Solution
If you are using USB power, check that the power
switch on the back of the ControlPad is ON. If you
are using an AC adapter, check that the adapter is
plugged into a live power outlet and that the power
switch is ON.
Check your computer's USB connections to confirm
that the ControlPad is recognized and installed. Turn
you computer off and then on again if necessary.
(Choose "shut down" rather than "restart" to ensure
that the USB devices are properly reset.)
Try unplugging the ControlPad from any USB hubs
and connecting directly to the computer.
Ensure that the ControlPad or "USB" MIDI device is
listed as an active MIDI source in your application.
Many software applications have MIDI IN and OUT
indicators. Play some pads and look for the MIDI IN
light to indicate activity.
Be sure that the ControlPad is sending on the channel
that the target device expects.
Ensure that any 5-pin cables are connected to the
proper inputs and outputs.
