Still multiple midi controller with 15

Cubase
,
1

In Cubase 15 each MIDI controller is displayed three times in the midi remote tab. This is going on since a few versions. Well, with 14 it was two times. Will it be fixed at any time or do we get some more with every version of Cubase?

Hi,

Are you on Mac or Windows?

Are these real hardware with real MIDI Ports? Or are they using any kind virtual MIDI Port?

Hi,

Could you please double-check, how do the disabled/inactive devices look like? What kind of MIDI In/Out ports do they use?

That recently has starting happening with me - not sure what triggered it. You can click the triangle in the top right of midi remote and remove it but it reappears later.

It’s the Midiports of the devices as it should be. There are all the same. The duplicates beeing disabled.
As I was checking, I noticed that all my mappings are gone now. I saved them as global and somehow they got overwritten. Seems no way to restore them. This is really annoying!!

I can’t find a way to save a mapping on my harddisc and make a copy for safety. I can save a mapping but it appears only in cubase and can easily get overwritten. THis happened a few times now :(((((((

Hi,

I think we are discussing the same issue here.

Nothing is swapped there. They’re just duplicates that appear somehow. When I remove them, the reappear.

I posted a solution in this thread:

Thanks. This seems to be awfull complicated.
The lost mappings are more urgent right now. I will revisit this later.

Not sure what happened with your mappings. You don’t see any of them in the Mapping Assistant?

As for the duplicate controllers…

It’s not complicated at all–the details are just showing how I approached troubleshooting and finding a solution.

The TL;DR version is this:

  1. Open Cubase and open a new empty project from the empty template.
  2. Confirm that you don’t have duplicate MIDI remotes
  3. Open any project(s) with the issue–but do not activate the projects.
  4. Save the project(s) and they will be fixed.

Thank you. I fixed the mappings by recovering the user folder from my time machine. Somehow the gloabl script got overwritten with nothing in it.

For the duplicate controllers I tried that method as suggested and it worked. Let’s see if it stays this way :wink:
