Thanks, Paul. Close the mixer to use the mixer

. That seems almost counter-intuitive, but I'll give it a shot. We sure do put up with a lot to be Tascam's/Sanewave's beta testers.

In the meantime, another question. I've purchased the Waves Native Power Pack (NPP) for this rig. Since Guitar Center only actually sold me a license code, I went to the Waves website to download the plug-in package. They want me to specify my hardware and software stuff, I assume so that I get the right thing. But of course they don't actually list the Tascam X48 hardware or software.

I'm pretty sure I just need the most generic VST format, but there's no "option" for that. Emails to Waves and Tascam have not yielded replies yet. A call to Tascam's "operational support" line generated an automated response that told me to call back later, *click*.

Once I figure this out, then I hope/assume I can burn a cd with the installation stuff on there, put it in the X48's drive, exit the host system, and install the plug-ins.

Of course all this has to happen with the iLok dongle shoved into a USB port on the back, I guess...

Anyone have any experience to share on this topic?
