Default Missing MIDI Device Open Project

If I turn on a MIDI device while a project is open (e.g. keyboard, electric drums, etc.), it's not available to select from the track's input FX drop down. I have to open preferences and close it, and then I'm able to select it from the track.

It's not a big deal, but curious if this is a bug or normal?

Yeah, that's the normal behavior.

In this case you can use the [Reset all MIDI devices] button in the MIDI device preferences: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5gLZZ_otG8
Or assign a Shortcut to the corresponding Action 'Reset all MIDI devices' in the Action List.

Thanks, solger. The shortcut idea worked like a charm.

I assigned the Action "Reset all MIDI devices" to a toolbar button for the top-left section of REAPER. I have to press it occasionally if a MIDI device stops sending data.

Actions > Show action list >
Filter: "Reset all MIDI devices"
Section: "Main"
