Not seeing Quad Cortex showing in input or output devices on iPad in MIDI Guitar 2

So I carefully read through this thread from the begining and it suddenly made sense. The thing that ultimately caught my eye was your buffer size…it shouldn’t be 288. This vaugely reminded me of a past iOS issue with MG2 and also PD Space Guitar (and other apps too according the JUCE developers forum).

I went ahead and typed “MG2 iOS 18” into the search field. Here’s the first very first result that comes up:

And, the TLDR answer is that MG2 is not compatible with iOS/iPadOS 18.

The recommendation is to replace it with the MG3 beta version, which will do everything you need and more.

So yes, you were right. It was an iPadOS update that messed things up for you and this explains why my iPad running the previous OS version still works properly.

Hope this helps.
