Drumagog and Pro Tools 8
Having problem with drumagog and PT 8 on a Mac 10.5.5. Worked on 7.4.2 no problem. Loads into strip but no audio from the plug or strip while engaged. No visual in drumagog. All other plugins are working except this one. Any help would be appreciated. Also downloaded and reinstalled drumagog, it did not help.
Pro Tools 8 doesn't change anything related to RTAS plugins, and is officially supporting any plugin that was supported in 7.4 (like Drumagog). It sounds like the plugin database or possibly something like a preference file has been corrupted in the upgrade.
The first thing to try in this situation is re-running the Drumagog installer. I'd suggest using the "full retail" version of Drumagog, found on our website (http://www.drumagog.com/download.htm), though you usually will need to re-unlock Drumagog afterwards.

Midi Pipe Bad Pointer-Pro Tools 8
I tried reinstalling as I was having the same problem with PT 8. Gog loads on one track. When I load on a second I get this error message:
error opening midi out (port midi: bad pointer)
Audio works intermittently. One take it's there, the next it is gone.
Any advice?

Thanks,

Got another email with the link to the Ocean Ways setup. I did not realize you needed to assign mulitple pipe midi ports.
What are some ways to optimize the midi function? I imagine there is some real time editing on the VI I need to do. I am getting poor signal at the midi inputs for Xpand. I've been testing it with their drum kits.
Is there always a delay with the midi setup?

There is some delay when using a utility like MIDI Pipe to re-route the signal for Pro Tools. At this time, since Pro Tools does not support any built-in way to route MIDI from plugins to MIDI tracks, using an outside utility is the only way to do this.
Regarding the question about signal level, I'm assuming the PT meter is showing the note velocities. Drumagog simply does a conversion from the detected hit's audio amplitude (in dB) to MIDI velocity. If you want higher velocities in your MIDI output, you will need to raise the value of the "Input" knob in Drumagog's Main window (and not the "Output" knob, which does not affect MIDI output), which raises the amplitude of the detected hits. It maxes out at +4 dB, so if you need more you could raise the gain of the audio track.
