4 Mandala's > 1 Computer = Latency? 
  Hi all I've had one USB Mandala on my kit running through Battery 3 for ages, with no problems at all. I have recently added three more and hooked them up in exactly the same way. Everything works fine as in, my computer recognises all the zones on all the pads. On top of that 90% of the time when I hit the... more »

losing the mandala too 
  The other day I stated that this was not a problem, now it is. Got things running now, but one of my drums will shut off, seems like during playing a lot of notes in sequence. I have to go back into battery and turn the mandala off/on. And, no I'm not running through a hub, it's directly to the pc. Any thoughts? I'm reluctantly thinking... more »

will using an old powerbook G4 work alright? 
  I have a several year old Powerbook G4 laptop with a 1 ghz processor, 2 gb of ram, usb 1.0 or 1.1, running mac osx 10.4.11. Is this setup fast enough to handle a mandala with no audio breakout box? I want to use battery 3, reason, or ableton live for samples. Any input would be greatly appreciated, I really want to get a mandala asap for my... more »

is my computer fast enough for the mandala? 
  I'm using a powerbook G4 laptop from several years ago and was wondering if it would be fast enough to use with the mandala and either battery, reason, or ableton live. It has a 1 ghz processor, 2 gb of ram, and is running mac os X version 10.4.11. I believe it also has a slightly older type of usb, as whenever I connect my i-pod to it... more »

more c.b. and battery questions 
  Okay, I've chased this up a tree, I think. I set up control burst like Killing joke specified. However, the burst app does not seem to save settings for the second mandala, which should be on channel two, right? So, if Im using control burst, I don't need to mess with the virtual brain at all? Now an issue with battery. I'm having problems... more »

control burst and such 
  Reading the forums, I think I have the basics, I'm assigning my mandalas is battery, and clumisily being able to assign one zone per cell through the vb. I'm confused about control burst, I thought one pad goes on one channel, and another pad on another channel. I'm not losing the mandalas in battery like the previous post, but the signal... more »

Battery "loses" the mandala MIDI device 
  Hi everybody, here's a problem I've experienced a lot recently using the mandalas with Battery 3 , and I've got no clue what the reason and/or solution might be: Basically my setup with the pads and Battery 3 on a Vista machine works fine, but Battery sometimes "loses" the MIDI device during a... more »

Black Beauty Snare Software 
  Hey Guys, i am one sad idiot^^. I have purchased the mandala usb drum and it did not work on my windows pc (even with asio4all the delay was too bad).

I wanted to try the thing out so badly that i bought a macbook pro (!), because i had... more »
