    A lot of problems with USB midi in windows 8.1 ... Your mixer ran fine in windows 7, so i would suggest ditching 8.1, i did.

    There really isnt Jester. The problems with Windows 8.1 are massively overblown outside of the industry. In reality in the industry, theres very few problems with it. Ive got several midi devices that I change between Win 7 and win 8 computers, Ive never had a single problem.


    It could be Windows, sure but he still hasnt even ruled out the mixer, which is the quickest job to do before reinstalling windows.

    Ive never seen a driver problem cause a cold machine to not be recognised.

    First time for everything I guess.

    For sure yep, i would say the usb port is looking like the culprit on this one.

    Im really not sure. If the USB chipset on the pc was this hosed, it would very likely manifest itself in other ways, not just on this device.

    The exception to this is if the USB port cant put out enough voltage. What this has to do with the mixer being cold (if thats not just a coincidence) is the puzzler.

    Maybe something to do with the caps being charged after a few mins if the voltage is tool low ? ... Well until the OP tries a different PC we'll never know

    same problems with my tower (amd 64 3500) as well as my laptop. (intel core i7)

    once I do get the mixer recognised, I can hot swap my mixer between both no problems.

    My Xone 3D is running fine on Windows 8.1 and I think the driver is from Windows 7.
