Midi Disconnect

Post by DJMan32 »

not sure if this is only for me or everyone else however every live show with daslight I have had this issue. During the show and with my midi pads(I use sometimes as many as 6 midi pads) one pad will disconnect while keeping its light values and the only way to fix it is to unplug the pad and plug it in. As far as my trouble shooting goes, its not the port, cable, or pad so its something to do with maybe the different types of pads or multiple of the same pad.


using
akai mk2
novation mk3 mini
novation launch control

actively doing testing on finding the issue/ cause but just wanted to make the team aware

after more experimenting, it even does it with one midi controller, hardware manager shows usb connection stays connected.

Hallo,

Ich habe ähnliche Probleme, wenn ich zu viele USB Verbindungen brauche.
Irgendwann ist immer eine Grenze erreicht, bei der der letzte Befehl priorisiert wird und dafür ein anderer abgeschaltet wird.
Wenn möglich, dann Standard Midi Kabel verwenden.
Ich würde auf jeden Fall mal testen, ab welcher Anzahl von Geräten dieses Phänomen auftritt.

Gruß Klaus

Hello,

With too many device plug in a hub, it's probably a problem with the power supply of the hub.

Did you have the problem with only one MIDI device ?

I have all active hubs. With external power supply. But the capacity of these hubs is also limited, as we all know. With USB 2.0 less than with USB 3.0. If this capacity is exceeded, devices switch off, because the last selected always has priority.
