MIDI dropouts Micro Lite - Windows 11 & iCue
Posted: Mon Mar 11, 2024 4:49 pm
Hey all
Just wanted to share a bug I discovered (although I don't think it's the fault of MOTU). I installed Ableton 12 recently and noticed my micro lite was no longer sending or recieving MIDI. The device was listed in Ableton but no MIDI data was being sent to my hardware. After a week of troubleshooting, I finally worked out the cause. It's the buggy iCue software that Corsair forces us to use with their products. It recently updated (around the same time I installed Ableton 12) and the latest version is blocking MIDI data (I have absolutely no idea why). Anyway, if you close iCue, your MIIDI data will be back.
Hope this saves someone from 2 weeks of head scratching
