I was jamming with my band, and everything was going great, then mid-way through my synth stops outputting sound. It's a Novation X-Station. When I hit the keys, the LEDs light up indicating it's received the signal, but nothing comes out of the line out or headphone out jacks. I had my PODxt Live going into one of the input jacks. Is it possible the signal was too hot and fried something? I can't see that since this is how I always run my setup. I am really depressed over this. We have a show in 2 weeks, and I'd really prefer to not play my synth parts on guitar :(

Any ideas/suggestions? One of my bandmates said I might have blown a fuse? I don't know.

btw, just tried MIDI and at least that still works, but it won't do me any good live since I just use the built-in synth and don't have a laptop.

Is it possible that you somehow accidentally turned off local control?
What happens if you loop a midi cable from "out" to "in"?

hey, thanks for responding bk... turns out I'm actually an idiot and had the input/output monitor knob cranked full on the output side. not really sure how the logic on that works, but I have my sounds again!!!
