HX One not responding to MIDI Note On commands

I have an XSonic Airstep connected to the HX One via a CME WIDI Jack. Everything is working great, except I can't get the HX One to respond to Note On commands, specifically the looper's record/play/overdub function via Note C [-1]. MIDI CC commands all work fine, but I'd like to use this particular Note On function, as it works slightly differently than the MIDI CC implementation (at least according to the manual) with record/overdub/play all on the same button (vs just record/overdub). The Airstep is programmed with MIDI Note# (rather than note name), but after looking up a conversion chart, I have confirmed the MIDI note name being sent with a MIDI monitoring program on my Macbook with the Airstep connected. I've tried C1/C2/C3/C4, with velocity 0/127/etc, nothing seems to work. Any ideas here? Am I just being dense?

 

EDIT: Forgot to mention I'm on latest firmware 3.71. I also have MIDI Thru disabled, as it was causing the WIDI Jack to spam inbound messages and totally killed all inbound MIDI.

The HX One MIDI capabilities are limited to the implementation described in the HX One manual. If that does not specify the ability to handle Note On commands as you desire then there is no workaround.

It does specify Note On commands in the manual. For the command I'm attempting to send, it's listed in the manual as Note C [-1] with a little blurb about Yamaha's "middle C" implementation vs other manufacturers, which is why I was trying multiple octaves of C. I can't get any of their listed Note On commands to work, only CC.

 

I have a ticket open with Line 6 (yet to respond - probably due to weekend), but was wondering if anyone has run into this yet. I also ran into a problem with MIDI Thru causing inbound commands to be spammed by the CME WIDI Jack, which I'm wondering if that is a new bug in their latest MIDI fixes (which did pertain to MIDI thru). Point being, I'm wondering if this is a new bug that needs squashing in firmware, or if I'm just doing something wrong. I have confirmed with a MIDI monitor that my controller is sending the proper notes, but the HX One is not responding. MIDI CC and PC work just fine.
