Just got a QC and... what can I use it for since...

ELISCHUMANN · August 17, 2013, 3:37am

Love the CMC. Yeah I finally jumped to buy the QC and the TP, but came to find out that the QC doesn’t properly work on C7. Is it just the channel EQ that doesn’t work on the controller, or there is something else I should know about.

Anyway, can someone point me on how do I customize the function of the F1-F8 on the QC? Oh. and how do I “unlearn” a nob? I started moving nobs around and kind of messed up a project. Anyway, is there a more detailed manual??

Thanks…

hahah sorry I’m just new to the CMC’s…

hi
to get the QC to work with c7 you need to download and install your latest tools and firmware and then you EQs will work fine .
http://www.steinberg.net/en/support/downloads_hardware/downloads_cmc0.html
To assign key commands to the function buttons you QC is listed in Tab > Devices and you can assign your key commands to your function buttons there

Oh thanks…

ELISCHUMANN · August 17, 2013, 10:00pm

Did all that, Still not working.

Could I be doing something wrong??

G-string · August 17, 2013, 10:04pm

so you have updated the firmware to version 1.11 and installed the version 1.1.2 tools and then a cold reboot after ?

ELISCHUMANN · August 17, 2013, 10:21pm

I even tried downloading the file again. this is what I get when I try to install it again.

Thanks

G-string · August 17, 2013, 10:22pm

your installing the wrong firmware you want version 1.11 not 1.10

ELISCHUMANN · August 17, 2013, 10:27pm

are there options on the download file? I’m downloading that file with the 1.11 but get that 1.10.

G-string · August 17, 2013, 10:35pm

did you follow the update instructions ? it looks like the correct version downloading , for some reason it’s just not installing in your cmc . Have you only got the QC plugged in as I think you can only update one at a time ?

ELISCHUMANN · August 17, 2013, 10:39pm

the first time I tried I had both the QC and TP. Later tried with just the QC and I keep getting that message.

G-string · August 17, 2013, 10:46pm

sorry I don’t know what else to suggest , when moving over from c6 to c7 we had to wait for the new firmware and TOOLS to be released to have the eq’s working with c7 but the firmware and tools both installed effortless

ELISCHUMANN · August 17, 2013, 10:48pm

It looks like the upload file isn’t the latest version…?

G-string · August 17, 2013, 10:49pm

I take you have activated both in the device > setup >left click the + at the top left and chose the cmc’s ?

G-string · August 17, 2013, 10:55pm

how very odd

ELISCHUMANN · August 17, 2013, 10:59pm

Yeap… did you notice that QC says 1.10. Actually only the PD has the v1.11

In the setup… the TP wouldn’t show up when I follow your instructions. the QC was already there.

Thanks a lot…

G-string · August 17, 2013, 11:04pm

I maybe wrong but I do believe that is the latest version and the one before has all the controllers on 1.10

G-string · August 17, 2013, 11:05pm

have you defiantly installed the tools 1.1.2 ???

ELISCHUMANN · August 18, 2013, 12:38am

Yeap.

It works now. I re-installed everything from zero, and re-booted my pc after even trying it.

Thanks G-string. I’m also having trouble finding the channel settings window under the options to setup in the special function keys. LIke I’d like to open the selected channel settings windows with the F1 key.

Thanks again.

G-string · August 18, 2013, 7:42am

excellent ,im glad you got there in the end

To setup F1 for your channel edit window follow TAB Devices > device setup > Steinberg cmc qc > F1 > (drop down box )category :Edit > Edit channel settings

hope this helps and enjoy the qc
