The Lighting Controller

OMG, this just made my night! I've been struggling with this problem for years. I just beat the piss out of my MIDI controllers and ShowXpress just kept on trucking!

Thank you so much!!!

I stumbled across this post: https://forum.thelightingcontroller.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4711&sid=e8459591b66919d343ee9a3c62670166&start=20

Which inspired me to hard-wire my Numark Orbit and I can't make ShowXpress crash! An overflow error was suggested in the other post, and that seems highly ...

Sooo, onto your last fix suggestion:
- If possible, directly configure your midi device in the software instead of passing by a MIDI Translator (crashes can come from a buggy midi translator as already seen)

It's not possible until you either provide us more master faders or support multiple MIDI ...

- Update your software with the latest fix file (v9.2.32 at this time)
I have, but none of the updates over the past year have had any impact

- Disable midi output from the main preferences (to isolate an infinite loopback problem)
Error took longer than usual to generate and came back ...

Sorry for the long layoff, but I'm finally getting back to solving this problem.

Here's the error message provided by the debugging console when the crash in question happens.

Here you go

Operating System: Windows 10 Home, version 21H1 (on current update)
Hardware: Lenovo T470s, Core i5, 20 GB RAM, integrated graphics

MIDI Devices: Numark Orbit, Livid Base II (both devices control the first 4 master faders)
MIDI Software: Bome's MIDI Translator v1.8.3

ShowXpress Version: 9.2.23 ...

Sending input from 3-4 MIDI faders simultaneously will consistently crash ShowXpress. If I send from 8 faders at once, it will instantly crash. All faders are set up as ControlChange messages. I am using Bome's MIDI Translator as a go-between to manage my MIDI controllers (Livid Base II and Numark ...

Tim,

Yes, I agree that the problem is most likely isolated to that luminaire. Connecting the P-56uv somehow scrambled the brains of the Xpress 512.

I'd really like to recover my Xpress 512 if possible. I managed to reset it once with a fresh install on a naive computer, but I can't seem to ...

I viewed your link. I've already tested and reported on (1) and (2). I can't test (4) yet, but I ordered a new 512s to do so.

I tested (3) by borrowing a Microsoft Surface Pro running Windows 10. The computer has never had ShowXpress installed nor has had either DMX interface connected to it.

I ...
