Hello all, this is my first post here.. I have had my X2 Pro for about 3 weeks now and am getting rather familiar with it.. I just received my VS-100 3 days ago, and was planning on using it as a control surface for X2 Pro.. I have went through and assigned most of my commands using the ACT Learn function.. I am pretty sure that all of my MIDI settings and control surface settings are right... MY issue is that track view in X2 doesnt follow or record fader movement from the VS-100.. Its really starting to annoy me.. I can, however, click the fader on X2 and drag it and the physical fader of the controller moves.. But what good does this do me? LOL.. This makes me think that its a midi send issue from vs or midi receive issue in X2.. But all other ACT functions are working properly.. Can anyone see if they can make sense of this?? thanks! =)

In EDIT->PREFERENCES->MIDI->CONTROL SURFACES

do you have both the "In Port" and the "Out Port" pointed to your VS-100 Control?

Yes sir!! but its still not working.. I'm not sure if it matters, but I wonder if it has something to do with the Windows 8 drivers? Im not sure.. thanks for trying.. =/

Why not try using the VS-100’s controller/surface default mappings to see if that works before editing them with ACT learn. As pointed out above the most common reason for what you are seeing is because the VS-100's midi device has been chosen for the "in port" or "out port" instead of the VS-100 control.

I tried using the default mappings but due to aesthetics and just the positioning of my controller, I like to assign the lower left rotary encoders for most of my tweaking needs especially on the channel strip.. even at default the fader doesnt work.. the vs pretty much functions acceptably other than the fader.. i can use the two buttons to the left of the fader to toggle between tracks and shift/toggle to busses... Im starting to wonder if i have a faulty unit.. but yes the controller is set to vs-100 control for both input and output.. I sure hope tech support can help.. thanks for your input though!

track/record arm, and all of the transport buttons function as well.. Idk.. =/ keep the ideas rolling boys! thanks to everyone!

If the other controls are working bi-directionally but the slider is not it is starting to sound like a defective unit.  I found the setup very straight forward and it just works for me with the defaults.

Glen

are you running it with x2? or sonar vs? and are you using windows 8 also?

I run it with both Windows 7 (laptop) and Windows 8 (Desktop)  on X2a for both.

its gotta be the unit then!!!!! thanks for the help.. return it I must =/
