Hi everyone! I noticed many of you couldn't find the tool, so I've updated it in a guide here: www.audiomentor.com/audioproduction/daw-unable-detect-midi-controller-windows/ I've updated the tutorial on my website, and I hope it helps you. Let me know if you were successful in solving your MIDI not detected problems!

Man, this used to work, but the new KORG USB-MIDI DRIVER doesn't have any way for me to change my Devices. The 'Device List' button is permanently greyed out. Any advice? Thanks for the video.

@@mellowords You probably already figured it out by now, but for people that come long in the future: there's a button towards the bottom right of the device driver list, that says "Option". If you click that, there's a checkbox to only allow deleting Korg drivers. It's enabled by default - which is why the other drivers are greyed out. If you uncheck this box, all the drivers will be available and can be removed.

Reuben, you deserve a round of applause and THANKS!!! I have been having issues for weeks and this is exactly why. How in the world all these major companies selling controllers don’t know this is dumbfounding.

i got a traktor kontrol s2 and also want it as a midi kontrol for fl studio, yet in midi mode not all knobs respond, do you know any solution to this? thanks

You saved my lower back there! :D Thanks for this great and concise video!

I was worried a vintage Yamaha CBX-K2 would not work on my modern PC with the adapter. I tried this and not only did it work perfectly, but it also stopped errors ocurring with other MIDI equipment I use and I was able to uninstall duplicate instances of MIDI that had been installed by me trying to make this work by plugging in different USB sockets. Thanks a lot! Regards from Peru!

Thank you so much. This is EXACTLY what I was looking for - just got a new SQ-1 and no matter where I looked, I couldn't for the life of me figure out why Ableton could not detect it. All the other setup video skipped past the detection state - luckily I was able to stumble across your video and found that it was the 11th driver installed. Thanks again!

Please help me . My korg sv 1 driver have been installed already and was working in my daw(ableton) all of a sudden one day when i opened my daw my keyboard was not working . Why? What to do now ?

Thank you. You have done a great service to the community.

Hey I cannot get my midi device detected on my computer I've used the korg midi driver but still it's not working....the moment I bought it, it's working, but now it's not detected can you help me with that..

What about m-audio keystation mini 32 mk3 bcz i have some problem sometime its work sometime not work especially with smartphone. Once more its also have problem with connection by pc using windows 10 64bit pc recognise if m-audio is plug in into pc and from daw or piano software in my pc its syncronize when i touch the key on m-audio keystation but there is no sound if i click with my mouse into the piano software its sound properly.

Thanks Reuben, you really saved the day. Uninstall utility is now telling me my Korg driver is corrupted, but hey, it works. One thing of note: I did see some MIDI drivers beyond the 10th spot that are working fine so I'm not sure if Windows 10 will only allow 10 drivers. I can't believe something like this is a hassle. It feels like I'm trying to configure some rare hardware on a win98 machine. The year 2023 and major software / hardware manufacturers don't believe in plug and play

Hi...i have midistudio2 keyboard and i cant find drivers for it...kindly help

Back in november i got an alesis q49 cause it was cheap and i really wanted a long piano, sadly i gave up my small mpkmini v2 to buy this and now almost a half year later i have so many hours spent trying to fix it cause nothing is working, im finally getting rid of it soon but before i do does anyone have any suggestions on what i should do?

thanks for your great video Reuben...what if our midi driver installed on 10-19 ?! that is my problem since last windows update! (1903 update)

friend can you help me? My Korg midi controller is in position 11, so none of my DAWs recognize it; I want to uninstall some of the 10 midi inputs that are occupied, but all the selection is disabled, therefore I cannot select any to delete it. Can you help me with that? Thanks a lot.

It did help! Thank you so much!

Hi, My Launchpad Pro MK3 is not even showing up as an option in the devices in control panel of window 10 and is not appearing in Abelton live lite 10. Do you know a way I can fix this? I have tried it on 2 different computers and they share the same problem.

Exactly. I did this and now my audio interface MIDI is completely dead through which I was using my "no drivers"/"plug and play" keyboard, and I dunno how to revive it so I'm ganna have to do a system restore to get it back or hope to get it back. So missleading the title is. And the whole explanation.

Ruslan Sirota, I _loved_ your PC joke there! And here is one of my own "So much for Plug and Play, eh!". Just _wait_ for the electronic music jokes on that one! But why only up to 10 MIDI ports (drivers) on a PC? Does that also apply to Windows 7.0 (all versions.) And yet Apple Macs have no such limitations. But what if you installed Windows 7.0 (for example) on an Intel-based Mac? Would you run into the same problems as with a proper PC I wonder? Anyway, thanks for reading.
