Steinberg Huston Controller

[cheddatom]

I've just bought a Steiberg Huston from a fellow basschatter, and I can't get it working. I'm using USB as I don't have MIDI cables. When I install it in windows it says that the device may not work correctly as it cannot start. It's lit up and was detected as new hardware etc. In cubase I can add a Huston device, but can't see the Huston as a MIDI in and out.

Any help would be appreciated!

Is this in the right section? I really hope someone can help me with this!

Can you not get help from the Bc'er who sold it to you?

[cheddatom]

No he says he just installed it and it worked for him, which is fair enough!

Speak nicely to a modly person and get this moved, I should think even general bass discussion would guarantee it more views!

[cheddatom]

Are there more people in that forum? I didn't think it had anything to do with bass. When you need to contact a mod, how do you choose? There are so many to pick from, I don't know where to start!

I bought some MIDI cables yesterday and set it up to use MIDI instead of USB. It follows cubase perfectly, beautiful moving faders etc. However, it won't control cubase at all, nothing works.

I've found a page online which describes how to run a fader calibration. I tried this and it moves the master fader about a bit, and then says "F1 could not reach the top" (or bottom depending on where I place the master fader to begin with. It does actually reach the top though.

Any other help would be most appreciated!

Try

Devices / device set up / remote devices - quick controls /
Press the + at the top left hand comer of the page find the Houston Controller click on it
Set Midi in - midi out to whatever the Huston controllers are on
apply

Hope that helps

I'd already done that.

what I hadn't done was select MIDI inputs and then change them to active. God know why they'd be set as inactive, but they were. It's working now!!! GREAT
