APC Mini - using with two programs - possible?

Postby spatton » 22 August 2016, 14:17

Hello all, and thank you for a great product.

Last week I purchased an APC Mini for use with ShowXpress. I was recently using version 6.33, and I have made the leap to 8.15. I am able to get the APC working great with the software - no problems whatsoever. I also know VirtualDJ allows for MIDI mapping, so I fired that up and was able to map a few buttons on the APC and control Virtual DJ as well.


The problem I am having is that whatever program I open first (on the same computer) grabs hold of the APC and doesn't allow the other program to recognize or control the APC. So I can have MIDI controlling of either ShowXpress or VirtualDJ, but not both.

I am using Windows 7 Ultimate as my OS, and I am sure this is probably an OS issue versus a ShowXpress issue. Posting here in case anyone has any ideas...

Thanks in advance.
