Hi,
The signal sent from my oxygen8 isnt received from my macbook (intel core 2 duo ox 10.4.10). The weird thing is that the midi controler is recognized, i.e. it is showed active in the "audio midi setup" of the computer, even in the Live 6 "midi preferences", it does recognize the device; but when i press the keys on the oxygen it does nothing and the "midi in " of Live 6 does not lite up nor i can send any signals from the midi controler. The problem was recreated when connecting to Absynth, but not when conected via usb cable to a hardware sequencer. As to drivers, i have installed the latest driver for my OS. . The old driver didnt work either, and when i had my other mac (powerbook) it worked just fine. So i'm thinking maybe this is a compatibility problem between oxygen and OSX 10.4.10 Arrr, any ideas?? thanks, P |

M-Audio replaced two Oxygen 8's for me, it's a common thing for their USB to fail.
In the system Profiler check to see if it shows up as an unidentified device. If it does your Oxygen 8s USB is fried. When the third one failed I switched to the O2, no problems so far, but allways power it down when not using it. My problems occured allways after i allowed my Powerbook to sleep.

its a little weird because the oxygen is recognized as a "Keystation Series" by the mac's "Audio MIDI Setup", even more, inside Ableton Live i can see the oxygen 8 active and all, but no MIDI signals are generated, i.e. the "MIDI in" indicator does not lite up.
Weird uh? |
