      In my H9 Max, I made a few presets and in the app, went to Pedal, MIDI Settings, Program change receive map.  With my H9 in omni mode, it heard midi commands to select programs on my amp and applied the right effect.  Worked great.  For a couple of days. 

      Now I can’t get it work.  Moreover, when I go to Settings, Reset Settings the mappings do not get cleared.  Is this correct behavior?  The text in the control app indicates “…reset all… and MIDI settings.”

      I tried resetting the pedal too by holding tap and center button while powering up.

      I need tips on troubleshooting.

      For example, I have a USB-midi adapter and a Windows PC.  Could someone recommend a simple utility I could use to check my H9’s midi connectivity?

      The Reset Settings function in H9 Control resets the app's settings.  It doesn't reset the pedal's settings.  

      But you also described restarting the pedal while holding the right footswitch and the big, black wheel.  This should restore the H9 to its factory settings.  So, this should clear out any changes you made to the MIDI program change receive map.

      Sure, on Windows you can use MIDI Ox to check and make sure that your H9 is actually being sent the MIDI program change messages that you think it's being sent.  And you can also use it to send your H9 particular program change messages and check your mappings.

      Alternatively, Max MSP can also be used for this, but I wouldn't describe that as a simple utility.
