Thanks for the help my friend. I returned the faderport today and gonna go from there. Can't get any work done messing with hard headed hardware. x) 

If this controller doesn't end up working out, what's your take on touchscreen integration with Sonar? As much as we utilize touchscreens on a daily basis with smartphones, it definitely has me wondering if that would be a better option all together. A decent touchscreen will be just about as much as the faderport. Something I'm considering as I'm fighting the faderport. x) 

I'm using Sonar Platinum. Would a wireless keyboard or wireless mouse interfere with it you think? 

Got everything set the way its supposed to be and when I load up Sonar it just freezes now. I have gotten the notification once or twice that the output was dropped because "not enough memory." Any ideas what could be causing this? I appreciate your time. I really do. Starting to wonder if this controller is just destined to not play nice with Sonar and my PC. Should be more than enough PC to handle it. Let me know what ya think. Thanks! 

WAIT! Found the faderportdevice.dll 

Just trying to sort out where it needs to be. X)

Some updates to both the MMcL MackieControl & C4Mapper:

MMcL MackieControl

• Support for custom parameter labels, so if the auto-crunched 6 character parameter label doesn't make sense, you can now give it your own.

Note: All of the enhancements & fixes in the MMcL MackieControl (which includes all Azslow3's previous fixes) will be available officially in the next release of Cakewalk, with the exception of multiple independent surface support. Feel free to wait for the official Cakewalk version, however if you want it now, or need multiple independent surface support then use this version.

C4Mapper

• Support for the custom parameter labels above, along with a preview of what parameter labels will look like on your MCU/XT/C4
• For non-C4 users: A new "Remap to Modifiers" button which takes the 32  button layout, and maps Row 2 to M1, Row 3 to M2 and Row to M4. This allows you to create your layout on the one screen, but map them to the MCU's (or XT's) 8 VPot's for use with the modifier keys.
• Mouse over hints are now available on most controls

As usual, any issues - please PM me.

The DLL can be found via these links? I'm not seeing it? 

I was actually looking for the DLL and could not find it. I figured that's what I needed, but read otherwise at one point. Either way, can you point me in the right direction to find the DLL? 

Please and thank you! 

It doesn't have a Sonar mode. Checking in the Mackie Control panel now. Not seeing anything that relates to the handshake process there. Weird. 

Hey msmcleod, been a while since I have been on the forums and I just grabbed a new Presonus Faderport.  (single)

Heads spinning a bit because I cant get that bad boy to work at all in Sonar Platinum.

For reference -

Windows 10

Updated Firmware

Farerport doesn't show up in control surfaces in Sonar settings.

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but so far no luck. Even downloaded your Mackie installer above. 

Not the most PC savvy.  Would love to have the faderport on board!

Please and thank you in advance for help!
