OK Mac,
Reset PTPA to factory settings per the inst. you included in your last post to me by re-naming the ptw.ini file and the PTPA.conf file and re-started comp. and re-opened PTPA.
Then went thru all your previous settings as before. Now when I play on my keyboard I still hear it fine on the 2496 cards output and now can also see the notes as I play them
on PTPA's on screen keyboard (which before did not show).
But....Still no VU indication on PTPA's VU's and still none on
2496's mixer control panel screen.
Hmmmm!?!?
