Minilogue does not work with any software

Post by vlocatelli »

I've tried everything. Installed and uninstalled the drivers multiple times, changed the USB cable, changed the USB port, but it simply doesn't work.

When I install the USB MIDI Driver, it tells me it was succesful. But no other software can connect to the Minilogue. When I open the Sound Librarian, it shows a pop up with the message "minilogue is not connected" (of course it is). In Ableton Live it doesn't exchange any MIDI information nor is detected.

Can anyone help me? I'm using Windows 10. All specs are fine and all drivers was downloaded from the Korg site.

Thank you in advance

You have me wondering now. I don't believe I have tried since the latest update. I wonder if anyone else has.

I'm having the same problem. I wonder if a Windows 10 automatic update broke the Minilogue drivers. Korg, heads up!

What about global options in minilogue itself? Are they OK? The midi driver is for USB only, if you use 5din cables, there is no need for driver. In Librarian is the same. there is an option somewhere to use Korg drivers or not. Also there is a driver utility installed with USB drivers. Check it.

Solved

After reading the post from demonp, I went into the Configure Korg Driver Setup Utility that was installed with the latest Korg USB MIDI driver for Win10. In that utility, I had to check the box for Auto Startup and then there's a button for Start. Interestingly, it was only at that point where it offered to install the actual USB MIDI driver. So I let it do that (took a bit for it to pop up). Then once that was done, I had to come back to the Configure Kong Driver Setup Utility and click Start button again. Now when I went back to the Minilogue Librarian, and made sure in the Preferences that it *wasn't* set to Manual MIDI Port select, it finally works! :) Hope that helps all here
