Troubleshooting

The driver cannot be installed.

• Is the USB cable connected correctly?

Check the USB cable connection. 

Disconnect the USB cable, then connect it again.

Windows

• Is the USB function enabled on your computer?

When you connect the MOTIF-RACK to the computer for the first time, if 

the “Add New Hardware Wizard” does not appear, the USB function on 

the computer may be disabled. Perform the following steps. 

1

Double-click “System” in the Control Panel to open the System 

Properties window.

2

Double-click the “Device Manager” tab and make sure that no “!” or 

“x” marks appear at “Universal serial bus controller” or “USB Root 

Hub.” If you see an “!” or “x” mark, the USB controller is disabled. For 

more information, refer to the owner’s manual of your computer.

Windows

• Is any unknown device registered?

If driver installation fails, the MOTIF-RACK will be marked as an 

“Unknown device,” and you will not be able to install the driver. Delete the 

“Unknown device” by following the steps below.

1

Double-click “System” in the Control Panel to open the System 

Properties window.

2

Double-click the “Device Manager” tab. With the “View devices by 

type” check box checked, look for “Other devices.”

3

If you find “Other devices,” double-click it to extend the tree to look 

for “Unknown device.” If one appears, select it and click the [Remove] 

button.

4

Remove the USB cable from the MOTIF-RACK, and make the 

connection again.

5

Install the driver again. 

When controlling the MOTIF-RACK from your 
computer via USB, the MOTIF-RACK does not 
operate correctly or no sound is heard.

• Did you install the driver?
• Is the USB cable connected correctly? 
• Are the volume settings of the tone generator, playback device, and 

application program set to the appropriate levels?

• Have you selected an appropriate port in the sequence software?
• Check whether the MIDI IN/OUT setting in the Utility mode corresponds to 

the terminal/cable actually used (USB or MIDI) (see MOTIF-RACK Owner’s 
Manual page 61).

Playback response is delayed.

• Does your computer satisfy the system requirements? 
• Is any other application or device driver running?

Macintosh 

Turn off virtual memory.

Disable AppleTalk.

Cannot suspend or resume the computer 
correctly.

• Do not suspend the computer while the MIDI application is running.
• If you are using Windows 2000, you may not be able to suspend/resume 

normally, depending on the particular environment (USB Host Controller, 
etc.). Even so, simply disconnecting and connecting the USB cable will allow 
you to use the MOTIF-RACK functions again.

How can I delete or re-install the driver?

3

Use the MS-DOS prompt or Explorer to delete the following three 

files.
