Yosemite support with EuCon

[robertg]

I am beside myself with amazement. Now wi-fi doesn't work either? What is so complicated about this piddly little text-based data (fader values, timecode) which could probably all fit through a 56k modem, that now it doesn't work with wi-fi?

I feel like this stuff is just getting worse, not better.

EuCon needs competition.

Guess now's as good a time as any!!!
I saw from your setup that you have HD & Native? It works no problems on both?
Peace - J.

In our larger control room we have HDX2 and Icon 32 ES but in the smaller production and writing rooms we have HDN and Apollo Quad and Apollo 16 with PT11HD so no "vanilla" systems but they would work the same with Eucon.

It'd be interesting to capture the traffic of an MC Control and four MC Mix's, during a fairly complex mixdown. Considering the Artist Series NIC's are 100Mbps, one wouldn't think five controllers would overrun an 802.11n network. Things could be different with the older/slower WiFi standards or if someone was streaming Netflix on the same network.

Given EUCON's track history, however, I'd wager $100 to a penny that it's a EUCON coding problem, rather than anything inherent to WiFi.

Hey Christopher,

got it working now! Have had much crashes before (EuControl AND Logic X at the same time), but now it works.

I have 4 devices: 2 Mix, 1 Control and 1 Transport. I am working with OS X 10.10.1, EuControl 3.2.1 and Logic 10.1.0.

With the following procedure I got no more crashes and everything is working fine now:

1) Switch OFF Mac and the 4 devices
2) Booting Mac, but letting the 4 devices be switched OFF
3) Waiting until the EuControl symbol in the menu bar stops spinning
4) Starting Logic X
5) When Logic is up complete, I switch ON only ONE of the Artist Mix devices
6) When this device is ON complete, I switch ON the Artist Control
7) When this device is ON complete, I switch ON second Artist Mix
6) When this device is ON complete, I switch ON the MC Transport

I don't know why this all is working now, but maybe I had IP address conflicts before (when switching ON all 4 devices nearly simultaneously). Or it was the chronological order that has caused the crashes.

In my experience I can open and close eucon + turn on/off the controllers at will between sessions, and everything works like it should.. sometimes.

Other times, it's all useless until after a reboot.

Hey Hank, does this work with Logic as well? I'm going to go give it a try & let you all know what happens!!! BRB

[Tone King Records]

lol Sorry - I just saw that you're only working with Logic! LOL

[Tone King Records]

Well that's [bleep][bleep][bleep][bleep]ty. No dice for me...

Hey Hank, can you please post your entire system specs so that I can compare to mine to see where the issue might be. Really weird man, everything worked fine on my one year old Mac Mini...

My computer is a late 2013 Mac Pro, there are 2 displays (Apple Thunderbolt). I have 4 Artist devices: 2 Mix, 1 Control and 1 Transport. I am working with OS X 10.10.1, EuControl 3.2.1 and Logic 10.1.0.

Do you need something else to know?
