Literally every session my Faderport 8 will lose communication with Protools 2020 running on the latest Catalina 10.15.7. The faders snap to attention but then you just cant use them or any controller on it. A reset *might* occasionally work for a bit, but it's a lottery. Ive got the latest firmware and it's just a complete waste of time. There must be some solution surely?!

I have the exact same problem. When using it with Logic, flawless. With Pro Tools, it loses communication constantly within the first 4-5min of resetting it. I have to reset it multiple times during all sessions. Using Mac OS X Catallina 10.15.7, latest faderport firmware and pro tools version.
