I decided to connect my Microfreak via Midi to Minifreak V running on a Windows 11 laptop in order to take advantage of the knobs they have in common. The whole thing went really smoothly and it was very easy to control Minifreak V with the Microfreak.
While messing about with the two things, I changed the preset on the Microfreak and to my surprise the sound on the Minifreak V also changed. A few more changes on the MicroF resulted in changes on MiniF V. After several changes, MiniF V got stuck on one sound and the changes of preset on the MicroF no longer had any effect on the MiniF V.
A restart of both Freaks resulted in changes on the MicroF changing sounds on the MiniF again, until once again, after a few changes, the MiniF got stuck on one sound.
What on Earth is going on?
