Problems recognising Edirol UM1 MIDI interface
Our music department at school has 3 macs. One runs 10.3 and recognises the UM1 - MIDI works fine ... if only I can remember which to switch on first.
I took EVERYTHING to the next machine (running 10.2) - interface, cables and keyboard. Nothing. No lights or anything. We restarted, reintalled the drivers and all that sort of stuff. I even cleared out all the devices in Audio MIDI Setup and reinstalled the drivers. Now it won't even recognise the interface (system profiler just says Vendor Specific usb device).
I tried the M-Audio Oxygen 8 - no problems.
I even tried a new account, but nothing works. We are at a loss. I am the nearest thiing to a "Mac Expert" at school - Our IT manager just says things like "We said you should have bought PCs" (I wonder what he says when the PCs crash? I don't think he knows Unix!).
Strange thing is all the machines have worked with the interfaces before. They have just stopped over the summer break. Is there some magic sequence for settting up MIDI that I should know about?
We are running Cubase SE, but I doubt that makes a difference. We aren't getting that far!
Thanks ... but we need these machines running tomorrow for an Open day "see how good we are"!!!!!
