What Makes CbB MIDI Output Hang?

On a few rare occasions I get projects that immediately upon opening, lock up my MOTU micro express #1 output.

Deleting all tracks so there are no tracks does not fix it.  Deselecting or rerouting outputs in Preferences won't either.  Closing the defective project does release the MIDI output.

The constant #2 MIDI input is from an old Yamaha keyboard.  Don't know why it does that but I ignore it since I don't use it for input.

What MIDI mode are you using?   MME or UWP

Is the MOTU micro express plugged direct or via a USB hub .  If a hub, make sure it's powered.  Personally, I would only use direct, not any HUB (even powered).

Try a different USB port.

Also, do any of your projects have any SYSEX banks or data that gets sent upon open. Maybe these are overwhelming your MOTU.

Direct USB & MME.  This was a simple basic midi track, nuthin fancy.  Like I said, I deleted everything in the project so there was no tracks, vst's or vsti's, then saved and closed it, then reopened it.  So something got stuck under the hood.

It happens so seldom and now I can't find which project it happened to so maybe it was only a momentary glitch?
