no midi input port? FFS

Post by dBizzitry » Wed Nov 11, 2020 3:44 pm

Running Ableton Live 9 on a Windows10 laptop

i can plug in a friggin' Casio keyboard through USB-B to A and have instant midi input (no settings needed)

but my Korg SV2? Forgetabout it.

In the linkMIDI preferences tab, there is no MIDI input port available--just output.

WHY?

The real beast...

i re-ran the Configure Korg driver for the thousandth time (changed nothing), and relaunched Ableton and i have input ports again.

There's a reason why people like to buy class compliant devices rather than ones requiring proprietary drivers (hello, Korg and Roland).
