SD3 3.1.0 Stand-alone Not Recognizing Midi

[Kim Skalle]

Hello,

I just updated to 3.1 yesterday and can no longer play my Roland V-Drums through SD3 as a stand-alone which is what I always have been able to do until this update. It just keeps ‘waiting for midi’
I’ve rebooted my Mac, disconnected midi, reconnected etc but no matter what I try will not recognize midi.
It WILL recognize midi only if I go through a DAW (ie: GarageBand)

I hope this ability to play in standalone has not been removed in this update?

PS: Here is an attached pic of what it’s doing in standalone.
I have circled the issue in yellow.

Thanks

Have you checked Settings / Audio/MIDI Setup… so that the Roland drums are checked in the list of MIDI devices used by Superior Drummer 3?

Hi there,

I having an similar situation but im not able to find AUDIO/MIDI Setup in SD3 settings? Would you know why that may be the issue?

 

I have followed instruction about a duzzin times with drivers, vender mode, local control, IAC Driver lit up but nothing. My Studio one DAW can now read it and set up to it but my Roland TD-27KV is not working. Waiting for MIDI is all i am getting.?

Any guidence here? I thinking the issue has to do with more of the Audio/MIDI Setup in SD3 settings.

by the way, i have an extension  USB cable to the Roland MIDI cable to USB connected to a USD thunder bolt 3 adapert in Mac M1. Hope that made sense

Thank you for your time.

Hi there,

Audio/MIDI settings are only available when running SD3 in standalone mode not as a plug-in within Studio One. When you are running as a plug-in, your DAW manages device input.

Try stopping Studio One and running SD3 from your applications folder standalone and see if you can get input from your TD-27KV.
