brue58ski Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 Does the latest Powercab have an issue with Windows 11 via USB? I can't get Powercab Edit or Line 6 Updater to recognize it on my main computer. I've tried it on a laptop with Windows 10 and it sees it just fine. I just got a used Powercab 112+ and I was able to update it and run Powercab editor on the Windows 10 computer but my main computer which has Windows 11 on it doesn't see it. The audio drivers for the Powercab appear in the Device Manager and I can use it as the audio out for the computer so the computer does see something but it only treats it as an audio card. Anyone else run into this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwandering Posted October 26 Share Posted October 26 I have never had an issue with USB and the PC112+ on Windows 11. I don't do that frequently but just a couple of weeks back I did connect and it worked without a hitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brue58ski Posted 4 hours ago Author Share Posted 4 hours ago This issue has been solved. At least for me. I put in a support ticket and they suggested that Windows 11 MIDI needs to be changed via editing the computer's registry. You need to be really comfortable doing this before attempting it. Do at your own risk. You are changing the API mode from Full Windows MIDI Services to Legacy API mode. I don't neccesarilly know what those terms mean exaclty but this worked for me. I'm not sure why some people aren't having an issue with this but I was. I t now works fantastic. Here's the Microsoft website that tells you how to do this. Again do this at your own risk. https://microsoft.github.io/MIDI/kb/how-to-change-api-mode/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
