...unable to communicate with HUI...

[ProTools_Seb]

Hi!

Following mistake-message:
Pro Tools is unable to connect with HUI. Power-cycle HUI and check its connections. Note , if HUI ist not in use, update the Peripherals dialog to prevent further warnings.

ProTools 8, Yamaha 02R96, M-Audio ProFire Lightbridge

Can anybody help me solving? Faderremote works nut that's all! After a few seconds the message occurs.

Thanks

Yeah, go to SetUp/Peripheral/Midi and you see, I think 4 spots each with drop downs.. Click the first dropdown and click HUI, then in the next two dropdowns, under predefined, I think it is, you should see your hardware listed.. Click on it in both drop downs, and then add how many tracks in the next dropdowns, click OK and you're ready to go..

Hi!
Thats exactly what I did - under win and mac I can remote the faders and under mac also the TC ins transmitted to the mixer.

But nothing else - thats my problem!

Hi!

Now I reached to controll my faders etc. / only the Machine Control on my Yamaha 02r96 VCM doesn`t work anyway.

I Connected USB-MIDI-Channels 1,2,3 in the Preripheral Setup. If I connect channel 4, too i get alswas the message:

"Pro Tools is unable to communicate with HUI. Power-cycle HUI and check its connechtions. Note, if HUI is not in use, ..."

Who can help me, please!???

I have had this problem with my mackie universal pro controller and my extender. Try this. In the menu options go to setup/midi/midi beat clock...uncheck the box of the usb port that the controller is linked to.

Freakin eh 4times. I also have Mackie Univ Pro and 2 exts and am able to use it but it takes a long time to settle down (Mack channels continually flashing) once I change/open a PT project. I also find the OP msg if my Yamaha Motif 8 is not on. Like the Mackie is using the Yamaha Midi driver. And I have to use a high value for HW buffer when I use it or I get that other annoying error msg. I have decided on not using my Mackie for PT. It does work very well for Ableton Live and Reason.
