But ... WHY?

I am a PC... so upgrading is better than replacing Seems like they have changed the LEDs and "CPU"..

I doubt they have changed much on the pcb-layout... but I also doubt we'll ever see a howto-guide on ifixit.com

There might be a way to start live when push is plugged in/turned on via the taskscheduler... We would need to find out the event id for plugging in/powering the Push. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-windows_programs/task-scheduler-how-to-automatically-synchronize-my/4...

^ yeah at what cost? This could be a free firmware update. Strange product launch for sure. Looks like Ableton booted Novation out of the inner sanctum. They changed the chip, board and leds I wonder if it would be possible to solder the new chip to the old board... dont need no new leds, just more...

Yeez, you mean he forgot to route the audio into live ?

There must be a internal switch between midi and cv-input... maybe it's locked somehow to cv-input or so... taking it to a nearby store would be the best way to make sure there is no problem on softwareside (like a fcked up windows/driver installation/configuration).

Strange, but yeah as I said try to get some sounds out of the Nano by using CV... go to a musicstore and ask if they can hook it up to a synth or interface with cvout and try that (and midi of course, too).

Yeah a cable is one option but also check other usbports, maybe a powered usbhub. And try it on a different pc. Or go to a musicstore to check the nano with something that has midiout / cvout.
is there really no midiout on that maudio, that sucks...

try another usb-port and/or rebooting (obviously )
do you have a proper midicable? that would solve the problem, I guess.
Still you could check the usbmidicable with the m-audio... plug the usbmidiinput to the output of the maudio. route the midi from the usbmidi-in to a vst. does it work?

Do the notes in the midiclip play in the right keyzone (c1-c6)
can you play notes with the pc keyboard?

I also had some problems with some cheap usbmidicables. Does the cable show up in midi preferences? Did you activate Track and Remote for the midiout? If the Romio is built similar to the cheap cables I bought then there should be a led lighting up when there are midinotes played... Just checked the...

Mkay... I don't mind RE anyway...
I guess they will end up in a Reason "Ultimate" version or "Game of the Year Edition" someday
At least the ones Propellerhead did themselves.

just a shot in the dark...
check your midicable midiout needs to be connected to the nanozwerg.
check your midisettings, add a midiclip with a few notes, play them... if nothing comes out, play around with the midisettings.
usbcable is recognized by windows?
