Gustabo, I'll take $30 for it. 1 minor scratch on the slider silk screening, otherwise it's unused. I have the disk for it, but recommend downloading the latest driver directly from Presonus, as I did. If you're still interested, get back with me and we'll make arrangements.

Cool, Dude!! I'm glad somebody had some luck with this product. I'm gonna go crazy and buy a Mackie MCU with 2 extensions and a C4. To hell with Presonus. They apparently don't take Cakewalk seriously (the way WE do)

Gustabo, (and all others) I also have a brand new Akai MPD32 for sale (NEVER used). I paid full price for it from Musicians Friend 3 months ago and decided to use something different. Shoot me a bid and we'll make a deal!

Sorry for the delay guys. I'm going by memory here since I'm not at my DAW.

After you install the Faderport files, the DLL file can be found in "C:\Program Files\PreSonus\FaderPort\FaderPort Dll".  Copy Faderport.DLL file to the "C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared Surfaces" folder.  

Make sure Sonar is closed, and then invoke the Run Command by using the Windows key and and "R" key. Then type:  

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared Surfaces\faderport.dll"  

Finally, you'll click OK and you'll see a message that confirms the DllRegisterServer was successful. 

Now you can go through the normal steps In Sonar to add the Faderport MIDI ports and control surface. The manual in the latest Presonus FaderPort download includes a section that is dedicated to a Sonar installation.

I copied the dll to the shared plugin folder, but when i enter regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared Surfaces\faderport.dll"
It says The module C/program files/cakewalk/sharedsurfaces/faderport.dll failed to load. make sure the binaryis stored yada yada yada
 
Using win 7 i7 64bit with Sonar32bit. Faderport driver are up to date and it can be seen in sonars MIDI menu

I think this is about the same message I got, in this tread:
http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.aspx?high=&m=2019324&mpage=1#2371536
Workaround: I actually had to reinstall the whole OS...
 
I did not get the rights to do the registry change. (and yes, I did run as administrator :))
Seemed to be something about the .net part, if you google the error message you can find alot of other program/games which has the same problem. I think I found a fair amount of MS Flight Simulator problems I think?

Wow and thanks.. Im not going to install my OS again and load a few days of programs onto it again. Its cheaper for me to sell my faderport and get something else.

Anyone want to buy a faderport dirt cheap? $40 and its yours :)

Yo CJ

Last year you wrote you were using the FP as transport only with 8.5.

Does it still work with 8.5?  Is it just a SX thang?

Could it be you need the .net update?

It worked with 8.5.3 and when i upgraded to X1, it stopped working (i cant get it to work)

The presonus forum had some advice to install the version 1.2 firmware. This fixed a bunch of issues for use with PT, FL, Logic, and Studio 1,...  Nothing specific about SX.

Recommended is to install the 1.2 software and firmware. And then install the 1.3.5 software ONLY.

Gonna test it now. Hopefully it will fix the project-not-opening-when-faderport-is-connected annoyance.

Took a few times to get the correct buttons to flash per the instructions. Including a reboot.

Worked in many projects and then went nutty when opening a big project.  I will try later after a cold boot.

An important part:  the FP should NOT be connected when installing driver, just like lots of USB thangs.

I installed the Sonar trial today on a new computer.
I started it, and did some configuration and testing.
 
And then:
Installed the Faderport driver
 The Device manager had it listed as an unknown device.
   Registered the DLL, which was in the sonar shared devices folder.
     Windows then  listed it as a sound device.
       Connected the USB cable.
          Sonar found it and added it to the list of surfaces.
            I selected it from the list and tested.
 
Works ok.
