i recently got an apc40 and i find it quite awesome. one issue i've had is live sporadically not recognizing it
and indifferent of what i do (reboot live, connect and disconnect apc) the only solution i've found is actually
restarting my computer. has anyone else had this problem?
- mac os 10.6.7
- live 8.2.2

Under the live's preferences go to the tab MIDI Sync. Selected under Control Surface the APC 40 do this also for the Input and Output. Should work though.

sounds like a bad USB cable.
on Mac you can freely plug and unplug the thing and it tracks (so I've read.) PCs are a different, irrelevant story.

this was already done as soon as i first connected the apc.

it actually happened with 3 different usb cables. haven't had the issue since i first posted but we'll see what happens in the next days.
thanks for your input though!
