What happens when you select the midi input hardware but still nothing? Is there a Windows setting that controls midi? My Akai pads will not work with any TT product for some reason even though its selected in the choices in Stand alone SD3 or EZD2

Windows 11
Dell XPS 8940
32GB ram i9-10 Core
Focusrite 18i20 Scarlett +
Focusrite Octo Pre MK II for 36 channels in

I’m having the same issue with a new Akai LPD8 controller.  Anyone have a solution?

If the MIDI drivers are correctly installed, the Akai should be showing up as a MIDI device.
If it isn’t – then something has gone wrong. So I suggest you uninstall the drive first, then download the latest version from Akai again & re-install.
