Fwiw: Power warnings seem to be a more or less obvious thing on iOS devices. I get them once when I connect, say, a USB extension cable, the next time I'm using the same cable, the warnings are gone and my iPhone is charging perfectly.

You resurrected by thread.
In the end I was given a SS25 for Christmas, wahay!!
Its also the first midi controller I've ever owned. Can't believe I lived on a keyboard and mouse before.

I connected my synthstation25 to my MBP's USB port via a cable, and none of my Midi Software on the laptop (Digital Performer v.8, NI's Pro-53, Arturia's SEM Oberheim virtual instrument) saw any Midi Data coming in. What am I doing wrong? The transpose lights lit up when pressed on the Synthstation keyboard, so it was definitely getting power, from the laptop....Is it necessary to have the phone plugged in?Breeze wrote:
In the meantime, I'm quite happy with the little "25": it's really great with nanostudio and does class-compliant USB when connected to my laptop. Sure it's limited, velocity isn't that great, but then it was only $65!
thanks for any help.

Not sure what you are doing wrong, but I can confirm you don't need to have the phone plugged in. Mine works fine on my iMac into logic express.

Thanks, BN - encouraged by your message, I tried a different cable, and . . . voila! Thanks again...
