If a Wacom is just a mouse, why doesn't it just work like all other mice?

Live 6.5? Thats a new one on me, I thought it went from 6.0.10 to 7...

Never seen this in any version of live, but the way I work round this is to keep a whole selection of useful midi controllers/notes on my midi controller as control patches, then if I need to map something specific than I can quickly and easily map it, use the midi controller to input the data, then...

Ask some of the Cubase users who ever invested in the Steinberg Houston controller where it is now ? The Houston was shite though. Nice blog post about this very idea that software companies are crap at hardware here: http://createdigitalmusic.com/2008/03/17/one-fader-control-surfaces-a-cubase-only...

I'd say your sticking point would be the HD, it's only 5400, with no 7200 option, other than that, as long as you can budget for a little extra RAM from elsewhere (not from apple - V. Expensive) you'll probably be ok, I'm using an early 2007 mid range macbook, which is not as good spec wise as the c...

'm running on OS X, so it's not the same...

So when you are playing back in live, are you getting a level on the main out of the ultralite?

I'm using a March 07 Macbook, with an ultralite with no issues what so ever.

I have no idea what 'chipset' it uses, I'm a mac user.

Press Page/setup (under 'mixer') once and check the gain control for the little phatty input is up, all the inputs default to down. Then Press Page/Setup twice so it says 'set up', then scroll through those and let us know what they all say. Clock Source: internal Fader View Time: 1 sec Bus output: ...
