For some reason, my USB connection has decided to go on strike. Everything was working fine and well up until recently and now it's just sucking on all kinds of levels.
I've tried to troubleshoot as much as possible, but when I look for the info (on the axe fx II wiki page) I used last time, I can't find what I am looking for.
Essentially, I imagine it's a problem with midi connection, but I'm guessing partial audio (will explain shortly) as well.
Windows XP SP3
Axe FX II (FW ver. 8.01)
Only thing different is that I've moved my PC to the other corner of the room, so I've effectively unplugged everything and the plugged it back in.
Firstly, I can't seem to connect via midi to either axe-edit or midi-ox. Wanted to update to 9.01 and ran in to this prolem. Re-installed the drivers - Nothing. Re-Installed drivers then rebooted straight after - Nothing. Checked midi in's/out's on axe fx - nothing looks out of the ordinary, but I reset them all to default anyway. I've checked in my DAW (cubase 5 if it matters) and I'm getting audio signal loud and clear, but when I run itunes (to listen to and play along to stuff), nothing...
I tried running searches here, the wiki page and just through google and have had no luck getting it to read any midi inputs...
Little Help??
P.s. any idea how I can stop the "windows trying to install drivers" thing popping up every time I power up the axe fx?? I managed it some how a while back and it was good, but now it's doing it again.
Perhaps fractal can devise an ACTUAL driver instead of a deamon loader which is a bit unreliable at best.
EDIT: Out of sheer frustration, I power cycled (again) and when the windows box asking for drivers etc, I decided to let it do it and see what would happen... All of a sudden, my midi is showing up as connected, it's working in midi-ox and in axe edit... Updating firmware now and will try other issues and report back.
Why should it be that you are told to just cancel these messages and "setup wizards", but actually running them seems to provide some headway... ??
