Anyone still using original HUI with 7.2?

[LightStorm]

Hello first of all to everyone, and thank you for any help on my issue.

I am running DP 7.2 with a original Mackie HUI.
I will try to describe my issue as best as possible.

When I am running more than 8 tracks in the mixer window which is of course always,
and I use the bank keys on the HUI, while it does indeed move my faders to the next 8 channels, however it then makes all the other channels disappear in my mixer window in DP, I have to manually go back to the little drop down menu in the mixer window and select, load board layout>show all tracks, in order to get them all to show back up in the mixer window in DP. This happens every time I select the bank button on the HUI in order to bank over to the next 8 channels.
I would love to be able to hit "bank" on the HUI and it just bank over to the next 8 channels without it making all the other channels disappear from the mixer window in DP and only display the current 8 channels.
Any help would be so very greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Matt.

I'm using a Tascam console in HUI emulation and the bank switching is working very well.
I had to resize my mixer window to be 24 tracks and then it worked like a charm.
I'm switching banks of 24 tracks and DP is happy with this.
Maybe make resize your mixer window to show 8 tracks?

Probably not a great answer to your question, but DP7.2 is doing excellent HUI here.

I think I understand what your saying but I have to be honest I'm not sure.
I just don't understand why when I hit the "bank" button on the HUI it hides all the other tracks except the 8 that it is currently banked to, it should'nt in my opinion hide the other tracks but just simple bank over to the next 8 tracks in the mixer window, this really has me frustrated and confused, I would love to not have to go back in and select show all tracks every single time I hit bank on the HUI.
Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

That is weird!
I don't understand why that is happening.

Just for a test...
What happens if you make your mixer window smaller so it only shows 8 tracks at a time?
Then when you do the bank switch, what happens?

Just curious.

Maybe some more knowledgeable HUI expert could chime in here.

anyone have any ideas about this?

bump for anyone who might have a suggestion.

well I just noticed something after sitting in front of this blasted screen for the last 2 hours trying to figure this out.
If I don't have the mix window selected, say for example I click on another window and have it selected then I can hit the bank button and it scrolls normally through the tracks without making anything disappear, however if I click back on the mix window and then hit the bank button then its back to making all but the 8 channels currently selected disappear.
Not sure what this means but man I could really use some help here on this one. Thanks.

Still on DP 4.61, with BCF2000 ...

Switching banks gives the same 'shows only the selected 8 channels'

In the Mackie Control you can take off the SRLTRKS option in the pref menu of the Mackie Contrl. It's I/O-Prefs/SRLTRKS on the Mackie Ctl. Maybe there's a similar option in the HUI.

I tend to do so, that before clicking bank/preset(BCF2000) button I click mixer window. This way all the tracks in the sequence window stay visible. Of course then mixer window shows only 8 channels at time which are accessible through controller. That suits somehow my work flow, of course I would want it to work like Command 8 and Pro Tools. Active channels/tracks move one at a time left or right with bank buttons and all tracks are always visible in every window...

shift ( upper ) + bank will move only 1, don't know if DP will keep showing all...
...I've split my rig for live mixing and recording...
( glad to have a fader bank for 8 vocals now > BCF2000, and it will operate
independently from what I do on the touchscreen for the band )
