Hi there! I’m new in this forum. I’m an artist from Italy. I’m about to realise a sound art installation using playtronica touch me hardware and Organelle. When i plug in my TouchMe controller it power up but it does not send any midi to my organelle. Have you got some experiences with this 2? thx you a lot and sorry for my bad english ‘,’

Did you try plugging it into another synth, does it work with that?

i haven’t got any other synth with a usb host to try it. On Mac everything work just fine. I think is some kind of script/driver problem. The strange thing is that on the midi setting of the organelle it shows : Midi Device TouchMe MIDI 1, therefore the organelle recognizes it.

…did you select that as your device and ‘Save’ before leaving MIDI Menu?

Some other things to try:

- Did you try relaunching your Organelle patch after connecting the Touch Me?
- What MIDI channel is the Touch Me sending notes on?..is the Organelle set to receive on that same channel?
- The MIDI Monitor patch might be helpful: [MIDI Monitor 2.0 | Patchstorage](https://patchstorage.com/midi-monitor-2-0/)
