<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Again, I'll try that, but, I'm told that isn't a
good idea. I'll do it though. I'm confused though on one
thing. If I do that under midi devices, then, do I still need it added as
well under control surfaces?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Guys, I genuinely hope that no one takes
offense to this joke, and if you do, let me preempt my message below by
saying I profusely! apologize, but you'd think I just finnished kemo therapy
over here, as my hair's all gone after pulling it all out. No,
seriously, here's the situation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I have a Presonus Faderport control
surface. I'm not gonna mention names, but a friend of mine actually
recommended it for use in Logic Pro X, and ProTools on my mac. We'll
just say that in PT it works great, but everyone else is proving to be
disastrous!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Anyway, I installed the drivers and ran the
updated firmware to the unit. That all went completely
smoothely. In fact, I might have even fixed it where it now works
correctly on Logic, but that's neither here nor there. By the way,
I've not proven that totally yet, but I have some suspitions. Anyway,
you can write me off list about that if you want to.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Anyhow, back to Reaper, I went after installing
the drivers/firmware update and popped open Reaper. BTW, I just
downloaded the most up to date installer last night, so I know it's totally
updated. that isn't the issue. Anyway, I went into Reaper, hit
CTRL+P, went down in the tree view to Control Surfaces, clicked on add, and
selected the Presonus Faderport, then hit OK. Then I closed the
preferences.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Now, nothing's working on the surface from
within Reaper. I can get it to work perfectly all day long in ProTools
on my mac, but not in Reaper on my Windows XP machine.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I've literally just spent the last hour and a
half Googling, and reading forum thread after forum thread to absolutely no
ends, and have come up empty handed every dawg gone time.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers,
I've reflashed the firmware several times, I've unplugged and replugged both
the USB and the power cord. It's not a USB cable going bad issue, as
again, it works fine in PT 12.4 extremely rock solidly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I've tried moving the motorized fader, I've
tried my transport buttons like play/stop, absolutely nothing! I even
went so far as to try isolating the problem to see if it was an XP issue, or
maybe the fact I'm running X86 hardware, and not X64, but that isn't the
case. I tried on my Windows 10 laptop, which normally, I'd not use for
recording, but just for the hell of it, I did try, and even over there, with
UAC disabled, and me having full root admin access, it still! didn't
work.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Yes, I did hit applications key, and try
running Reaper as Administrator, and yes, I have tried installing the
Faderport again by running as Administrator. It should already be
doing that by default, but just in case, I wanted to be sure. No
go.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I looked in the pdf manual to the Faderport,
but I see absolutely nothing! zilch! Nada! That says anything
about it not working in Windows, let alone! in Windows XP.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>In fact, lots of my Google searches are turning
up people who apparently have done it just fine on XP Pro SP3, which is
precisely what I'm using with JAWS 15. Yes, I do have NVDA as well,
not that that matters.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I'm totally out of options. I honest to
God don't know what the heck is left to try. I don't exactly need! a
control surface with Reaper, but it sure would make my mixing way way
easier!</FONT></DIV>
