Question about hooking up USB devices - SoundRider - 06-26-2021

Hey all,

... as a proud owner of a MRCC, which I received a couple of days ago, I tested some of my USB-Midi gear. Now my question.

Is there a kind of hand-shaking or switch-on procedure, which I should consider, when I plug in new gear in USB ports?

Background:
My Keystep worked instantly on the MRCC, but my Pyramid needed some attempts, before it was accepted. I cross-checked the Pyramid without changes with my MPC, connected it to one of the USB ports and it was plug'n play as expected.

I wouldn't call this an issue, but it makes me wonder:
  • should I first power up the MRCC, then connect unpowered USB gear, and finally switch on the gear,
  • or should I have MRCC with power off, connect all gear, and power on MRCC as the last,
  • or doesn't such a procedure matter at all
Thanks in advance for any advice ... and many kudos to the makers of the MRCC ... I enjoy the flexibility and particularly the UI ... a great product. Love it!
