Hello,

I'm running Logic on a MacBook Air (specs below) with my MOXF6 as a controller, external synth, and audio interface. It was fine for about a week. But today when I restarted Logic, the MOXF didn't show up as a MIDI device or audio interface. The MOXF6 doesn't show up as an option in system preferences audio either. I restarted the computer and the application and it wasn't there.

I dragged the com.apple.audio.DeviceSettings and com.apple.audio.SystemSettings files to the trash so the system rebuilt them. And then I restarted the computer and the application and the MOXF showed up. No problem. However, I finished my session, quit Logic, and when I went back to my compute, again the MOXF disappeared from the Logic Pro X device menus.

I read somewhere that I might repair permissions but I ran Disk First Aid and it didn't find any issues.

Has anyone had similar problems?

MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015)
2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Logic Pro X 10.2.3
El Capitan 10.11.6

We moved your post to the MOXF forum as your unlikely to find others with your issue in the reface forum!
Also your issue is not really a MOXF issue - but sounds like more of a Logic Pro / computer issue.

Here is your MOXF checklist: (if you are using the MOXF via USB for MIDI and Audio)
Make sure the MOXF is connected to the computer via USB
Make sure the MOXF is set for MIDI I/O = USB
Make sure the Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver version 1.9.10 for Mac is installed
Power on the Synth before launching your DAW software

I'm not a Logic Pro user, but remembering your setup is strictly child's play for a DAW like Logic Pro (consult the Logic Pro documentation).

All of this checks out. I also went through multiple troubleshooting steps with Logic including reinstalling the application. If you have any further suggestions, I'd be happy to try.

What does the Logic Pro documentation reveal?
