Default Eucon, Artist Control and mouse.

Hi. Just registered today.
Bought an Avid Artist Control and it arrived this morning.
Took hours of messing for it to recognise Logic X on my iMac. Now it finally has done, I am finding that using the artist control is just so slow and unresponsive.
I have however found that moving my mouse seems to clear the bottle neck, freeing up the artist control to be used again. After it is used again (pressing 'soft keys' on the screen), same thing. Bottleneck and the mouse needs to be moved for the artist control to update and respond

iMac is
27-inch, Late 2012
Processor 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB
Software OS X 10.9 (13A603)

Hard disks are
USB3 4TB Mybook Studio for time machine backup
Thunderbolt 6TB Mybook Duo mirror raid using apple disk utility.

Bluetooth mouse and keyboard

Logic X latest version.

I know I am using Mavericks but it’s a new iMac (bought just before the product refresh) and it came with it.
Anyway, interesting that the mouse seems to be causing a bottle neck. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

I'm not a mac user but a few users have mentioned this prevent app nap option. Worth a try.
yes, that seems to have done trick.
Had to reboot for it to take. still not recognising the artist control on boot unless i stop the eucon in system preferences then start it again.

I'm still seeming to have this problem with the control surface not responding unless i move my mouse. I'm running Eucon 3.1.2 that was suppose to fix the app nap. I'm using a wireless mouse and keyboard but i'm thinking that shouldn't cause this problem. Any ideas?!

Thanks!

i tried rebooting, reconnecting eucon through system prefs, and it seemed to be working ok and was responsive for about a minute then it just got bogged down again and goes back to only responding when i move my mouse... very frustrating.

i've also noticed that, typically, if i close all my editing apps and wait a few minutes. the control surface starts responding very well as it just controls whatever window is open; like Finder or Safari, etc.

Yes same problem here. Well you wouldn't imagine that a wireless mouse and the Artist and MC Control would be a rare combination
How come so many bugs in DAWS are not sorted out and corrected?

Hi all - I am also having this problem since a Mavericks update with eucontrol 3.1.2, and it seems many others. Has anyone found a solution? Here is a thread with others with the same problem:
