When I first got Cross & U-Mix Control oro I had many problems trying to get it set up so that my PC could 'see' the MIDI controller.

Sometimes this took up to 60 minutes to do.

After I downloaded the newest verson of the U-Mix Control Pro program (the one that displays as the volume control in the task bar) this became better but it isn't really fixed.

I understand that it should work like this:

1. Switch on PC.
2. Power on buttton on back of MIDI o USB
3. Plug in U-Mix Control Pro USB.
4. Open Cross program.
5. Ready to start!

However this doesn't always work. I can plug in the MIDI controller & when I check the U-Mix Control Pro program it is greyed out & says 'Device Unplugged' even though it is plugged in & powered up.

Thanks!

related to Windows setup not Cross

What part of the Windows setup needs to be addressed?

Do you have any information anywhere on how this can be fixed?

Thanks in advance.

Try the following:

- Switch on computer
- Start Cross
- Switch on the U-Mix Control Pro

Works for me everytime. If it does not for you I fear UncleVibes is right: seems to be a computer related problem. Where? Well, seems that there is trouble a the USB port/controller/whatever.

A small detail that won't change your life, no need to switch on the controller before plugging it to the computer.
Do it the other way, that's more logical: plug then switch.

Ok will do but is there any info in here about USB settings?

Thanks! D
