Not sure I'm a guru but I use a lot of external MIDI gear (am installing new equipment and rearranging all my MIDI I/O in my rack as I speak).

I don't know anything about your UR 22 (I looked it up, however) or your old Digitech vocalist (again had to get manual) - but over the years I have had lots of Digitech gear that had with MIDI I/O. I still run a Digitech Studio 400 in my rack connected to my Signature 284 - a rack stereo EL84 guitar amp).

Back on point, besides just fiddling with channels (and it could be that simple - but unlikely at this point, we'll come back to that after we look at the following)

1. You are running the most current Yamaha (aka Steinberg) USB driver? (sounds like tech support guy doesn't it, sorry)


2. Do you have ANY other external MIDI gear that DOES work properly when driven from Reaper over the UR22 MIDI I/O?

2.a If yes then I'm sure the next two items are moot, but...

2.b If not

- are you sure (no offense) you have UR22 MIDI OUT connected to Digitech MIDI IN?

- have you tired swapping the MIDI cable from UR22 to Digitech?

- Can you see the Digitech MIDI OUTPUT in Reaper (over the UR22 in port)? Supposedly the Digitech front panel sends certain key strokes e.g., "key" - over MIDI

- just trying to confirm UR22 is 100%


If you have verified CABLE, connections and have set internal Digitech channel to "N" (page 31 of manual) and Reaper output for a track to the same channel "N" then … I'm stumped - I'll have to go have a scotch and ponder a while

Hope something here helped
