Hi
Have built a custom keyboard using Arduino Mega 2560
I can get it working fine on my desktop using Hairless MIDI Seriel Bridge and LoopMIDI into Ableton Live 10 Suite, so far so good
But on my laptop (which is where I need it for LIve performances) with the same software (Live 10 Suite ) and same settings in LoopMIDI and Hairless, Hairless does not seem to find the MIDI ports, I get these errors and Hairless cuts out after a few seconds of tapping the keyboard:
Failed to open MIDI out port: RtMidiOut::openPort: error creating Windows MM MIDI output port.
Failed to open MIDI in port: RtMidiIn::openPort: error creating Windows MM MIDI input port.
Wondering why this is the case and what the fix is? maybe all the laptop MIDI ports are full? But LoopMIDI should create a virtual MIDI port, just that Hairless cant open them
Maybe a driver issue, but Ive looked into that (FTDI drivers i think are there but I do get the occasional message in Hairless that FTDI drivers dont seem to be installed)
Do i need something like Copperlan as a workaround?
thanks!
