midi beat clock

[peter99]

this 100% reproducable

take a session - insert some mondomods and some virusindigos

go to setup-> midibeatclock and activate all of them - protools quits after clicking on ok
this drives me crazy... I can activate 1 of them but with the second activation it quits

and what is also strange - in the beatclock list are more than 1 mondomod1 and also more that one mondomod2, 3, etc

it looks like this:

Mondomod 1
Mondomod 1
Mondomod 1
Mondomod 1
Mondomod 2
Mondomod 2
Mondomod 3
MT4 Port 1
MT4 Port 2
MT4 Port 3
MT4 Port 4

any help?? digi?

As an aside, why don't plugins just automatically get midi beat clock? Why do we have to go manually assign it each time?

Similarly, when a keyboard player wiggles his mystery keyboard knobs, why do I have to then guess what controllers they were and hunt through that long list of possibilities? Why don't they just automatically appear in the automation pulldown menu?

sorry to hijack your thread...

Have you tried installing the latest cs update? What about trashing prefs or testing from a new admin account? Can you give us a more complete system configuration description? Have all your plug-ins been updated for compatibility?

Since you're on Tiger, you can use the Tech Support Folder to generate a plug-in version list and paste it into your reply.

yep just checked...

got PT 7.4cs7 with access indigo 7.3 and waves 6.05 on OSX 10.4.11 - should work?


THAT's 100% reproducable for me:

- deleted all prefs and digi databases
- did a pram reset
- restarted and opened PROTOOLS
- new session
- 4 audio tracks - one with mondo mod mono and one with mondo mod stereo the rest of the tracks no plugins
- 4 instrument tracks - 1 track with indigo 1a - 1 track with indigo 1b and 1 track with indigo 2
- open midi beat clock
- activate all
- Protools quits!!

then I removed ALL PLUGINS except indigo and Waves - still the same

redid it 2-3 times - always the same - cant use midi beat clock any more and thats pretty [bleep][bleep][bleep][bleep]ty!

thx for help
