Roland um-one midi interface doesn't mount on MacBook Pro OS El Capitan 10.11. I've installed a driver from Roland but the um-one doesn't show up in the midi studio. I scan for new device, but the um-one doesn't show up anywhere.
The same um-one works fine on my old Mac-Book Pro, (I use it to record from a Roland TD-3 drum kit)
Any suggestions?
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11)
Contact the developers, it isn't an Apple product.
If you read my first post you'll see that this is clearly not a problem with the Roland interface. It works on my other MacBook Pro and on both iPads. For some reason the new MacBook Pro is not seeing it, i.e., the problem is most likely with the Apple product or the Apple OS (or my lack of understand of the Apple product).
Anyone else dealing with this? Any solutions?
I have this problem too but only since I updated to el capitain. The latest um-1 driver I can find is for 10.9. This product is getting very old but I don't particularly want to fork out for a new one as it was working fine.
The Roland UM-1 has been discontinued and it is likely the driver is not compatible with OSX 10.11. I would think your only option is to roll back to the last version of OSX that worked with it. You could contact Roland and ask if they will be updating the driver but I wouldn't count on it.
Thanks. That's what I figure although they provided a driver that worked for Yosemite - I'd therefore hoped it might work for El Capitain but given my um-1 has probably been in service now for over 10 years I realise it might be time to retire it soon as I can't forego all future updates forever. As it happens I found a m-audio midi interface in my bits and bobs that is working fine with el capitain. I can use it while I wait to see if Roland sort the problem. I gather there are a range of devices that are having issues with el Capitain so I might just hang onto the um-1 for a bit to see what happens.
Yes, there are some DACs that no longer work.
Roland have provided a driver that they say will work for 10.9, 10.10 and 10.11 for both the um-1 and um-1 mk2. (See http://www.roland.com/support/support_news/2876#midiif It may work with the um-1 mk2 but it definitely doesn't work with the um-1.
I don't own a UM-1 so I'm in the dark. They do say on the driver page it's for 10.11. It may not work on the point releases. You're not running the beta of 10.11.4? The betas have a tendency to break things. Usually the point release resolves it but not always.
Good Luck.
No. Thanks. Just running the regular el capitain download that came automatically in my updates. The driver doesn't even give any power to the um-1 through the usb port. It does seem strange but my guess is they designed the latest driver it for the um-1 mark 2 which presumably is very similar in software requirements to the um-1. However on this occasion it doesn't seem to work for the um-1. If anyone does get it working, can you please post here. Thx.
Wish I read this before I bought one đ Running on 10.12 and I have the same exact problem. It shows nothing in my midi setup as well.
