[SOLVED] Glitch or bug on Serato Sratch Live 2.5 when Enable MIDI Output LIghting on CDJ-400's

Thought I should point out I had recently installed SSL 2.5 and had MIDI assigned my CDJ-400's that's when I notice i was getting MIDI/Keyboard aka piano response from my computer! So I then go too MIDI in SETUP and unchecked Enable MIDI Output Lighting did the trick!! Figured too give you a heads up!! On the Pioneer CDJ-400 MIDI/HID configurations 3 MIDI buttons BUBBLE/JET - TRANS/ROLL - WAH/WAH that's available too assign.

Commented in Serato's forum as well

Thanks DJ TooHypE, yes this is a bug with Windows computers.

We are still looking into a fix, so at this stage I would recommend turning down the volume on your laptop if you want to get rid of that annoying piano :)[/quote]

Thanks em hhmm didn't think bout turning down the Volume duh =P ha ha lol

Is this a CDJ-400 firmware issue?? possibly? or something wit MIDI/HID conflicts? =? taking a guess right here lol ha

It appears it could happen with any MIDI Controller that with the right MIDI notes being sent. For some reason the MIDI output lighting feature triggers something on your computer call the Microsoft GS wavetable synth. For example, I experienced it with an Akai LPD8.

Alternatively you can disable the MIDI output lighting feature in the setup screen to prevent it happening.

Strange bug eh! Your CDJ is not the issue though, the firmware will be fine and the CDJ will be most likely operating as expected.

Yeah, this is certainly not a function of the CDJ, but rather the fact it is sending MIDI signal and then SSL is passing that MIDI signal along for other purposes. Hopefully they'll solve it or you'll just have to keep the MIDI volume turned down in your Windows sound control. ;)
