up? motu & PT don't mix well!!!! lots of people having the same problem.

damn. are you serious???
the thing seems to be working fine with respect to sending data from the synths to the XT and G4, but i can't get my synths to make any sound.
i've gone over everything a hundred times.
my one last hope is that there's something wrong with my serial cable that came with the XT.
i just don't know anymore. this is beyond frustrating....
i know it's not a protools problem. i can record midi notes into a pt track, but no software can play back any notes on my synths. not PT, max, or the OMS studio test mode.

oh, the xt works fine on my PC, though.
this is a G4 modem port (i'm using a geethree stealthport)problem/

that's not it. i've tried that. i've even disconnected the PC connection completely.

I have the same configuration (G4/Stealth/XT). At me all works without problems already more one year. I think your problem in any hardware malfunction.

HALLELUIAH!!!!

geethree sent me a new stealthport and i was able to configure the whole studio in about 10 minutes!!

man, i was losing my mind for over 2 weeks. i thought i was doing something wrong, but i wasn't.
