M-POWERED (new) ONLY 2 INPUTS
Hello,
I've just bought PT M-Powered and am having a few issues with it. I was running MBox 2 prior to this without any problems at all from my PC. My chipset is a Pentium P45G, which is compatible according to the Digidesign site, and I've had no problems for a year using it with MBox2. I'm using M-Powered with an M-Audio Delta 1010LT soundcard. The 1010LT works fine with other recording programmes, with all 8 available inputs working. When I launch PT M-Powered, there are only 2 inputs and SPDIF available, when there should be 8 inputs plus SPDIF. I've downloaded the latest drivers for the Delta 1010LT and also installed the latest update for M-Powered from the Digidesign site - (7.3.1cs3 I think it is - it's the latest one available on the site anyway.) M-Powered was able to play back sessions I'd recorded with MBox2 LE, so that seems to be ok - I haven't tried recording in M-Powered yet. Can anyone tell me how to fix the problem of the inputs, as I obviously bought it so I can record 8 tracks at the same time. Also, an MBox2 session I loaded into M-Powered played the Audio tracks ok, but I had drum tracks with BFD Lite on an instrument track and they're not playing - BFD Lite is still installed on my PC - do I need to do something to be able to use it in M-Powered? Thanks in advance...

Re: M-POWERED (new) ONLY 2 INPUTS
Sounds like you only need to open your I/O Setup window and click the default button on all the tabs.
If you are opening sessions that were started on the MBox, the I/O Settings will be set for the mBox. However, it should prompt you when you open the session that the I/O Settings have changed/are different. Are you getting those pop ups? Are you ignoring them?

Re: M-POWERED (new) ONLY 2 INPUTS
Thanks SPK....stupid of me to not have thought of it.
I read a lot of your replies to other posts, and it's great to see you sharing your knowledge...thanks. A while ago I saw a link you posted showing how to colour whole chanel strips in the PT 7.3 Mixer window....I couldn't see it on your Newb link above....where can I find that tute?

Make sure you are holding down all three modifier keys when you click and hold the mouse and drag over the color palette.

Re: M-POWERED (new) ONLY 2 INPUTS
Cool...the colouring worked...I did the same as before but at least now it works.
A very useful tool when visually grouping tracks in the Mixer, which becomes a vortex when it's all grey...fantastic...
