MIDI Device doesn’t show up
•
Are you in DAW mode?
⁃
Check on the Settings page from Home. You need to be in Controller
mode to use the 4 USB A ports.
•
Is your MIDI device USB “bus” powered?
⁃
If it is, you may be exceeding the 1 amp that Regen can supply (shared)
to all its USB ports. You should try using a powered USB hub.
•
Is your MIDI device self-powered?
⁃
Is the MIDI device’s power supply plugged in, switched on, and
working?
•
Is your MIDI device class-compliant.
⁃
Most USB-2.0 or later devices are, but it’s worth checking. If not, it may
not be compatible with Regen.
•
Are you drawing too much current?
⁃
Regen can handle 1 amp total on its 4 USB A ports. More than this, and
all 4 USB ports are shutdown as a precaution against faulty USB
hardware. Remove your USB devices one by one until you find the
culprit, however you’ll, have to restart Regen each time, because the
over-current switch latches off. If there is a genuine reason for that
accessory to draw a lot of power — for example, it has a lot of LEDs, it
generates audio, etc. — then you will have to use a USB powered hub
between Regen and the accessory. If you don’t think the accessory
should draw more than 1 amp of current, then it may be faulty and
need replacing.
