Samfordia Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I am in a bit of a pickle. I sat down with four new tracks ready for me to lay some bass lines down but encountered a problem. My PC recently updated to Windows 10 and now my BR-800 isn't recognised as a mackie control in Sonar LE. Do I now have a fairly expensive digital recorder that I cannot use with Windows 10? I'm guessing that it won't be updated with a new driver for quite a long time. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topo morto Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 When you updated, did all the drivers actually get "carried over" to the new OS? If not, might it be a question of reinstalling it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samfordia Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 Yeah unfortunately they all carried over so that isn't the issue. I wish it was though! Would be so simple to fix then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topo morto Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling it in 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samfordia Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Thanks for another idea. I tried it but still nothing. It won't even install the 8.1 driver now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topo morto Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 When you try to install it, is there an identifiable error message / 'refusal' message? What exactly happens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samfordia Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 It gets stuck at this point forever. http://imgur.com/3JW2Ojj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowdown Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 If not done already, try this when installing. Right click on installer, then Run as Administrator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samfordia Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 I hadn't tried that for some reason. But I have already had it installed and it wasn't recognised inside of Sonar. Boss replied to me today saying that: "The Windows 10 drivers for the BR-800 are currently being reviewed by Microsoft as we speak. A release is due any day now but please keep an eye out on the official downloads page below where the driver will first be released" Hopefully that will be the case. I really need to get started on things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
