Automap 4 crashes Live 8!!!
Automap 4 crashes Live 8!!!
Does anyone know why I have to uninstall Automap 4 in order for Live 8 to even start up? I just bought a Novation Impulse and installed AM4. None of my DAWs would even start up after installing AM4. If you go to the Novation site to learn how to uninstall AM4, you get a VERY lengthy set of instructions which I followed. (Uninstaller anyone??) After uninstalling AM4, Live worked again. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!!
Thanks!!

Re: Automap 4 crashes Live 8!!!
more information would be helpful...
why aren't your DAWs starting up? what are the error messages? is it VST/AU validation problems?
one thing to look out for is that some DAWs have problems with the Automap-wrapped versions of some plug-ins. go in to the Automap preferences and turn off the mapping of all your plug-ins, and see if your DAWs will now launch.

Re: Automap 4 crashes Live 8!!!
Thanks for the advice. It still won't work. No plug-ins are checked off, I am running the latest version of both programs, and whenever I have Automap installed, Live will not start up. It gets stuck trying to initialize the program. Then when I uninstall Automap, Live starts right up. I am trying to set up the Impulse following the steps in Automap, but when I get to the step of opening Live, it will not open........

Re: Automap 4 crashes Live 8!!!
...or simply use the impulse without automap. that seems to be best practise if you want a stable system since automap 4 is a buggy mess. if you do a little research on this forum you`ll experience soon that you`re not the only one having issues with automap 4.

Re: Automap 4 crashes Live 8!!!
I am not sure if it happens in ver.8.3 but definitely in all previous 8 versions- under some circumstances, when Automap is already opened while opening Live hangs on input/outputs (you can see it on splash screen) and unless you close Automap it wont ever open. Once you close Automap Live continues opening. Never found any other way to have both Automap and Live opened normally, then to restart OS - I describe here the case when for whatever mysterious reason that error appears. Live and Automap may work perfectly for hours and days but sometimes that weird thing happens.
