Here's my suggestion, for something that would save me a hassle I seem to keep running into. I use Windows.

If I ever accidentally start Usine without some of my MIDI devices plugged in, once I realise my mistake, I exit Usine, plug them in, and then restart Usine. However, Usine will have deactivated those MIDI devices and I now have to go into the MIDI device settings and reactivate them. If they could just automatically reactivate once Usine has detected (after a restart) that they are plugged in, or perhaps if they could just not be marked as deactivated after being found not-plugged-in, this would save me a bit of trouble.

Of course it would also be wonderful if Usine could support having MIDI devices reconnected without having to restart the program - but I understand that this isn't the easiest thing to implement.

Thanks - and may I emphasize what great software Usine is :)

Thanks for you kind words and here a good news :
You don't need to quit Usine if you forget to connect a MIDI device, simply use the rescan devices button in the MIDI tab of the setup !

I see, thank you, that helps!

I still have to manually re-enable each MIDI device one by one though. I still think it would be great if Usine remembered which MIDI devices I had enabled while they were present, and as soon as they become present again, re-enable them automatically.
