Connection THRU output kills MIDI
Posted: Mon Dec 12, 2016 6:41 am
using Midiplus mini engine with this GM2 V3.

I have a stereo 1/8 jack to L/R female 1/4 into the Midiplus for the output using just Left (or right?).
What I really want to do is to route this to an A/B switch for the Midi sounds with a THRU connection so I can switch between them.
Without using the THRU, both my acoustic and electric work with the GM2 and the tone engine perfect. (running on AA, have not tried 9v)
Any time I add a cable between THRU to my A/B switch OR even another channel of an amp, the GM2 stops sending valid MIDI and I hear just random noise coming out the tone engine. When I try to just listen to the THRU, there is some popping and static noise there too.

I saw another thread just below this that appears to be similar.
I'll try hooking up a 9v supply vs. the AA battery, but in my application it's really nice to not need AC power for the wall wart.
It seems to me this should be a valid way to hook up the rig, but maybe I've missed something and another topology of connections is recommended for what I'm trying to do. Any help is appreciated.
