Hey everyone,
In Ableton, I’ve set up tracks exactly according to the OB manual for the first 2 tracks on the A4, thus I have 5 tracks (one for the A4 VST, 2 audio, 2 MIDI)—the 5 visible in the attached screenshot.
There are a few issues:
-
When playing polyphonically, audio will be picked up on more than a single track (labeled “A4 1 Audio” and “A4 2 Audio” in my screenshot). If I disable audio monitoring on one audio track that’s picking up the audio, I can no longer play polyphonically; the focused track only registers monophonically.
-
Related to above: recorded clips that are polyphonic (recorded prior to using OB), now playback as monophonic while OB is enabled.
-
When focused on one specific MIDI track (“A4 2 MIDI”), I can’t play polyphonically ever—with a note sustained, sounds from subsequent key presses don’t output. This problem does not present on the other MIDI track.
In 3 the above issues, the problem has been present while using the A4’s onboard mini-keys and an external controller (Push 2).
- While trying to set up Overbridge in its Control Panel app, after I hit “Apply,” I receive an error message, which is then followed, every time, by what I assume is a kernel panic, causing a forced reboot.
Connecting the Analog Four directly to my laptop, instead of to a powered USB hub, has resolved the issue. But now I’m lacking needed USB ports.
I’ve also tried using a USB 2.0 cable for connecting my powered hub to my MacBook Pro—it does not work. Is there any resolution that can involve a hub?
Thanks for any help.
