We have a SL3 64S set up controlling ProTools with the HUI interface. Faders and everything else works, but if you select the channel and press the "Input" button (or touch the "Pan" button on the touchscreen) to select pan mode (and Pan 1.00.000 is on the screen) the rotating control doesn't alter the pan settings in ProTools, either for Pan or PanR. There must be some button we're missing here - what is it?

We have checked and are on latest 2.4.17466 64S firmware and 3.4.61835 Universal Control

Anyone? Does anyone have pans working in daw mode using pro tools? A single person?

I wish panning was the ONLY ISSUE I was having with DAW mode using HUI control for ProTools! I have a brand-new 64S and have had a constant list of totally erratic issues with DAW mode either not connecting at all, or when it does, moving a single fader will cause that fader plus another fader (either 9 faders higher or lower) to also move as if they are linked! I cannot get Channel 22 (only Ch 22) to solo from the console surface, and if I solo ch 22 on the screen in PT, the solo button will not light on the console (although the ch 22 solo light does work). Today when I attempted to pan any channel it does nothing, so I googled and found this thread. I have been writing Presonus Support daily for more than 2 weeks with answers 3 days later, like: "maybe try a different USB cable" or "does it do the same thing in StudioOne". VERY disappointed in Presonus, as I am actually a Presonus dealer and can't sell this product in good conscience, if I know it doesn't work as advertised!

for all that have replied here, please contact me briefly, at "Seattle user 206 @ gmail dot com" all one line no spaces.

and DavidDAW1 I was once told it's my hard drive MY EFING hard drive that is causing problems, man. The amount of total run around was and is still shocking. to have a video up pretending as though panning works is so wrong. So they had to sit there and decide to include a script where they acted out a function as working full well knowing it did not. is there not any kind of legality issue in all this. I'm just going to buy a couple of s1's and use the s64 as a live room mixer in the large live room area of the studio. but first, i have to send it back for repairs all ready. scribble strips going blank ch 25-26-27-28 all dead. I went through two s64s before getting one that worked well worked well enough to at least use it. And they had finally sent me the replacement board on the last 64s. and had to go through 3 x three 32s same thing. all purchased at once. i purchased s64 s32 two headphone mixer pods one of the network interfaces and a 16x8 remote box and some other items and i was like a couple of days out from the promo they were starting and could not see clear to include me in that after all the BS and that's fine. but the fake video of pretending pans work is really low man.
