Additional context

It works fine when using the KORG Kontrol Editor (Windows).

Is anyone else experiencing the same event?

haven't been many units avilable yet. still waiting on mine. I use OSX for development.

I can reproduce the issue with the current version of logue-cli as well on Arch Linux

$ logue-cli probe -V
Version: 0.07-2b API: 1.01-0

$ logue-cli probe -d

logue-cli isn't updated to account for the differences in the MIDI implementation between the old and new NTS revisions.

I've created a Python based MIDI CLI librarian that supports the NTS-1 MK2 for the features in logue-cli for Linux users / command line diehards: https://github.com/TarkanAl-Kazily/py-logue-tools

[john-k-walton]

thanks Tarkan! hope they get logue-cli for mkii up. i can't stand GUI's or the Librarian. cli is the best interface for dev's too, we can just tack the unit load on the end of the compile script; no extra steps slowing it all down with a GUI.

Thank you for your excellent work! It worked perfectly on my Ubuntu 22.04. Now I can incorporate automatic transfer of sound units into my build. Awesome.
