Yes you can downgrade the PE. The PG-200 works on my 3P here so your problems are odd. It seems that there are subtle timing differences in both the 3P's and the CPUs that I use. If the downgrade doesn't work I will send you another cpu that works well here on both of my 3Ps. This will involve pulling the PE apart but there is no soldering required.

What buffer settings did you end up with? I will put this on the web to help others.

Kind regards

Hi Florian,

Thanks for your answer but I think you misunderstood me. When I move the cut off's level, the resonance goes down to zero. There's no resonance at all after moving the cut off.
My juno 2 controled by the PE doesn't react like that.
I never had a synth that did that.

For the second point, if i don't go thru the synth's preset menus, the synth won't be controled at all.

But that's not the hardest point. The resonance is the big big problem.

Murray,
the PE update was difficult (had to change the buffers in midi-ox to get PE updated). After upgrading, the PE doesn't control the jx-3p anymore, it doesn't work :(
I've tested with the Juno 2 and it's ok.
I have tested my din to midi cable, it's ok.
What happened 1 2
Can I downgrade the PE?

best regards,
Fred
