hey guys,
My Sylenth1 suddenly stopped working in all of my DAWs from one day to the other and I can't for the world find out why. It loads up fine and when I play a not on the keyboard it shows up on the keyboard of the Sylenth1, but now sound comes out. Sometimes I can hear the odd squelch but nothing else. This happens in all of my DAWs: Pro Tools, Logic or Ableton. I've tried deinstalling it and reinstalling it, but that didn't help. I'm on a Mac mini intel with OS 14 Sonoma.
Has anyone else had this issue? Does anyone know what it might be?

Hi,
If you are using RME ARC (or any similar DAW controller), then the problem is caused by that device sending DAW communication data over midi, which Sylenth1 responds to (including note off messages). Please either turn off the midi input from that device or change the communication data to SysEx in the device's firmware. That'll solve the issue.
