Cubase artist 13 and windows 11

Cubase

Hi there everyone.

I hope someone can help. I’m in computer hell.

I use Cubase 13 Artist with Windows 11. I have a whole bunch of midi stuff, connected either through midi interfaces or via usb.

Until Saturday everything worked just fine. Suddenly, although windows 11 says every device is working perfectly, although the Korg uninstaller tells me I’m only using 10 midi ports ( although they are numbered 11-21, oddly enough) Cubase cannot see any of my midis inputs or outputs. They are all unmapped.

I’ve checked device manager. There’s no crap cluttering up the computer, no greyed out unused devices.

I’m at my wits end and any help would be appreciated.

Best wishes.

Paul

Hi,

Didn’t Windows update (silently) recently (on Saturday/Sunday) by any chance?

Please uninstall the KORG drivers so we can get you out of that midi-midi9 mess. Please do NOT use any tools that reorder the entries there – they just about always break MIDI.

Info from Korg saying to stop using their USB drivers:

Second, please join the Discord server at About Windows MIDI Services - Windows MIDI Services and then read the #start-here post the invite lands you on. That will bring you to the info about how to uninstall KORG drivers, and then repair the registry mess those tools tend to leave behind.
