err it works.... just like the last OS update.

I wanted a new gizmo to play with - like 6 MONO outputs instead of 3 stereo pairs.

Not in this latest beta release. Marc states they are working on it, though.

[IamEvil]

coincidence ?

My virus just spluttered and farted , made some strange disolving sound (I should of sampled it ) and fell silent.

I had to turn off by the mains to get it to come back on and when it did the left side of screen was blank - turn off again from wall , left for a minute and now it's back working once again.

Strangely it coincided with my antivirus which was auto updating.. ?

"-VC: Part mute no longer delayed in some cases "

Translation::

Part mute isn't delayed anymore, sometimes.... That's what I got out of it.

cool, glad to hear. this is one feature that I can't wait to start utilizing.

I'm experimenting with this latest beta and it seems like my midi keyboard is telling logic to change screen sets - that is, the keys actually trigger screen changes - flipping between arrange, track mixer, matrix. Now, this could be because I'm a complete n00b, newbie, nube etc etc...the midi keyboard is midi'ed up to the Ti which is USB'd to my mac mini.

I usually use a Yamaha 01X/i88x combo as my interface/digital mixer/control surface but tonight I decided to try the Ti instead but I got lots of synch error messages from logic as well as the screen set changes.

I'm on Tiger 10.4.11, Logic 7.2.3 and 2.7.1.0 on the Ti...just thought I would mention these as I work through the possible causes and fixes....happy tweakin!

ps, also have Logic Studio still in the box waiting to be installed but that's not going to happen for a few weeks yet...anyone else on this latest combo?

mac os x 10.5.4 / Logic pro 8.02 /
Just installed latest beta version 5 and after the install the virus screen shows ' virus ti bios v1.03 -usb updated'ED - the screen stays like this.
computer says restart, i restart, Virus is still stuck on this screen. i pull out power cable and plug back in, wait a few seconds, power up virus. On boot up screen shows 2.5.1.02 (12-sep-07), seems to have updated fine? i play it and no sound comes out, i connect headphones and no sound, i boot up Logic, it runs thru au validation, it detects virus and asks if i'd like to use it as soundcard, i say no becuase i use a tc konnect 48, plugin window opens with a tutorial type screen, i run thru a bit of that then click next and see the usual screen, i go to browser choose a few patches, no sound, logic is playing sound from loops and/or other au's, virus plays no sound. i shut everything down, restart computer, uninstall virus software and then run new beta 5 updater again, reboot, go through everything again and still no sound, my virus makes no sound, what now? any advice please.
