Automap problem with Live 5.2 and Macintel pro

Post by Darthen » Tue Apr 11, 2006 4:23 pm

Hey all.

I don't know if it happend for any one using the Remote SL's godly Automap feature... but while all the mapping is done correctly,
and all the on/off functions depending on the first row of buttons react perfectly,
the encoders (endless pots) do not produce any results on Operator's controls nor on any of the Live built-in effects. 8O
(I couldn't try anything else as I have no VST 2.4 plugs :cry: )

P.S. : I use the last version of the automap firmware from novation

Help anyone?

Did anyone find a solution to this? I've just bought a Zero SL and am experiencing the same issue.

Thanks

try the live 5.2.1 beta. It has some fixes for you SL owners...
They're undocumented fixes because of the reported issues were random or somehting like that.

I downloaded the beta and tried that but still the same issue.

The mapping for the controls on the right hand side works fine and I can map all the controls manually using normal midi mapping.

Very frustrating!!

the automap works perfectly fine here: remoteSL 1.0.13 with Live 5.21b

Darthen: you wrote that "endless faders don't produce any results" - how about the display above the knobs? do they show the parameters of the selected plug-in?

how is your remoteSL connected to your computer?

does the MIDI LED flash in Live when turning the endless knobs?

For me the displays work fine showing the parameters and they change if make adjust the parameters using the computer. In addition the buttons above the endless encoders seem to work fine for switching things on and off, it's just the endless encoders themselves that aren't doing anything.

So I've made some progress and managed to fix this by downloading the following from the Novation site:

ReMOTE SL Installer v7 (Mac OSX)- Not for ZeRO SL - Contains Reason/Cubasev2/Logicv2/Nuendo/Ableton Automap

It's upgraded the operating system to 1.0.15 and fixed the problem but it does say "Not for ZeRO SL". Anyone have any ideas whether I will have broken something else by doing this?

Thanks

hi ben,

thanks for letting me know. do you know which SL OS version you had before installing v.1.0.15?

it is also interesting that novation does only offer the OS 1.0.13 update as a separate download on their website so i think there is not much difference between 1.0.13 and 1.0.15.

in any case i didn't have any problems with 1.0.13, maybe you had an even older OS/template in your SL before?

I had 1.0.14 before which was the version that came with my Zero SL.
