Can't get midi input from Launchkey mini
Looked in the forums and couldn't find a solution. I have a Novation LaunchKey Mini MK3 and I can't enter notes through it. Works fine with Logic and Finale.
I've already tried the various note input methods, input works fine from the typing keyboard and with the mouse. In the configurations I've tried both midi input from Core MIDI/Launchkey DAW Port and MIDI Port and no luck at all.
Any ideas?

Yes, I already tried this. It was suggested in one of the questions I found in the forums. Made no difference.
I wonder if there's something very simple that I'm missing, but I can't imagine what that would be. I tried everything I can think of.

USB. It's connected to a powered hub. I can try to connect it straight into the computer, but I doubt it would make a difference, as it works fine with the other programs I have here.
Do you mean it shows in the dropdown in Edit / Preferences / I/O, but doesn't actually seem to work? Or doesn't show at all? if the latter, could be you need a 64-bit driver. or 32-bit MuseScore.

No, it appears there, but I can't get it to actually enter notes.
Please look at the picture. It's in PT-BR, but I think you can find out what is what by their position on the screen.

What happens if you enter note input mode, type/click in one note normally, then - without moving the cursor or leaving note input mode - press and release a key on the MIDI keyboard. If this adds a note to the current chord, it suggests your keyboard isn't sending recognizable note-off messages.

Sorry for taking so long to get back here. I wasn't finding the time to test it. So, today, a little by chance, I found out that if I use my external audio interface as the audio device, the midi controller doesn't work, but if I choose my Mac's internal audio card, then MuseScore detects the controller's input.
