- A common reason for connectivity issues is that the phone's USB or lightning port has accumulated dirt, lint or dust that is preventing the GO:MIXER PRO from connecting. Check with the phone manufacturer for information regarding properly cleaning this port out--in order to make connectivity.
- Test with a USB cable that came with the GO:MIXER PRO. If the problem continues, test with a different USB cable (if available).
- iPhones
