Ignore MIDI active sense signal

There is not currently a way for the Response MIDI Gateway or the Gio to ignore that message.  I have heard of other users adding a MIDI filter inline that strips out that Active Sensing message.  MIDI Solutions is a brand that makes many products that interact with MIDI, and they may have a product that does this.

May I ask how the active sense message is affecting your Gio?

I had a feeling this would be the case. Thanks for letting me know.

I know an active sense message shouldn’t affect anything because it’s a really small piece of information but it seems to create a lag on the response of the desk.

Also, I am just freelance prod lx for the show, I am currently asking the show chief for more information about the issue to get a clearer picture of what’s going on.

Hello,

i don't know what Keyboard there is in use but i found this:

Maybe on your Keyboard there is an option to turn this function of... if possible.

Hi All, we're going to talk a look at some options both from the Eos side and from the MIDI Gateway side. But it does look like filter option would be a good add here. More soon.

We were able to make a change in Eos v3.1.1 to ignore MIDI Active Sense (0xFE) and Beat Clock (0xF8) messages by default (they can be re-instated if a user needs them).  

Eos v3.1.1 is currently available in Open Beta here:  Eos Family Software v3.1.1 Build 97 is Now Available!
