The pointer is on the top of the browse window and when i select something it selects a patch maybe 5 patches down from the mouse pointer.

what's the specs of your MP and video card. i have one here from january 2008 (2.8, std. configuration). let's see if i can replicate it.

cheers, marc

I have the standard latest 2.8 quad core 4gigs memory with the nvidia 256 MB 8400gs video card. I am running OSX 10.5.6.

i'm on the same OS and a radeon HD2600. i doubt that it makes a difference. in fact, if it would, it would be beyond the scope of VC. did you contact access support?

best, marc

Marc,
Thanks for all of your help. I initially wasn't really asking for help on this forum. Just making an observation that i know may only be true on my machine. I will definitely call tech support if i cannot troubleshoot it. I would like to try and swap out my video card first and see what happens. Again, I really appreciate your trying to help me out. Access is a great company with great products.

Regards,

Mike

So does that mean it does work haha!? Maybe I'll throw caution to the wind and give it a go, what's the worst thing that can happen............................

I've experienced the same issues with the VCC plugin in PTLE 8.

My setup is as follows.
Macbook Pro 2.16 c2d | 4gigs RAM | 320gig 7200rpm drive | 128mg ATI PCIe
Mbox Pro 2 Firewire
Virus TI Keyboard 2.7.5

The issue is the same as the original poster. I can load up the plugin, and click around and it's fine, however after closing and reopening the plugin, the mouse pointer is offset and I can only fix this if I remove the plugin and then re-insert it.

This problem also occurs in the template's I've made that already include the VCC on an instrument channel.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the TI Software.

Update: 01-19-09

Reformatted my Macbook Pro.
Clean install of Leopard
Downloaded and installed Combo Update 10.5.5
Installed PTLE 8
Installed Virus Control and Update to 3.0
Nothing else has been installed as of yet as I did not want any potential conflicts to occur with other apps.

Same issue is still prevalent. Upon initiating the VCC as an insert, all controls appear to work fine. After closing the plugin and re-opening it, the mouse cursor is still offset. ie: clicking "Part 1" will select "Part 5".

Only by removing the VCC insert and re-instantiating it, does the mouse control function normally.

I've confirmed the issue is occurring with both VCC RTAS plugins 2.7.5 and 3.0

My audio units work great in Ableton Live and Logic Pro.
