Translation Fails in Vista with "run as administrator&q

[edited post subject after I did some more troubleshooting]

I'm sure I'm making a newb error:
Using ReMoteSL and Ableton Live 8

I have Bomes Classic (waiting for my pro serial # *ahem* patiently)

I think I'm doing something right as I'm able to capture CC and note values from Remote SL (from either midi port 1 or automap port) and translate them to a "z" key.

I prove this by opening Notepad and typing z's by pressing keys on my midi controller.

however, Ableton does not seem to respond at all. I have the arm track set to z key, and when I press on my laptops keyboard, sure enough it works, but when i press my midi controller "transalted to z" key, Ableton doesn't see it (it does see it as midi however)

Thanks for any help... I'm at a loss to explain why notepad would see the translated key press but not Ableton.

Thanks in advance!!!

OH NO!!!!

When running Ableton in Vista with the "run as administrator" option when right clicking the program icon, it seems to kill the keyboard translating that Bome's does.

I have to run it as admin to get around a problem caused by certain Native Instrument VSTs and Ableton not playing nice together with Vista's user authentication crap turned on.

Ahhh okay.

So if I run BOTH Ableton Live AND Bome's "as administrator" then bome's translation works.

Don't know why I didn't think of that as soon as I realized the problem in the first place.

Hi,

nice to hear that it works now for you!
