Why is there no control surface response on my Tascam FW-1884 Accessories?
- JJoshua BarnesAug 17, 2025
Several factors could be the reason for no control surface response: * Check if the FireWire LED is lit, indicating a valid connection. * Verify that the FW-1884 appears as a MIDI device in your Device Manager. * Ensure your DAW application is correctly configured for an external controller. * Confirm the MIDI I/O ports are set to “FW-1884 Control” on MIDI input and output. * If running in Native Protocol, ensure the appropriate plugin is installed in the correct folder. * For MacOS 9, verify FreeMIDI or OMS is configured correctly. * If there's no response to fader movements, check if the correct fader bank is selected and visible on screen.
