Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated. I don't want to buy a new one only to have the same problem. Do any of you use a MIDI Controller with Windows 10, and if so what have you found that actually works. Can anyone explain to me in more detail what exactly is going on with Windows and MIDI Controller Devices?ģ. Has anyone run into this issue and actually fixed it?Ģ.
This might be because MIDI Keyboards are not making drivers for Windows 10, but isn't that the point of plug-and-play? Shouldn't the latest version of Windows run a MIDI keyboard EASILY?ġ. The drivers will not run on Windows 10, or in compatibility modes.

However, when I plug it in, windows registers only for a brief second that I have a USB device connected, and then it disappears. The keyboard says it requires no drivers, and should be plug-and-play and compatible with Windows or iOS. It was a cheap one on Amazon that I thought would be a great first purchase to try something new.
The keyboard I got is a simple MIDIPLUS AKM320 keyboard.
