X1 and V-studio 100

Hi,


Is there a guide to set these two up somewhere. My control surface is no longer lighting up or operating like it used to since my upgrade...


Thanks

Nope, it doesn't. I just bought VS-100, set up the Audio driver correctly, assigned VS-100 as the only Control Surface that is available to my Sonar X2 PE, and the Control Surface area within the Hardware Unit does not responds correctly to anything that I touch. The Transport Control buttons are not lit, and when I press "Play" (or any other button within the "Control Surface area of the unit) I can only hear a MIDI note being triggered from my Kerzweil PC3x workstation.
 
I have double checked the Firmware version and it is a current one 1.50. So there is no need to update the firmware. I am trying to implement this VS-100 into my home studio environment where I run everything based on Windows 7 Utlimate 64-bit, with i7 Intel Processor, 12GB of RAM, Kurzweil PC3x workstation, and Sonar X2 Producer Edition.
 
I have read the Hardware Manual and the Gettin Started Manual, and there is nothing written about this particular problem I am facing within the Troubleshooting sections either. Since the similar problem was addressed by others (pressing a transport button actually triggers a MIDI note from your hardware synth connected to Sonar = no Transport function is being executed) I wonder if anybody came up with some kind of solution.
 
Based on the Hardware Manual of VS-100, after succesful instalation of the driver and proper assignment of the Control Surface within Sonar, the unit should perform without any problems, and when you press "Play" on VS-100 the current Sonar's project should act accordingly by starting the Playbak of the Project. Right?
 
So, is there anybody out there who has experienced such problems and found a solution for it? Thanks much for your help.

I’m not at my PC so this is from memory when you add the Controller/Surface make sure your InPort and OutPort show Control VS-100 not midi VS-100.

you need to go in to preferences/midi/control surfaces.
you need to add this device under your control surfaces, click the little start (this means new surface)
in the drop down list select: "vs-100"

if this has already been complete than you need to select the routing options for he control surface in this same screen.
a little drop down arrow next to the name of the unit: vs-100
select :daw control under both.


if you go in to your programfiles folder/ Roland you will see 3 pdf files in there, each explains use, presets and set up.
