What is the purpose of the included 'classic' USB adapter cable?

Troubleshooting
mioXC is not recognized by the computer/device
Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the mioXC and the host device. Try a different USB port or a different USB cable. For mobile devices, ensure the host device supports USB MIDI class compliance.
No MIDI data is being sent or received
Verify that the MIDI cables are connected to the correct IN and OUT ports on both the mioXC and your MIDI device. Check that the correct MIDI device is selected within your DAW or music application's settings.
Intermittent MIDI dropouts or performance issues
Ensure you are using a high-quality USB cable. Try connecting directly to a USB port on the computer rather than a hub. Close unnecessary background applications on your computer that might be consuming system resources.
LED indicator not lighting up
Confirm the USB connection is active and providing power. Check the USB cable for damage. If the issue persists, the unit may require servicing.
