Using an Edirol PCR-300 as a keyboard and MIDI control surface. Any luck

In the manual for the Edirol it lists 8 or 10 templates for Logic and then doesn't go on to say exactly what they do. I tried adding the PCR from the list of supported surfaces but it's not there.
There is some instruction in the PCR manual to open the Audi0o Midi data manager and create nodes with connections, but I'n not sure exactly what the point of that is supposed to be.
After doing some digging I found something that that the Edirol had to be supported in Mackie emulation mode. I recently did some major problematic upgrades and lots of this appear to be lost. I don't know which Mackie mode it supports. My guess it would be HUI, because unlike the MCU the Edirol isn't really bidirection is this correct?
I think I had it working before the upgrade, but now I've got the old problem back. I can get the control surface to sort of work and then when I touch a regular key the whole screen goes crazy with windows popping up and down then disappearing.
I think for some reason the Edirol is sending out messages that are telling Logic to frequently cycle through screen sets. I did think I had figured out this problem once before after diligent searching, but I forgot how I did it.
Any ideas on how to get the Edirol PCR-300 to play well with Logic?

Yes I have installed the drivers as the PCR 300 works with Logic 8.

  • Edirol PCR-300 control maps

    Do you know where I can find a control map for Edirol PCR-300 / Logic 8?
    The edirol site (http://www.edirol.net/downloads/en/PCR/index_PCR-800.html) stopped listing new versions and the one for Logic 7 doesn't work for Logic 8.

    Did you ever find any?
    I have had no luck. I had to manually add my settings in, but I have all the transport controls and pan/vol etc mapped.

  • Losing keyboard and mouse control

    Hi I use LogMeIn rescue, on windows 8 64bit. most of the time I can connect fine to my customers systems, some work in the same office some work in different offices, some work from home. Connection is fine through the VPN and across the internet. But nearly always, about 5mins into the session I lose keyboard and mouse control. I can still view the remote desktop and can message them instructions on what to do. Sometimes mouse and keyboard come back. Anyone seen this before? We use Cisco Anyconnect as the local firewall, and AT&T VPN. CheersSi

    Oh yes, I have the same issue when using the rescue console and online

  • I'm using the latest version of firefox, but unable to print any downloads. I've tried using the print icon on the downloaded form and also control P

    I've tried using the print icon on the downloaded form and also control P, but only get a blank page. I've even changed printers, but it didn't help. My print menu looks the same and I do not have trouble printing anything else, only with downloaded files.

    If you cannot see any content on pages you printed or in print preview, the cause might be margins which are set too high.
    #In order to check the margins, we need to go to ''File'' > ''Page Setup''.
    #Once this is done, switch to the ''Margins & Header/Footer'' tab.
    #Check what's set there under ''Margins''.
    The following are the default values for ''Margins'':
    '''Right''': 12.7
    '''Top''': 12.7
    '''Left''': 12.7
    '''Bottom''': 12.7
    Check these values accordingly and change them if necessary.

  • I have tried several published methods for using umlauts but none have worked.  I have used the IPad 2 with the screen keyboard and the Logitech keyboard, all to no avail.

    I have tried several methods for using umlauts but none have worked.  These include the screen keyboard and a Logitech  keyboard.  I tried pressing and holding an o for several seconds then (while holding the o down, pressed the o umlaut in the pop-up screen with no results.

    Instead of using a second finger to press the umlaut while holding down the o key try this:
    Tap and hold on the o until you see the alternate choices then slide your finger up to the umlaut.

  • I have a MacBookPro running 10.6.8. I use Bluetooth to link to devices including keyboard and magic trackpad. I bought a Bose Wave III stereo and a bluetooth device. No problem with iPhone, iPad, wife's MacBook. Not working for me. Thoughts?

    I keep receiving an errror message that "there was an error with the device." I use bluetooth for all sorts of things, no problem. Anyone have any suggestions?Because the stereo is connecting no problem to every other device, I'm assuming there's an issue between my laptop and the stereo. Thanks.

    Apple might fix the problem with SL; they did release the 10.6.8 Supplemental Update, which fixed an HDMI problem. So we might get a fix.
    Don't know if this problem affects Lion. I haven't read much about it, since I'm not upgrading for another few months.

  • HT1752 I have an old iMac (the rounded type with monitor).  I need a new keyboard and mouse.  Will any work?  thanks for any help!

    I have an old iMac for 2002....it's the rounded type that has an attached monitor.  The software is way outdated (OS X 10) and I only really use now to access 3,000 plus songs and old video of the family.  Both the keyboard and mouse no longer work.  Am I able to use any keyboard/mouse and plug in using USB?  Thanks for any help!

    Most any USB mouse or keyboard should work. Borrow one if you can and just plug it in.
    If the USB circuits are at fault then you can access via Firewire Target Mode with another Mac in order to get at the files.

