Standalone midi sync help

So I mainly use my MPC One recording live instruments and resampling, including a Reface CP and Novation Mininova. Im just beginning the midi journey (but to be clear I have an mpk controller, am trying to get it out of the chain.) SO before I hooked up the mininova, I could record all midi notes and trigger the reface just like a controller. But as soon as I hook up the mininova and even change the midi channel, I get nothing. It’s not even showing up in my sync preferences tab. All machine firmwares are up to date. Any guidance or help is greatly appreciated.

It doesn't seem to be a sync issue, but if the devices have disappeared from the MIDI/Sync tab, it might be a power issue with the USB hub.

Hmmm yea I’m not sure. The only thing hooked up via usb is my UA476 interface. A buddy much more experienced than me with midi is gonna come help me out this week, so fingers crossed

How are you connecting the CP and Mininova to the MPC via MIDI?

So this literally just got me thinking and went into the music room and switched some cables around and it worked haha originally I just had the MPC out to reface in reface out to nova nova back to MPC. But I just switched the reface to usb and kept the nova on midi ports. They both showed up in my sync tab!
