Running the Midi cable from BC to Audiophile

Yeah I'll have to get on to Behringer, problem is I bought it in the Uk and I'm in Ireland.

Looks like it was a connection issue, I got a dud unit. I have to remove the usb cable and move it about slightly then open up Liave again for it to work.

hmmmmm, ok, you're trying to use the internal mapping mode of the BCR... that's not the easy way to do it. you'd better use Live's mapping: - click on the MIDI button (top right hand corner) or press Ctrl-M - select the parameter you want to assign in live - turn the corresponding knob on the BCR -...

So just to clarify how I would set it up, 1 Make sure it is in U mode and not S mode. 2 Click Midi on live 3 Hold edit and click a button or move encoder 4 Click edit again, we're in edit mode 5 Click a track or volume I want to edit 6 Hold edit and click a button or move encoder 7 The CC number wil...

I din't know you were using automap; your prefs DONT look correct for that (or for mackie control). Your prefs are set up (in the image you posted at ALDJ) for straight ahead one control at a time midimapping. So try the test I suggested - Map one knob to one slider, and see if it works correctly. ...

Sorry you misunderstood the last post, I'm not using either. I presume auto map is using BCR on the remote control option. What I was saying is I just go to preset 1 and edit, don't use automap or macki control.

Mackie contro or auto map, I just go to preset 1 and edit. This is why an idiots guide might help, this could be something really simple and I end up looking like a tool

So how do I do that, is midi ox compatable with vista?

Looks like there is only communication with live sometimes, as I said I had it working again on Friday for a couple of hours but when I switched off the laptop and powered back up there was no communication. I thought it might be something to do with the way I have to controller set up and not ablet...

Can someone give me a step by step Idiots guide to setting this up to control Live. I'm pulling my hair out at this stage, I've got it working twice only since september. Basically it doesn't always send midi data to live. As I said I got it working twice and stored all the settings only to start it...

I have the Vista driver for my Echo Indigo DJ. Thats not the problem as I have the option of choosing the soundcard, the problem is I can't use it with my internal soundcard because ASIO4ALL disappears.

I have no choice about vista, I just bought a new lap top, none of the newer lap tops come with xp any more, and in a lot of cases downgrading to xp is not supported so there's no drivers and also voids warranty.... same here. brand new vaio laptop. they simply don't sell new laptops with XP.
