Make sure that on your A4 settings “Overbridge” is selected instead of USB Midi.

No USB hub is needed, a regular USB port will do.

Have you checked the midi settings on A4 to make sure you are sending and receiving from USB and not just from the 5 pin? Midi + usb or just usb in port settings.

Just usb ob.

Just try using the A4 as a sound card output device because that’s a much simpler set up. To be crystal, just get it to send video on computer>a4>headphones.

If that’s not working you know it doesn’t involve ob software.

Make sure the NEW Elektron plugins downloaded with Overbridge are in the right folder on your computer.

If it’s not showing up, a faulty cable may be the cause. A new Elektron cable does not means that it’s working properly.

lots of helpful info here:

thinks of note that you haven’t mentioned, and basic trouble shooting info:

MacOS version? Which are you on? OB2 only works from OS 10.12 to 10.15

OB2 version? Which are you on? 2.0.39.10 is the latest. Confirm you have the latest.
