Re: 3.01 still not working?
I'm just doing straight mixing in PT11, no ReWire or VI stuff. (You can see the Gypsy system profile below.) I just keep the EuControl 3.0.1 Installer disc image mounted or nearby, and whenever I start up Pro Tools I just run the thing again. Takes a few more keystrokes and is somewhat annoying, but it gets me up and working in less than a minute.
Not ideal, but in my case functional. Now I need a Control to be able to hot switch between fader setups (like I can on the ICON). Peter

Boot computer, and wait for it to completely load EuCon evidenced by the dark EuCon icon in the system tray! Power each unit one by one leaving enough time for EuCon to discover the unit before I try to power on the next! I leave about three seconds after I see the computer monitor screen flash indicating the unit has been discovered and claimed by my DAW! I power the units in this order: Control, Mix, and then the Transport! All units are properly claimed by the DAW 100% of the time, and do not also show as available on the network! Now, if I can only figure out the scenario that is causing EuCon to crash after I close Cubase and then immediately try to power down one of the units... I could then report a repeatable procedure that might help the EuCon team in their debugging efforts! I suspect that there are still processes running in the background after I have exited Cubase, and that more time is needed for these processes to clear, before EuCon knows it is safe to disengage with the units.

Re: 3.01 still not working?
I had the same problem, Artist Mix 3.0 was not working right.
Adding Pro Tools in my Systempreverences - Eucon solved the Problem. Now working great! cheers |

Re: 3.01 still not working?
I very seldom write replies here, but here's what is working almost all of the time for me:
It seems in my case, I have the most consistent work if I start the Artist controllers, then start the computer, then start Pro Tools and then start Eucontrol. If that fails, usually just restarting Eucontrol at that point will work. It takes a couple of minutes for all to connect, but it seems pretty solid once it does. For this particular application I am in PT 11 HD, on a MacBook Pro 17" 2011 with 10.8.4. I use a switch when I have multiple Artist devices. I recently also started with the Belkin thunderbolt express dock and it seems to make no difference to the controllers.

Also, could someone post the link to the Eucon 3.0.1 update, can't seem to find it in the usual places. |

Re: 3.01 still not working?
Unfortunately, none of the suggestions here have helped me (and from what I can see, others either). And still no word from AVID - no way I'm paying for customer support for such a common issue. Might just have to stick with 2.71 or sell this thing.

Re: 3.01 still not working?
We have solved our drop-outs by doing the following:
Start computer (Mac OSX) Start EuCon 3.01 Start the Artist units one at a time Starting PT11HD/10HD after the spinning E and all 4 units connected The reason beeing that Eucon is NOT on autostart anymore as we manually start that when computer is fully booted up. Best Regards Christopher

Re: 3.01 still not working?
Are you saying that it shouldn't be auto-started? Mine is still part of the auto-start. When I turn on my Artist Mix, EuControl shows that it is connected. It is just that none of my DAW programs recognize it.
I switched back to 2.71 and of course, Cubase 7.5 and Logic X work perfectly well with it along with PT 10. Surprising that PT 11 refuses to work with that version of EuCon at all considering other brand new DAW versions do... |

Re: 3.01 still not working?
Hi - thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, that did not work. Cubase 7.5, Logic X, and PT 11 did not interact with the Artist Mix at all. Reinstalled 2.71 again and everything worked fine (it is much more robust too) - except with PT11 of course. Unless AVID supports EuCon 2.71 or truly fixes 3.0 in PT11, I think my only option is to sell PT11 and the Artist Mix. Very disappointing.
