Well, if you're prepared to uninstall Jaws 16, install 15 then 16 again
you'll be good as long as it's 15 that you run when
You've got SurfaceReader active. A fix is way overdue, but work commitments
have taken all of my time. I'm currently in a situation where I can try and
get this done and make this silly issue go away for good.
Best wishes.

Hi Tim, You say this will not work with Jaws 16? This is what I'm running on
my machine. I'm also using the Saffire Pro 40.

James

James,
I'm afraid I don't have an XTouch, but I know that it supports Mackie
protocol and, given Phil's comment about the number of buttons, I think
you'll be OK. Always interested in feedback, though.
Best wishes.

Tim, I wish you would have posted this earlier. I just bought a Touch X
yesterday. Do you have one of these to work with? If not, then I would like
to work with you on finding out for myself if it will work or not. Can you
email me off list so we can talk about this?
If you think this will take some time, then I can try to go with something
that is a little user friendly.
Best:
James

Hi,
Just to add to this, the amount of access possible is determined by the
control surface protocol being used. If you're comparing the Mackie Control
Universal/Pro to the BCF2000/XTouch in Sonar/Samplitude, then you'll almost
certainly configure the units to use the Mackie Control protocol. This means
that the information being made available will be the same, regardless of
the specific hardware being used. Any differences will be down to whether
the physical device offers a complete set of buttons, etc. in order to
trigger the maximum number of responses from the DAW. The MCU, by
definition, has a full set of buttons, V-Pots and faders to implement the
Mackie Control protocol, the BCF2000 has a cut-down set of controls and I've
not tested an XTouch, so can't comment.
The other vital point to realise is that, for any given protocol, the amount
of feedback to be gained from any given DAW is down to the programmer(s) who
wrote the protocol driver for that DAW. For example, Sonar's Mackie Control
protocol implementation is very good indeed and sends lots of text data to
the display on a Mackie-compliant device (even if that device doesn't have a
physical screen, as with the BCF2000). This means that we get a lot of
feedback with Sonar. However, Reaper's default Mackie protocol driver is
pathetic and we get almost nothing of value, despite the fact that we're
using the same hardware and protocol as in Sonar.
OSC is a completely different protocol and is not available for the Mackie
units (at least to my knowledge - I'd love to be wrong) and I'm not sure if
Can's OSC client can take advantage of user-generated XML device
definitions, or whether it's currently limited to the RME units. I'd really
like some clarification on that point - I'm a big fan of this application
and, if it's generic, it's even more exciting.
Best wishes.

Mike, that's being explored right now, no definite answer yet on which would
provide better accessibility.
The question is if anyone has tried either of these units with Tim's surface
reader, if they even work under that program.
Just so we cover all corners and all areas lol.
But as of now, nobody (at least on this list) has said, (or at least I
certainly haven't), that the Behringer would provide more accessibility than
the Mackie, or that the Mackie would provide more than the Behringer. As we
all know, options are wonderful things, and thus I'm exploring these now, as
I'd personally like to know, and I'm sure some of my clients could benefit
from the info as well ;)
Once I find anything out I'll let you guys know.
Regards, DJX

Hey DGX, it's Mike let me get this straight so if I want more accessibility
features I should go with the Behringer instead of having my mackie
