Midi Targets disappear when connected to X-Station

My old iOS setup was a crappy Alesis (pre-iOS) USB mixer, a USB/Midi cable, and a midi controller or two all connected to a powered USB hub, which was connected to my iPad 4 via the CCK. All worked flawlessly when using Lemur.

I've since simplified that with just my X-Station (connected to the powered hub to lessen any power draw from the iPad), but the principle is the same. I'm quite happy with this setup, no lag or other issues, other than that I just noticed that Lemur stops supporting any midi targets when the X-Station is plugged in; this does not happen using the generic USB/midi cable, but as soon as I plug in the Novation all targets disappear, and reappear as soon as I disconnect it.

Some googling suggests that people are using the X-Station with Lemur, and I've had no conflicts using it with any other apps besides Lemur. Any thoughts about what could be causing this?

I have this same problem. I can get it to work sometimes by using midi bridge, and changing the order I plug things in - with x station unplugged, choose "midi bridge" as output in Lemur, then plug in x station, then set midi bridge to connect to x station (don't change anything in lemur settings). Not ideal, but hey.

Hi guys,

It's not clear to me whether the issue is with X-Station or MIDI Bridge. Can you please send a concise, step-by-step, method to reproduce the issue? Please let me know exactly which version of iOS, Lemur, and device (iPad / iPad 2 / etc) you are using. You can send this to support@liine.net, or click on the contact link http://support.liine.net

Best regards,
Nick
