MIDI is functioning correctly, but it won't record

there are no other applications running so not sure whats going on. i just watched the video you posted and am even more frustrated now that i see its working for you.

If you are on a Mac, go to security preferences and then add MT Pro to your accessibility settings.

im on windows 10

Are you seeing incoming MIDI from MT Pro Virtual 1 port on any other MIDI enabled application?

i dont have any other midi enabled apps running

What version of MT Pro are you using. Could you please download the latest version? It seems from your video that you have an older version of MT Pro. I’d like to make sure we are a known state.

just downloaded the trial of the latest version and its doing the same thing… still wont record

Hi, lets try a few more things.

In the outgoing log instead of checking Incoming and Outgoing, also check the box labeled “MIDI OUT”.
Then repost the log file. From the log, it looks like output is happening but unclear to which port.

Also go to the CMD prompt and type

tasklist >out.txt

Then post the file named out.txt (which will probably be in your C:usersyourusername folder.

Thanks for this!. MIDI out looks fine.
The only suspect apps that might be talking to a MID port are:
Music.UI.exe
and
Chrome – If you are going to a web site that uses web MIDI, it can take over your local MIDI ports.

The first order of business is to get FL Studio to see MIDI IN using the debugger. Maybe try another Bome virtual port until you see MIDI in from the debugger. Have you discussed this issue with the FL people. Clearly we are sending MIDI.

Are you seeing incoming MIDI from MT Pro Virtual 1 port on any other MIDI enabled application?

frustrating. im not going to any websites that use midi. i dont know why midi isn’t showing in debugger.

Well here are the anomolies I see.

 

On your input list in FL Studio, most ports have a number before them but Bome’s MIDI Translator Virtual Port 1 does not. This looks odd to me. Try using Virtual Port 2 which has a number. (Set it to Virtual Port 2 in MT Pro as well.

Try turning off (unchecking) auto accept detected controller in FL Studio. If you do this and then uncheck then recheck enable on the controller, you might be preseted with a popup that asks for the MIDI channel and port number. This might fix the problem that I see on the next point below.

I find it odd that your input device doesn’t have a port number assignment box on in FL Studio and mine does. Can you expand the dialog box so it shows a port number? If so, make sure you have one created. Maybe you have a different version I have. Or maybe the step above will fix this.

Make sure Bome MIDI Translator is started before FL Studio. According to their web site, it only scans for devices when starting.

Here is a link to things I checked in FL Studio. I’m pretty sure the issue is somewhere there so you might want to check their support.

You can confirm that MT Pro is sending MIDI by trying to output to a different MIDI enabled application.

Please do all further testing on your new trial version of MT Pro until we get it working. The old version you have may have issues as I noticed the virtual port names are not currently what MT Pro supports. Try using short names for virtual port names which can be found in View->settings in Bome MIDI Translator.
