MIDI routing to >2 destinations breaks sysex transfer
#2
I can confirm that sysex to more than one destination is *generally* hosed.
You seem to be able to successfully send to multiple destinations if the destinations are one each of USB, PC, ports 1-5, and ports 6-10

I was using a Korg DL8000R dump all which is 18468 bytes
In 1 -> USB A, PC (3), and port 1 was successful.

In 1 -> DIN ports 5,6 consistently dropped 1 byte.
In 1 -> DIN ports 5 and 7 dropped many many bytes.

and so on.  

Basically there either needs to be better/more buffering of sysex inside the MRCC or users have to restrict sysex transfers to a 1 to 1 mapping for ports (in general).

Yes, I know that sending sysex to multiple ports is most likely not what you want to do in 99.9% of the cases, but if you happened to have more than 1 of the same device and wanted to send sysex to them both, this would be a legitimate use case.  In any scenario, you would expect the sysex buffer to be transferred cleanly no matter how many destinations were selected.
