I happened to be at church during a rehearsal last evening. i wasn't involved.
After approx .5hr , without warning, the organ ciphered - big time. On the closing chord. I was in another room but heard . To make a long (unintended service call), what we finally figured out is that Hauptwerk didn't get a note(s) off. Clearing the cipher wasn't a big deal, but the organ wouldn't play after that. BTW that's the first time for a cipher.
Doing a quick troubleshoot, found in the device manager that the USB Hub didn't reset. Kinda fortunately, I had my laptop (with H/W etc installed on it) and plugged that in place of the organ's "resident" computer so as to permit finishing the rehearsal. Worked fine.
Ended up, I had to download a new driver for the hub. No further issue and the little yellow trianlge with the exclamation mark went away. Prior to downloading (and installing) a new USB hub driver, everything else seemed to work ok.
I should point out, against my advice, the person involved with this organ subbed a Windows 10 machine in place of the Mac Pro we originally installed. I guess he said a while back that he doesn't speak Mac. and didn't care to learn. Oh, well. Lead a horse to water, but - - - -
My question would be, is this a thing with Win 10? It's not the Anniversary Edition as far as I can tell. Or is this a potential problem with the hub? I stayed an extra 2 hrs and tried to make the problem repeat.. Of course it didn't. The hub is powered and connects with USB 3.0. Forgot the brand but it is (at least up until now) a good brand.
