+1 Me too, either restarting Reaper or going to the options page for Audio seems to restart MIDI..

Are either of you on XP pro(64 bit)? Can you give specifics of your system and more detail of the nature of the problem?

I'm on XP Home Edition 32 bit SP3. I have this same setup for about 2 years and these lost midi connections only happen in Reaper 3.0. MidiOx mantains the midi connections when Reaper loses them. On v2.56 i only experienced some hang notes at play/stop. Hardware midi is a must have for me. From what i've seen so far, Reaper 3.0 is amazing, i'm glad i bought the license some months ago. But with this bug, it's no use for me... :\ Hope the developers are following this! :)

Same here too, Reaper 3.0.0.0 M-Audio Axiom Pro 49 5.10.0.5124 Driver and Firmware (Transport Mode). Reaper MIDI Input and track configurations are correct as they did work the other day but have since failed. In fact I needed to run Reaper in Administrator Account mode to launch, previously in non-administrator mode Reaper would not pass Initialize Control Surfaces at launch.

From the replys so far, it seems this bug is present in different systems with different midi interfaces. I guess it must be a real bug in Reaper and not a system/user problem, but one that is hard to track down because sometimes it happens even when Reaper is idle and i'm surfing the web! When i get back to Reaper and press Play, hardware midi is gone. I can't replicate it in a consistent manner. I must say one more time: for me this only happens in Reaper 3.0. No other midi application on my system loses the hardware midi connections. Developers, please, are you following this? If you want, i can do any test you might think is relevant for you to track this. Thanks!

Is this all in v3? Can you retest with v2.58?

+1 Same here! (Posted it here , you can ignore or delete this extra post) Exactly like described by the other users. My setup: Reaper 3.0 Steinberg Midex 8 midi interface M-Audio Quattro AMD PC 2 GHz 2 GB RAM WinXP Pro 32bit

In my case I was losing MIDI on both 2.58 and 3.0. This was on Win XP Pro with Reaper 32 bit. Reaper on Windoxs XP 32 bit seems to be behaving itself. Although I reported previously that I was having ocassional problems, I think that may have been just a hung note and not a complete loss of a midi channel or channels. Reaper on XP pro is totally useless as it consistently loses midi connectivity in a matter of a few played notes whether using 2.58 or 3.0.
