XP Dual Core USB MIDI driver problem

[Redback]

THANK YOU!!!!!! I have been fighting XP for months trying to get my Korg M1 talking to my computer again, and this worked BEAUTIFULLY! Sure beats a re-install of XP! Thank you again, you're my new hero!

To anyone using a MIDI to USB cable like the ones you find on eBay, use this method!


[quote=TitoPulpo;2816826]Give this a try...Found it on another forum and just posting it around as I had big problems too.....

I found a fix that worked for me and I hope it works for anyone else experiencing the same issue. I had to Manually delete the UpperFilters and LowerFilters registry values. (maybe only one exists at your place)

***

To Manually delete the UpperFilters and LowerFilters registry values, follow these steps:

1. Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).
START > RUN > (Type) REGEDIT (and hit ENTER)


2. Locate the UpperFilters and LowerFilters value under the following key in the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

3. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.


Now you have to UNINSTALL THE USB AUDIO DEVICE, UNPLUG IT, AND REPLUG IT AGAIN

VOILA !!!! WORKING !!!!

Hi all, is the problem definately the logitech webcam, I bought a midi to usb converter on ebay and can't use it with my electronic drums, I have a dell dual core windows xp media center edition PC and I DONT have a WEBCAM. Is the upper and lower registry thing your supposed to delete just the name of the string bcos I don't see either in my registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

ALL I SEE IS

default reg sz sound video and game controllers
class reg sz media
enum prop pag reg sz Mmsys.cpl media proppageprovider
icon reg sz 3004
Installer 32 reg sz Mmsys.Cplmediaclassinstaller

Is there anything I can do or delete to fix this problem ??. I know nothin bout this I got to this page via google. Is windows xp media center a problem too ?. The device shows up under usb outputs in cubase and windows, sounds and audio devices under midi playback as usb [2]. I want it to show up as a midi input or at least an input. I'd really appreciate any advice.

Old 8/21 post, no answers--so--
You are likely going to need to contact the OEM for the MIDI/USB adapter.
The adapter driver is one issue, and the applications software another.
I have used both Yahama and Voyetra Midi adapters (Active USB/MIDI cables)
without a major problem.
The Voyetra adapter seems to be discontinued, unfortunately. That's a shame,
since it does work with Win 7.
(Driver included in Win 7)

Same problem, trying fruitlessly to get my USB-Midi cable to communicate between my Korg PA-50 and Sonar, despite Device Manager telling me everything was OK. This on a Toshiba A120 laptop with Intel single-core and XP SP2. Yet it works OK with my L300 laptop running Vista. Now, with Tito Pulpo's simple registry modification, my no-brand Chinese USB-Midi interface works fine on the A120 as well. Many thanks! I can stop tearing my hair out.

Would things change if I upgraded to SP3?
