Hi Greg, If what you mean is that when you press the hotSpots, they dont work, try to change the folowing HotSpot Clicker parameter: 1st. Open the soft synth and make sure that the right set is attached, 2nd. Press. Alt. control. Shift. plus the function key F4, and choose the hotSpots one by one, 3rd. Go down until you find the parameter; restrict to window, and withth the combination of the keys, Alt. control. Shift. plus the functions keys F11 and F12,make changes to. NO. That usually resolves some hotSpots errors. Try it, and check if it works! best regards, Rui Vilarinho ----- Original Message ----- From: Greg Brayton To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ; midi mag Sent: Monday, January 16, 2012 1:42 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Native instruments hot spot question The hot spot set my friend and I built for kontact 5 is very unstable, that means that after opening and closing the synth 2 or 3 times using f 6 9 or 10 times, the set will allow me access to the instruments. Right now that's all I want. I figure since there was no way I was gonna get my money back, I'd go ahead and try to make this work. The set we did for absenth 5 works very reliably haven't had any trouble at all. Usually I'd get mad enough that if a set didn't work the first couple times I tried it I'd stop trying, but after my patients proved me out the first time or two, I've resigned myself to opening and closing and f sixing till the darned thing opens up. Does anyone have any idea why after a few times the window will line up and the set will work, and about how I could go about getting it to work more reliably like the other sets do?
