David Nahmani Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 when i start logic i get it says " can not load module nanoKontrol " Is that a Logic alert? Or does that appear in the Logic splash start-page? Or where? and for some reason its not even turning up in the setup .... Any ideas ? Usually this indicates a driver problem. The NanoKontrol has a driver that is automatically loaded when you first connect it to your computer - did you see the driver being installed?

JustJack Posted April 12, 2011 Author Share Posted April 12, 2011 No nothing . Thats what i dont understand . I was thinking it might show up somewere on my computer but i have searched just about everything and nothing at all . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Have you installed Korg's third-party nanokontrol module? If so, your CS prefs probably refer to it, but if it's been moved or deleted, Logic will be trying to load it and failing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJack Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 No i dont think i have done that ... I will have a look for that and see if i can find it .... will let you know how i get on .. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Temporarily remove your control surface preference file. Logic will build a new one when it runs. /Users/*you*/Library/Preferences/com.apple.logic.pro.cs Does this solve the issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJack Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 No just tried it and i still get the msg when i open logic , Could not load module , nanokontrol , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 No just tried it and i still get the msg when i open logic , Could not load module , nanokontrol , You are sure you deleted the control surfaces file with Logic closed, then restarted Logic? Because it's that pref file that contains the references to the third party nanokontrol module - without it, Logic should not be looking for that module.

JustJack Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 Yes .. It does just like you said it would , logic replaces it . but still no luck . if the worst comes to the worst . I was thinking mabey if i remove logic from my mac and reinstalling it and see what happens .... No matter what i do i always get that same msg ..

JustJack Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 it appears as a splash it tries to load the control than says it cant find it : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Do you have this file? /Library/Application Support/MIDI Device Plug-ins/nanoKONTROL.bundle Open the control surfaces setup window in Logic - is the nanoKontrol module shown in there? If so, delete it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJack Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 Hi sorry was away .... Just had a look and no i dont have this file ..: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic will build a new one when it runs. /Users/*you*/Library/Preferences/com.apple.logic.pro.cs Does this solve the issue? I've just reread that you are using Logic 7. In which case, that's not the correct pref file - iirc Logic 7 keeps the pref files in a Logic subfolder in the prefs folder - /Users/*you*/Library/Preferences/Logic/ rather than the prefs directory itself - so try moving the files in there to the desktop, then running Logic. You said you did move the pref files but did not mention that the file was not where I said it was or that you did something other than what I suggested, so I'm not sure what you did or didn't do - and the result you got indicate to me that you didn't do this properly, because if you had, I'm pretty sure it would have solved your problem. Remove the pref files in that Logic folder (back them up, move them to the desktop, whatever), then run Logic. Do you still get the same error now?

JustJack Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 sorry for that my fault ..... I just did what you said tho and im still getting the same error ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 sorry for that my fault ..... I just did what you said tho and im still getting the same error ..... Hmm... In your control surfaces setup window, what devices are displayed? Given that you've trashed your cs prefs, it *should* be empty, yes..? Also, in the finder, right click on your Logic application and select Show Package Contents, then navigate into "MIDI Device Plug-Ins" - is there anything in there mentioning "nanoKontrol"? (There shouldn't be). You can also try installing the nanoKontrol module and seeing if that fixes it: http://www.korg.co.uk/products/software_controllers/nano/sc_nano.asp#GarageBandPlugIn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJack Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 In the control surfaces setup window all i have is an icon of the computer and nothing eles ... And your right in the MIDI Device Plug-Ins like you said nothing ,,, Ok i will give that a go and see what happens ... It is a strange one going by most of the info i have read on the net i shouldent be getting that problem but for some odd reason i am lol...

JustJack Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 ok well the kontroler works . all the sliders and knobs do the same thing tho , so im guessing i will have to assign them , There is no icon in setup for the kontroler tho and i still get the same msg " no nanokontroler module found " when i first start logic7 .. but so far must have done something right for it to be working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