    Another alternative would be to remove the hard drive and use a USB adapter to access it as an external  drive.

  • Keyboard and Mouse Control

    I'm pretty new to Java, but I'm curious on this.
    Is there a way to use Java to "push" keys on the keyboard, or to "move" and "click" the mouse?
    If so, what should I already know, and what do I need to look at to accomplish such tasks?

    The Robot class does pretty much what I asked, except one thing.
    If I run a command line program designed to move the mouse, the command prompt (seemingly) has to be on top for it to move it. Is there any way around this?I bet this is one of those things you were warned about "not getting too excited about just yet".
    That would open the door for security violations and make it even easier for processes such as "key loggers" or other invasions of input. If your app doesn't have focus, it certainly has no business stealing away the input from my other app I am using the keyboard and/or mouse to input things.

  • Can't adust the volume using keyboard and remote control

    Hi
    i have macbook Pro like two weeks and a strange thing happened today. I just can not adjust volume up or down using the F3 F4 F5 keys, must go to preferences and adjust manually. The apple remote control does not change the volme neither. When pressing the relevant key the pop up window appears but nothing happens it does not react and a small not available - restricted icon appears in the bottom of pop up. Please help.

    Reset PRAM:
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    3. Turn on the computer.
    4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound (bong) for the second time.
    6. Release the keys.

  • If I use an SD card for both Windows 7 and Mac, is there any way to see the documents from the Mac sight while on the windows side?

    If I use an SD Card on both the windows 7 and Mac OS (using bootcamp), is there any way to see the data seen on the Mac OS side while using the Windows OS?

    Windows Aero style uses a different background image than Mac:
    Windows Aero:
    #nav-bar {
    background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(253,253,253,0.45), rgba(255,255,255,0));
    Mac:
    #nav-bar {
    background: url(chrome://browser/skin/Toolbar-background-noise.png),
    linear-gradient(hsl(0,0%,93%), hsl(0,0%,83%));
    I can't test hands on, but you might be able to clear that OSX "fog" using a rule such as:
    @namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
    #nav-bar, #PersonalToolbar {
    background-image: none !important;
    background-color: transparent !important;
    This could be applied using the Stylish extension or by creating/editing a userChrome.css file.

  • Why won't PS CC 2014 fully open and run?  Has been a problem for about two months and previously all was OK.  Using same machine (iMac running 10.9.5) and have not changed any settings or provided add-ons.

    I am new to this.  My question is as per the header line.

    Ok, I was hoping it would be simple. Next to try are Plugins, Permissions, and Fonts.
    If you have no third party Font managers, or plugins, this might be easier. Then you would repair permissions and check your system fonts.

    MY keyboard has stopped working on my iMac I bought a brand new one and the keys work but the volume buttons do not operate the volume I've changed it twice now and the same thing is still happening

    What is the make & model number of the keyboard?
    You could get a keyboard remapping program & map someother key to the volumn key.
    There is a list of them in this thread.

  • Control surface with keyboard controller

    I'm fairly new to Logic and sequencing (but not Macs) so I'm on a steep learning curve.
    I set up Logic with a Yamaha 01x as an interface and control surface. That's working o.k (after some dramas). I play software synths with an Edirol PCR controller keyboard. What I want to do dedicate the 01x to sequencer and mixing duties and assign the keyboard knobs and sliders to soft synth controls, (preferably globally - as in not plug-in by plug-in). When I try to use the learn function on a soft synth it doesn't want to take the assignment. It flashes the name of the keyboard briefly then reverts back to the name of the 01x port. I'm thinking it has something to do with the fact the keyboard is a separate USB midi interface. Whatever it is, I don't know where to find a set-up page for the keyboard or the combination of the keyboard and the 01x. Funny thing is, setting up my keyboard is so easy in MainStage which is part of the same software suite.
    I can't find anything in the manual that deals with this sort of hardware controller combination. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I still can't get this working so I am posting some more information in case someone can see a glaring hole in my logic (pun definitely intended).
    I have tried setting up controller assignments in both the Logic preferences and by the learn function within the plug-ins. My keyboard is a USB MIDI interface but it is not seen as a control surface by Logic. (As you say, Bee Jay, that's a good thing). It is sending out notes and controller messages on its own discrete port, port 1 (of two), channel 1. The synths in MainStage can see my keyboard and my control surface just fine. I can't see why it should be any different with Logic? Certain controllers always work (pitch bend, mod wheel pan volume and aftertouch). I have not been able to assign any of the other controls of any soft synth. Even if I set the soft synth destination to receive a source I know the keyboard is putting out (I can see it on the transport bar input display), it still doesn't work the control. I've tried deleting all "learned" controllers and starting again - Many times now.
    Needless to say, I'm getting to that stage. . .
