MIDI not working in Logic with RME FireFace 802

Question

Hi,

I have an RME FireFace 802. It's working fine in Logic in terms of audio, but doesn't show up as a MIDI device when creating an external MIDI track.

I suspect it isn't a driver issue, as it shows up and works fine in Ableton Live.

I've tried reinstalling the RME driver software etc. (using latest software from the RME site) to no avail.

OS is 10.11.6 on a Macbook Air, interface connected via USB.

Other MIDI interfaces work without issue in Logic: I also have an 8 port M-Audio Midisport that shows up and works without issue.

Can anyone suggest anything to get this working? Can you force Logic to rescan for MIDI drivers?

Or do I have to do anything else in Logic to enable the MIDI functionality of this device?

Any advice appreciated.

Many thanks.

In the Utilities/Audio-MIDI Setup application.... does the RME 802's MIDI Interface show up under MIDI devices?

If so, It should appear in Logic.

If not it might be worthwhile to delete Logic's preferences and control surface preference file.
