From memory i think it was 38 - as soon as it was changed to something else, it worked. Are there particular CC's that SX3 reserve/doesnt like? but in either case, its no longer a problem. > The thing you describe about the push encoders happens to mine too. I think > it isn't the unit, I think it's Cubase. perfect! you know what you have done for me? you've saved me brining this unit to the store i bought it from (more than an hour away) for the support guy to test it out overnight. at least you've cleared this up. i was testing it by assigning these push encoders to mute instead and it worked, so i couldnt work out why audio track select mucks up. Mackie Emulation - where do i get this? Ive been trying to find it. And also this LCD soft display - i would like these (i think)! i remember reading that the Mackie Emulation was only available for the BCF.... but if its available for the BCR, and is highly recommened by users then ill give it a go. can you point me in the right direction? thanks for clearing up some stuff... i can stop pulling my hair out now! --- In bc2000@yahoogroups.com, "Elea" <eleavampas@...> wrote: > > Hi Kmxe > > The xml thing is a known bug.
