Re: [Avid-L2] Artist Color Panel very degraded in Resolve 16 OS 10.13.6 vs. Resolve 15 OS 10.12.6?

I have a setup with Resolve 15 on Win 7 and the Artist Color is working fine with Eucon 3.6.1

Reading your plight made me decide to see how well the Artist Color would work across the network on another machine.

I therefore installed Eucon 3.6.1 on a laptop with Win10 and Resolve 16.2.1.

Apart from an alert message from my antivirus software about one of the Eucon components (which I allowed) the install worked fine and I could see/assign my panel in the Eucon software.

I'm pleased to report that the Artist Color seems to behave exactly the same. Haven't done extensive testing, but using the three trackballs and rings seems about as responsive as I remember.

Obviously, this is on a Windows setup so I don't know what's happening with your Mac hardware/software. The only thing that is different is that I'm using an earlier version of Eucon. I don't think the later versions added any functionality to the Artist Color and was mainly aimed at improving their audio surfaces. I did read that someone had problems with their Artist Color when they (naturally) upgraded their Eucon software and went back to the earlier version.

3.6.1 might be worth a try.

I've been beating my head trying to test my Artist Color Panel in Resolve 16 OS 10.13.6.  It's just awful and I don't remember it being that way before in my classes etc...  Today I went back to my 10.12.6 startup Resolve 15 and the panel is very smooth like I remembered.  Has anybody noticed the degradation of the sensitivity/perrformance of the Artist Color Panel on Resolve 16.  I'm using the same Eucon software on 10.12.6 and 10.13.6 as that hasn't been updated because the panel is EOL.  I can't install Resolve 16 on OS 10.12.6 so I can't tell if it's Resolve 16 or Eucon/10.13.6 issue.  I wish Resolve would at least let me risk installing Resolve 16 on 10.12.6.  I know this is old hardware but it works fine on the 10.12.6 startup.

I'm going to borrow another Artist Color Panel from a friend to doube check and also hist BM Mini panel.  It really feels like Resolve 16 may have crippled the Artist Color even though it is still an option in the pulldown menu.  Or it's OS 10.13.6/Eucon?  Nothing like herding software cats.

Anybody seeing what I'm seeing?
