In the past it worked fine. Now it isnt.  
I put the ScalerControl2 under the Midi FX, then any software instrument under Input. I get no sound… when playing the software instrument. Only when I turn off the Midi FX is when I hear the software instrument. What am I doing wrong?

Hi @giladal

are you using an M1 mac? It might be because there is an issue with the MIDI FX version a the moment.
