live.numbox automations don't work

Hi,

At the beginning I thought it's my fault but I face the same problems in every Max 4 Live device I make. If I have more than 1 live.numbox in a M4L device the reading of certain automations is constantly canceled. Imagine I have live.numberboxes called A, B and C. When I record the automation for A, the reading of that automation works fine. When I record the automation for B, the automation will be written but Live would not want to read it. The automation becomes grey/brown and if I press "back to arangement button" Live automatically switches back. In other words, I can record as many automations I want, but Live will read just few of them, sometimes only one.

Another example:

I have two automations (A and B) already recorded. Now I want to add the automation C. When I am recording the automation C, Live will stop reading B and therefore rewrite the whole B with a static value.


This problem is driving me crazy because the reason I bought Max 4 Live was the ability to record and read Max parameters. I would be very grateful for any explanation or advice...

PS: If there are no Max/MSP objects connected to live.numboxes so there is basically no CPU consummation going on, the writing/reading of automations works well. But as soon as live.numberboxes controll any CPU cheap DSP I face the problems discussed above.
