Hi Robert
I think I just figured it out. In the midi input, for some reason it was automatically also selecting virtual controller for me along with the midi omni and that is what was causing it. I deselected virtual controller and only kept midi omni on and it works fine now. Again, not sure why that would cause it so a reason would be great to know but I have it figured for now I was afraid of wasting tonight lol
Thanks for your prompt response.
