I apologize in advance if this is something that has been discussed here before - but I have been unable to find any discussion of it either here or elsewhere on the Internet.
I am trying to use QLab to send MSC commands to a Leviton Innovator (I have tried several, actually) via a E-MU XMIDI 1x1 Tab (USB to MIDI) interface. The manuals of both QLab and the Innovator, of course, claim that this is possible. And from the Mac and QLab side, it seems to work fine. I set the cue, trigger it, and the XMIDI cable lights up, clearly receiving a signal. I have even installed a MIDI Monitor, which also shows outgoing MIDI signals.
However, absolutely nothing happens on the Innovator.
I have, of course, checked and rechecked the connections. Tried them in the reverse order. Double checked the channel IDs and mode. Triple checked. Restarted everything. Even (as I mentioned) tried it on three different light boards at two different venues. Absolutely nothing.
So. Either I am making a very basic mistake (possible, since this is new to me) or the Innovator does not really support MSC!
My question is: Has anyone made this sort of setup work with an Innovator? If so, could you share the secret with me!? Or does anyone know for sure that it does NOT work? (I would be fine, at this point, with that answer as well!)
Thank you very much!
