V-synth Xt USB Midi not detecting!!

19 May 2009, 14:02
Hi Guys , i just got a vsynth xt , now i installed the drivers and i can use the storage mode fine but cant figure out how to get the usb to stream midi.
Im running Cubase sx3 on Windows Xp sp2 and cubase doesnt show me the v-synths midi port at all , i tried uninstalling and reinstalling but no luck...

On the other hand i have a macbook pro running Logic 8 and everything works fine , storage mode , usb midi etc ... oh well there is one issue here where i have the main outs of the v-synth going into Input 1-2 of my Motu 828mk3 but for some strange reason in Logic if i select Input 1-2 as the Input source no sounds at all however if i select Input 3-4 it works heh how strange is that????

Some help please guys

Thanks

Can you please explain what you did, I seem to have the same problem?

Just got my XT and installed the USB drivers. I also can't see the USB midi connection in Cubase.
Storage through USB seems to work though.

Thanks,
Peter.

hey Peter,

Here is what i did , and i figured out the solution from rolandus.com @ their Knowledge Base , so i did exactly what they said , try it out!!!!

The problem is probably caused by a 10 USB driver limitation in Windows XP/2000.

Click on "Start" and choose "Run," then type in "cmd" as the command line. Click "OK" and a DOS prompt will open. Type the following commands one line at a time, hitting enter after each:


set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
start devmgmt.msc


The Device Manager will now open up, so click on the View menu and choose "Show Hidden Devices."

Look through the device manager carefully and note that there are a lot of drivers with a kind of translucent colored icon next to them. These are what are called "ghosting" or otherwise nonpresent drivers your computer is remembering in case you were to ever use the device again later. They can also be drivers that do system functions and are hidden by default, or partially installed or corrupted driver install attempts, all sorts of
things really.

Look under these categories in particular:

+Human Interface Devices
+Other Devices
+Sound, video and game controllers
+Universal serial bus controllers

Obviously you would want to uninstall any driver that shouldn't be there, but pay particular attention to things like these:

USB Composite Device
Composite USB Device
USB Audio Device
USB Human Interface Device
USB Device
Unknown Device
*3rd party USB drivers no longer in use or installed multiple times. *Edirol drivers you are having problems installing.

Delete these or any driver duplicates and then restart your computer. After you have completed these instructions your Edirol driver should be reinstalled to end the procedure. MIDI and audio ports will then be visible in your software.
