core midi completely broken after install

Open mknerr opened this issue 1 month ago • 0 comments

Hello! Very interested in this to try and use midi as a control surface in companion. I recently installed it on MacOS 15.3 and shortly afterward, while trying to get some things talking to each other, core midi became completely unresponsive. I've restarted several times and even deleted midi settings, but when I open audio MIDI settings, it just spins and eventually crashes. I got another error at one point, saying Core MIDI could not be started.

Below is a script I used to delete the core midi settings. I've deleted the main midi-relay app. Is there anything else I should add to the script, or otherwise do to uninstall midi-relay so I can try again from square one? Thank you!

`#!/bin/bash

Backup directory

BACKUP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop/CoreMIDI_Backup_$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S)" mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"

echo "Backing up Core MIDI settings to $BACKUP_DIR..."

Files to back up

FILES_TO_BACKUP=( "$HOME/Library/Preferences/com.apple.audio.AudioMIDISetup.plist" "$HOME/Library/Audio/MIDI Configurations" "/Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers" "$HOME/Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers" )

Back up and remove files

for FILE in "${FILES_TO_BACKUP[@]}"; do if [ -e "$FILE" ]; then echo "Backing up $FILE..." cp -R "$FILE" "$BACKUP_DIR" echo "Removing $FILE..." rm -rf "$FILE" else echo "$FILE not found, skipping..." fi done

echo "Core MIDI settings have been backed up and removed."

Suggest a restart

echo "Please restart your Mac for the changes to take effect." `
