Music Feather Wing - MIDI mode glitchy

Post by ddx314 »

I am using a recently purchased Music Feather Wing (with line level audio adapter) wired to an Adafeather Adalogger M0. As I am using the Music Feather in MIDI mode, I soldered the jumper on the back of the board... it works great! But when I come back ~6 hours later, I often hear glitchy-ness or odd midi noises. I saw there's a note about a similar issue here https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-mus ... leshooting but as I understand it, this is a note for *non-midi* playback whereas my application is for midi. I have searched the tech forums here for similar issues but haven't seen anything specific to Midi. Other than powering the Music Feather Wing via 3V and GND from the Adalogger and using the MIDI TX pin, I have no other pins connected on the Music Feather Wing. Wondering if perhaps any of the other pins on the Music Feather Wing should be tied high or low? Or other suggestions?

When you say you hear odd MIDI noises, do you mean there are random MIDI messages being sent?
