NDLR internal clock vs CTRL cc #72

[House de Kris]

Sounds like you've got a reasonably good handle on things in your situation. You're dealing with things many people have had to contend with over the decades. I, too, have gear that listens in omni mode. I use it as an advantage as a means to easily switch focus on different MIDI channels. I'm pretty sure your E5k Ultra can be set to multi mode, and specific channels can be individually disabled. That's how I use my E6400 Ultra. I think the only time I use omni mode on it is when I'm trying to find a patch to use in a song.

Anyway, in a well designed usage of MIDI channel scheme, I'd be surprised if there were any 'errant MIDI signals' floating around. I guess that's the part I'm still having difficulty seeing.

Good luck!
