SX3 Device Manager Voodoo

Another day, another dollar. No, that's not right. Let me try again.

Another day, another post about an SX3 Device Manager problem. There. That's more what I wanted to say.

Just wrote up a driver. Very simple driver. Only 4 objects. When I installed it into my Default.cpr, I can only get the first 3 parameters to show up on the Arrange Page. In fact, I can only get 3 parameters tracks to show.

Any theories?

Probably your best bet, but you probably already know this...

Thanks SoulSpace. I did post at Cubase.net and I applogize for taking up room with questions that are only vaguely related to this site, but this Device Manager is embrionic and buggy and nobody seems to have the answers, so I'm left clutching at straws.

All the best,

Ian

No problem,

I am no expert but why do you have to "write up a driver"? Can't you just set up what you want in "VST Connections" and save that as a .cpr template with a file name of your choosing to work from in the future with all of the presets you want? I don't know if I'd use "default.cpr".

Maybe I don't understand what you mean when you said you wrote a driver but it seems a little complex for what it seems you want to do...

add...

I'm sorry, I thought you were talking about VST Device setup... But the same (above) should be true for Midi Device Manager. I take it you wrote a driver to install a midi device not on the pre-installed list? Maybe "Create New Midi Device" is what you need under Device Manager? I think this is what this is for.

I was able to finally get everything working last night. There's a post at Cubase.net with a few details that saved my bacon.

Thanks,

Ian

thumbsup Great Ian. If you don't mind can you post the link to the post in question on the Cubase forum, and I am interested since I just getting the Cubase SX beast working to it's full potential and trying to learn as much as I can.

Good luck!

Hope that helps,

Ian
