[PD] time travelling with AKM320 and Pd

[Jaime Oliver]

I should say that while aconnect works fine mostly, there are a lot of issues with running it. The main one is that it doesn’t seem to show current connections, just available devices, also, often it will stop working (with no apparent reason) and the device needs to be unplugged and plugged in again. 
I don’t know if connecting from Pd would solve these issues, but that would be a reason to bother. 
I however, don’t know either if this is an issue for anybody else…
best,
J
