Halp! Live session stops inexplicably while using Faderfoxes

Hi folks,

I'm currently experiencing a problem using Live 5.2 in session view, and I'd be very grateful for any light shed on this issue:

I've using three Faderfoxes, an LD2, LX2 and LV1, chained in that order in a loop, with the first unit having anti-feedback switched on, as suggested.

Everything works perfectly, using effects etc., all units work just fine, BUT very occasionally, when I'm switching in/out and adjusting effects, live just stops everything -- the clips stop. I can just press play again to continue, but obviously it's rather disconcerting to have your set stop mid-flow.

Does anyone have any idea why this may be occurring? Perhaps some Faderfox users have experienced the same problem at some point or another? I'm playing a gig next week and would love it if someone could help me solve this issue, thanks!

Okay, Matthias is going to post some updated firmware chips to me to see if that'll do the trick.

I've never had any issue with the FaderFoxes - love them to pieces. Played a gig two Saturday's ago with no problem.

I've never had problems with them - they're the one piece of kit that has always just _worked_ - but I wish the best of luck!

Hello csl,

make sure to set up a chain exactly as described in the manual of the faderfox and activate the feedback killer on the LX2 - the device in the chain that is connected to the midi out of your computer/midi-interface.

If you still got problems please contact me by using this email:

Best,
