Got my Rytm the other day and so far everything is going well - however, I am trying to update the OS to 1.30C with C6 and the sysex file will not send… I have tried two different USB cables including the one which came with the Rytm, to no avail… Could anyone offer suggestions?
My Rytm is not being recognised in Overbridge either.
The first suggestion is to make sure your Rytm is setup to send/receive MIDI over the correct ports, and that it’s in Overbridge Mode… (for ex. if you’re using USB, make sure USB is selected in MIDI Port Config)
Secondly, I’d try what I just discovered (thanks to @Snowbird), which is connecting the Rytm before turning it on, and then enabling Overbridge Mode etc. That might help too…
Additionally, make sure you select the sysex files in the C6 window - just because it’s listed in the window doesn’t mean C6 knows which files you’re sending. They have to be selected, and then sent. Good luck!
The same thing is going on here. Rytm is not recognized in Win7 since OS 1.30.
Overbridge is not even involved yet, I just want to connect the AR to the PC but there is no sign of any USB communication. When I start C6, it’s unable to allocate midi ports and rytm doesn’t show up in the config menu since the previous OS update. AR’s midi in/out is set to USB, midi port allocation is set to default. I tired every usb ports and two different cables. It still works well with my A4 (OS 1.22). Does anybody have an idea?
I have the same problem. C^ does not recognize my Rytm either. I am on PC, and just installed C6 to transfer samples. I was following along with the video.
Made a new project - named it
Set the Midi Port Config to Input from USB
Went to Samples - made a new directory - set to upload here
but C6 does not show my RYTM as a input or output destination.
I tried different midi cables…no effect.
I have not tried Overbridge as yet.
Any ideas??
Thanks!

maybe something you have already done… but for me I changed USB ports and it worked. I unplugged all USB devices and tried each USB port until it recognized and it finally worked.
Changing USB Ports also did not work.
I notice that in Device Manager (Win 10) there is an exclamation point next to the entry for RYTM.
It has an error code :
“The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
There are no compatible drivers for this device.
To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver.”
Of course Windows searches for but does not find any updated drivers… .
Problem Solved!
My RYTM was in “Overbridge Mode”, and not under “USB-Midi Mode”
Go to System > USB Config and set the correct mode.

since i re-installed windows on my notebook, the rytm did not get detected right. windows error driver cant be loaded, so the rytm is not seen by overbridge. the latest usb drivers from manufacturer are installed. also overbridge-mode is enabled on the rytm. before reinstalling windows i run the same configuration and set of drivers like now and overbridge worked flawlessly. ideas are welcome 
hey everyone. i’m having the same problem, but i’m running mac osx sierra. I’ve switched to usb midi only and now the analog rytm is recognized in the midi studio. The device is online. Nevertheless, when i open c6 i can’t find the analog rytm as an input or output.
issue solved. just had to remove the rytm from my audio midi setup and then reconnect it

Yo! I’m having major issues with this. I’ve got input and output set to USB, tried all USB ports of 2 laptops, 3 different cables and no luck.
There’s no overbridge mode for me in the settings as I’m running 1.02F
My laptops just won’t read the RYTM, C6 sees my novation launchkey but nothing else. I can’t update OS or load samples or even think about using Overbridge.
Please help. Is there anywhere I can install a set of drivers from? Has anyone experienced this issue before?

I’m in this boat too.
First I got the “Cannot allocate midi in port.” Resolved that.
Now all “looks” correct, but when I drag my samples to C6 and press Send, nothing happens…
How did you guys fix the “Cannot allocate midi in port” and “Cannot allocate midi out port” errors?
I’m on Windows 10.
Function + Track; System; USB Config; select USB-MIDI Only. (unless you use Overbridge - I do not).
I couldn’t solve it since my original post…
The problem is that my devices are still not recognized in Win7 (no OB involved just as plain usb devices). I uninstalled everything but some components of the AR’s and A4’s drivers probably remained installed (nothing is shown in the device manager though) so it doesn’t start installing fresh drivers when I connect them. I don’t even hear that system sound what Win makes when you connect a new usb device. Do you maybe know how I can delete and uninstall everything related to AR and A4 in Win7?
I have the exact same problem. Even tried on Mac and got nothing. Contacted support who told me that the USB port is faulty and that I should contact the retailer.
Thank you! I had the same issue, it’s working now <3
Problem Solved: I kept getting the “Cannot allocate midi in/out port” message when trying to use C6 & Rytm because Google Chrome was automatically running something midi related that created the problem.
I shut down Google chrome, set up Rytm & C6, and all is well.

Okay folks, any suggestions for this problem:
In my RYTM, the current version is 1.31C and I try to update it to 1.31D.
BUT in my laptop the C6 (or any other sysex software) won’t recognize the AR so I can’t update my AR or load any samples.
Overbridge Mode is NOT on.
I’ve tried several different USB cables.
The Midi Input & Output are on USB.
I’ve tried to update also on Windows computer.
What else…
My AR isn’t recognized by any computer.
Can anyone help me? I need this to work and I’m feeling very irritated cos I need the sample features.
well double check that USB is enabled of course in MIDI Options, perhaps try MIDI+USB see if that does anything
