Touchpad2Midi - won't load in bidule

[number9]

I'm sorry, but Touchpad 2 Midi won't load in bidule 0.9304 at Windows XP SP2+, Sony Vaio (FE 11S).
thanks for any advice,

I'll look at it. Does it load / work in other hosts on your system?

thank you,
I just had a look, it doesn't load in Cubase SX 3.1.1.944 either (don't know if SX3 supports VST 2.4, I guess it should).
Same with Wavelab. That's all VST hosts I use.

sounds like you don't have a synaptics touchpad - touchpad2midi will only work with synaptics touchpads unfortunately.

sorry for the extra work, I've only now read this section on your website and: Yes (I've got an alps touchpad).

thank you anyway,

no extra work really, just a couple of forum posts. And I really should make the plugin notify the user if a Synaptics touchpad is not found on the system (just crashing is not the smoothest of solutions).
