No Artist Mix on EuControl Surfaces Tab

[CajunKev]

Hi all,

I have two Artist Mix surfaces that previously worked fine. I recently bought a new Mac Studio Ultra and migrated from my prior MacBook Pro installation. I'm running the same cables I was using before to the same network switch I was using before as well as the same cable to connect the switch to the computer.

No matter what I do I cannot see either Artist Mix on the Surfaces tab of EuControl Settings:
- I'm running the latest version of MacOS - 12.6.
- I updated EuControl to the latest (Sept. 2022) version.
- I fully uninstalled and reinstalled EuControl 2022.9 several times.
- I ran the Discovery Bonjour app and saw nothing there for EuControl; I changed my computer name and then was able to see some EuControl information. With Logic Pro X running, it added a few more lines - screenshot attached.
- I haven't yet tried to run to a Thunderbolt dock on the way to the computer. Is this really necessary?

Sure would appreciate some help on getting these fine devices running.

Thanks so much!
Kevin

Most likely it is the Security settings in Monterey blocking Eucontrol. Make sure both Eucontrol and MC Client have Accessibility privileges in the Security/Privacy tab in System Preferences.

Good call BScout. I struggled with the exact same thing first few hours of setting up my Artist mix with eucontrol. Never thought about it since.

Try this..

A workaround we think fixes the issue is to change your computer name and reboot. It can be just one character. This is done in System Preferences->Sharing.
Don’t use the Edit button, just change it right in the Computer Name field then tab out of it.

There was an issue with migration and Bonjour. I’m not sure if it was fixed with .9 release.

Another possibility is Eucon doesn’t like the 10Gb Ethernet connection on the Mac Studio. I vaguely remember that being an issue for some.

Here’s the thread.

There is also voodoo.

These are issues with MacOS not PT or EUCON. The migration tool is buggy, the 10GB port doesn't like 100mb connections, there's a bug in the accessibility settings that shows EUCON apps(and others) allowed but they are not really.

Fixes are:

• renaming the computer - Bonjour connection issues
• remove the EUCON apps from the accessibility settings, reboot and add them back - keyboard short cut issues
• Don't use the 10gb port - Connection issues, doesn't support 100mb anymore
