Win 10 and Frontier Tranzport - Works OK

FWIW
I have the latest Win 10 Preview version 10130 installed.  Testing, Sonar Platinum and my Roland Studio Capture work OK in Win 10.  I just installed my Frontier Tranzport, in a Windows 7 compatibility mode, and it checks out OK in Sonar.  The last drivers issued for the Tranzport were Vista drivers.
 
Microsoft must be getting close to the "final" Windows 10 version.  I have a triple boot system, Win 7, Win 8.1 and Win 10 Preview.  In all prior Win 10 Preview versions, in the OS boot selection menu it was listed as "Windows 10 Preview".  With the latest 10130 version it is now just listed as "Windows 10".
 
 

Das goood ya know.
 
Thanks for telling.

Thanks for this.  Don't know if or when I'll move to Win10 but I can't live without my Tranzport!

Tranzport is awesome (never had problems, now with win10 x64).
 
Very useful.

Still working fine here since I installed Win 10 last Summer. Using SONAR Platinum x64 (currently Lexington).
 
Cheers,

Agreed. The Tranzport is a great device and I'm glad I got my hands on one before Frontier disappeared.

I'm so fond of the TranzPort I have an extra NOS in the closet should anything happen to it!

Nice. I don't have that luxury, but I do take extra care with the one I have and I've got a case for it if it ever leaves the studio, which is never.

So, for those of you that have fully settled into Windows 10 x64 is the Frontier TranzPort device driver still working well with SONAR Platinum?  This is on my list of important things to think about in considering the move from Win 7 x64 to Win 10 x64.  Thanks!

yup works fine as does Presonus Faderport.

I just made the move to windows 10 on a new hardware platform (fresh install) and can't get the TranzPort to work.  When I load the latest driver from their site, it responds that it is not compatible with this version of Windows.  I really like this unit and would hate to have to give it up.  Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'll give that a try, thanks!

 
 
I could not for the life of me get the 64 bit  1.31 version version to work on my windows 10  (64)- computer - no matter what the compatibility mode 
 
 
but I did get the windows 1.50 version  version to work in windows 7 mode - first try -- of course that was after I spent over an hour trying to install the the 1.31 
 
 
anyway - it works and I am in windows 10 64 bit

I am running Sonar X1 on Windows 10 version 10.0.15063 Build 15063.
I have tried compatibility mode and I am unable to get the Tranzport to work. When I install the driver and then try to bring it up in the control surfaces menu, Transport shows up with brackets around it and it does not work. Can any body help me? I love my Tranzport and I need to use it during my concerts. If some body finds a workaround, please upload step by step instructions. I am not computer illiterate but I am not familiar with Windows 10 either.

Hey all - on an related topic, since I'm still using my trusty old Tranport on Windows 10...
 
Anyone know if there is a way to make the PLAY button work as PAUSE?  Right now, play and stop basically do the same thing, where I'd like to have stop be stop and play be pause.  It seems that all of the other keys can be modified, but not the transport keys - the irony here being that the device is called a transport. :)
 
Anyway, I'd be more likely to use it more and lose my Countour Shuttle, which has its own issues.  I really actually like the transport and forwad/back knob on the PCR800, but it's not very conveniently located or ergonomically efficient, where the Contour sits right next to the mouse.
 
Gosh - I hate that vendors create great pieces of equipment that last far beyond the software they made to support hem -especially when I imagine that it is pretty easy to update these things for the few things that would make them so much better:
 
Tranzport - customizable transport buttons
Countour Shuttle - customizable ring/wheel (for beats instead of measures) - used to have a plugin, now does not (as of the whole 8.5 departure), so all settings are in some outside Sonar Global app to control it in other applications where I never use the thing and when Sonar loses focus, it doesn't work at all.
PCR-800 - with Windows 10 drivers without having to resort to a series of developer mode driver hacks to get it installed at all
 
And so many others.  Can't they just open this stuff up to open source if they are not interested in maintaining it?
