Your first intuition was right, I somehow had not put in the timer action, I know I had it in there when I was first experimenting with it, but somehow left it off when I ported it over to my main MCU setup. Now it works much better. A bit unstable as you say with regards to some plugins and whether Sonar/Act seem to be exposing the controls, and I understand that much of that has to do with buggy underlying code... but actually it works remarkably well now that I put the timer function back in. So, cool!

For PreSonus FaderPort owners:
 
In cooperation with Watercourse we have almost finished Faderport preset:
http://www.azslow.com/index.php/topic,163.0.html
 
Highlights:

• Focus and WAI follow device and device follows focus (also for buses)
• ACT "Quick dial"
• Hi/Low resolution for encoder (Pan and ACT)
• Time jogging (using encoder)
• Shortcuts to set Loop In/Out points

And as with everything else in AZ Controller, you can change/remove/add any functionality.

Tried to register on your site but I never received the activation email, nor the two others that I had the forum software resend.
Any help?

I have just tried myself and I have received the confirmation e-mail immediately. Have you checked your spam folder?
 
In any case, you can also ask something here (on in PM) till we find some solution.

PM sent.
 

And answered
 
For other. There is no "for users only" section on my forum and I do not ask to register to download the plug-in.
 
Awesome, free, not calling home program from site without adverts and Russian owner. Sounds suspicious, I know

Hello Azslow3,
 
I wanted to thank you for the Zed preset ( if I did not earlier) . This is working very well for me at this time. I have another (2) project request if I may. One of the studios has acquired a A&H QU 24.  While I believe this can probably be setup with normal Cakewalk General CS and ACT, for me your plugin offers more "flexibility". If this is doable let me know please and I will assist in any way needed.
Secondly, Is if feasible to add HUI translation capability.. Would this be something that can be requested as an enhancement. I personally feel the work you are doing is extremely relevant and am offering support to you in that regard. Let me know what you think and thanks. ... Again.

Hello LunaTech,
 
I am glad you still use the preset for zed.
 
After first look at QU-24 documentation, I see the following. It is more targeted to be remotely controlled then control DAW, but it can. They provide complete MIDI specification, which is nice. I do not see they transfer everything they can, for example they do not transfer "Fader touched" and fader resolution is just MIDI.
 
I do not understand your question about HUI. The device itself is not HUI capable and Sonar is not able to understand HUI. They have software translator on Mac for other DAWs, but such translator on Windows is not going to help with Sonar integration.
 
I am a bit busy these days, but something basic like ZED preset (with adopted number of controls and Fader/LED feedback) can be done quickly. In any case there are going to be some try/error/fix cycles, I mean I doubt it will work instantly since I do not have anything comparable for checks. Do you have time and possibility to test the preset and describe problems?

Hi Azslow3,
 
Of course .. I will see how far I can get and then follow up. The HUI issue was more of an "outside the scope" of Sonar question about enhancing the reach of the plugin.  With that said.. as stated I will see what I can do and report back. Thanks.

I have tried to understand QU24 MIDI specification, again and again, without success
 
So, I have created a thread on my forum: http://www.azslow.com/index.php/topic,178.0.html
In general I want to understand what you can see QU is sending. There must be some NRPNs from faders, according to the specification with just MIDI (127) resolution. But the number you see in lower position should be not 0 but 7. Just write what you see, I think that should help me.
 
About HUI and my plug-in. The plug-in is written specially for Sonar. It can not be used with any other DAW, it can not be used "stand alone", by design. I guess it can work with HUI devices, but that is not tested.
