Bill,

Are you sure you selected the correct midi channel on the VR? I havn't touched mine in years, but I believe it's channel 2 that must be selected. If it's not responding, and the midi channel is properly selected, there's a good chance one of the chips has went bad. The chips are dirt cheap, about $12 to $20, and a good technician can replace the faulty one in less than 20 minutes.

Good Luck,

Gary
