Hi,

Never have problems to introduce CF cards in my 2880. I have use several CF cards builders, and no problem.
Seems strange. Have you tryed to invert it ?

Here is the midi implementation chart for the 2880 :

MIDI Control Change Messages:
The 2880 can respond to specific Control Change messages. The following lists all of the 2880 parameters and their
corresponding CC#.
CC# Data Range 2880 Parameter
9 0 to 127 Clix level
20 0 to 127 Dry Out slider
21 0 to 127 Track 1 play/feedback slider
22 0 to 127 Track 2 play/feedback slider
23 0 to 127 Track 3 play/feedback slider
24 0 to 127 Track 4 play/feedback slider
25 0 to 127 Mix track play/feedback slider
26 0 to 127 Tempo slider
27 0 to 127 Dry Out pan
28 0 to 127 Track 1 pan
29 0 to 127 Track 2 pan
30 0 to 127 Track 3 pan
31 0 to 127 Track 4 pan
102 127 Push REC button
103 127 Push NEW button
104 127 Push PLAY button
105 127 Push TRACK SELECT button
106 127 Push EXT SYNC button
107 127 Push MIXDOWN button
108 127 Push STEREO button
109 127 Push REVERSE button
110 127 Push OCTAVE button
111 127 Push PUNCH-IN button
112 127 Push QUANTIZE button
124 0 Change to OMNI=OFF
125 0 Change to OMNI=ON
Please Note:
• There must be at least 300mS between each button push message.
• At power up the 2880 will always be in OMNI=OFF mode.This means that it will only obey Control Change
messages on the selected channel. The 2880 can however be switched to OMNI=ON mode by receipt of the
appropriate command on its selected channel. In OMNI=ON mode 2880 will respond to CONTROL CHANGE
MESSAGES (except OMNI=OFF) on any channel.
• Moving a fader or knob after receiving a CC message will overwrite the last CC message with the last fader or
knob movement.
MIDI Program Change Messages:
The 2880 also interprets certain Program Change messages as button pushes and mute/unmute commands. In
addition to accessing every button on the 2880 with Program Change, we have also added more functions not
present on the face of the 2880, such as mute/unmute of the tracks and direct selection of a track. A program
change message has one information byte, P0 (0 to 127), but this is usually presented to the user as being 1 to 128,
shown below as P1.
25

108 109 Mute/unmute Dry Out**
109 110 Mute/unmute clix level**
110 111 Mute/unmute all play tracks***
** The single channel mute/unmute action works as follows: If the channel’s level is greater than zero when the
command is received then the channel will be muted. If the channel’s level is zero when the command is
received then the level will be set either to that of 2880’s panel fader or to that of the last CC message (20..24),
depending on which was the last received.
*** When a mute/unmute all-play-tracks command is received all play tracks will be muted if ANY of them is greater
than zero. If ALL of them are zero then each will be set to fader or CC level.
