OK, I have installed the plug-in from the preferences. Logic sees the US-428, and there is a nice picture of it and everything. > > I did have a hell of a time getting Logic to work with it.

Gettin it to work was a frustrating process though. Maybe that is my problem...when I solo a track, or select something, or use a transport control _in Logic_ the corresponding button lights up on the US-428. When I try to issue a command from the US-428 I see MIDI messages on screen, but nothing happens the way I would expect. As this is my first attempt at using any kind of control surface, maybe I am missing something obvious...however, from what you say, maybe it just isn't installed right, or else maybe I have a defective unit??? Thanks for the help, Eos. -- blairfisher@...
