Please place this in the proper section thx :WTF: :WTF:

Looks like its copying your old programs and making multiples of them causing more CPU usage...Try deleting the copies...

Not sure if it's a bug or not, but I can't change any of my volume faders and pan knobs with the scroll wheel on my mouse anymore. It works inside the plugins, but the software

it needs a few tweaks...I think its exploding the old project tracks or something IDK...I guess I will just try and work it out.

EDIT: When you switch from any plugin to <none> on a plugin in track, the software crashes. Can easily be reproduced.


Same problem here.

Plugin or DAW Mode isn't working in Pro Tools 11. Whenever I press play or stop in either Mode it does nothing. It works in Pro Tools 10.

MMC Control isn't working in Pro Tools 11. In Pro Tools 10, it lets you press Play in Pro Tools 10. I'm not sure how it's supposed to work in either. I never used it before, I figured I'd try it out since there are more Virtual Outs.

This is why there should be a PUBLIC BETA after the official beta testers :idea:
I do believe Akai and the beta testers have done a great job with this update. Just my 2 cents.

I Totally agree.

Hopefully they can provide a quick point release update for these bugs, without having to wait for 1.8 or an extended beta testing process for a point update.

There will be a 1.7.1 release shortly.

We are listening. Some things reported here have been fixed already in the next release.

MSB and LSB settings are not working properly to make midi bank program changes to select sound patches from my midi devices in this latest 1.7 update...when I change MSB and LSB values to switch sound banks nothing happens until I hit play from the transport...the previous 1.6 version changed the MSB/LSB in realtime...the Midi settings from the mpc 2500 handled these value changes perfectly and was very responsive if you need a reference...and also I have a basic FEATURE REQUEST: reference the MPC 3000 on this one, allow the ability to simply name the midi Channel and have everything saved under that Channel.."port" and "CH" should not even exist as separate items to change..everything should just be in "Type" so when u select midi it will appear as "Type: Midi 1A" , Type: Midi 2A" on so on...and just allow the user to change the Midi 1A name to whatever external synth the have...this was all implemented in the MPC 3000..

This was intentionally removed in favor of being able to scroll the mixer without accidentally changing faders and pans when using track pads, which was extremely annoying.
