MIDI Keyboard Plays VS-700 Console

chek you conttrol surface in and out ...reboot ..

@Konradh - is it possible that your USB-connected keyboards are being disabled for inactivity, by Windows?  
 
That is the default behavior for Windows, and you can change that to NOT allow Selective Disabling of USB Devices, either through Power Options - advanced - or through Device Manager (for Device Manager you would go to each USB hub and bring up properties, then go to Power Management).

Konrad , go to prefernces , and slelect your VS 700 then be sur that vs 700 console is selected on both in and out ...
 
The be sure that "VS 700 console" is not selected in other Midi controllers in/out 
 
 

I have not figured out the USB keboard issue, but here is what is going on with the MIDI keyboard controlling the console:
 
•  I have an ongoing issue with INs and OUTs (both MIDI and Audio) being set to different values when I open a project.  I also sometimes see devices checked or unchecked differently in Preferences.  I have no idea what is causing that.
•  In this case, a MIDI track I was using as reference only and that was not output to any device, and changed itself to output to Console.  Since its input was OMNI, anything played on the keyboard went to this track and affected the console--even though Echo was off and a different track was in focus.
• I think it Preferences VS-700 was selected (correct).  I think I want VS-700 as Input and NONE as Output, but I am not sure.  I think I only need VS-700 as Output if I am syncing an external device (such as my old VS-1680).
 
This was a simple fix once it was identified, but it is still quite annoying that tracks change their I/O on their own.  Sometimes this requires me to go through 30-40 tracks one by one, checking and resetting the I/O.
 
I think this corruption happens as the project is loading because I can't imagine it happening while the project is idle on the hard disk.
 
This is just one of the many things that has been odd ever since X1 was installed.  I have a number of bugs that no one else on the forum seems to experience which makes me question if something was wrong with the initial install.
 
Regarding the USB keyboard, the Power Management options don't appear exactly as others have described, but I did find that Sweetwater has a custom power plan set up on this PC, and it seems to be set so that USB devices never go off, but I will have to post a screen image later to show what it looks like.
