Make sure that the Quadraverb is correctly connected to the computer, and turned on, before starting the program. In addition, make sure that the Quadraverb has MIDI system exclusive on and MIDI thru off. WARNING: There is a problem with the Quadraverb series MIDI system exclusive data communications which in very rare cases, can cause the Quadraverb to lock up if there are communication problems. Switching the Quadraverb off and on will not fix the problem. The only way to resolve the problem is to press the program and bypass buttons down as the Quadraverb is turned on, and to hold them down until the unit displays the edit buffer patch. This will initialize all programs and settings to their factory defaults. It is recommended that you back up your programs to disk using the File. Get Patch Bank command in case this problem should occur. The latest version of this software can be downloaded from 'http://www.cyweb.com/~karl/midi'.
