Hello Owen,
Thanks very much for upgrading to v7.

Could you clarify what you're referring to by that "
little app which makes the assigning. of the keyboards and pedals a simple action"?
In Hauptwerk v7 (exactly the same as in v5 or v4), to auto-detect a MIDI keyboard/pedalboard to a virtual keyboard you simply right-click on the relevant virtual keyboard, select "
Auto-detect MIDI ..." from the menu, then follow the on-screen instructions to press the highest and lowest keys on your MIDI keyboard, etc.:
N.B. Whenever auto-detecting anything you need to be particularly careful not to touch any other MIDI controls (e.g. expression pedals), since if MIDI messages are received from other controls then it might prevent Hauptwerk from being able to identify the relevant MIDI messages properly.
There's no difference at all in the way that Hauptwerk v7 auto-detects keyboards, compared to v5.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'wiped out the P450', but upgrading Hauptwerk from v5 to v7 won't in itself cause any organs to become uninstalled, nor lose any of your MIDI settings. If you need us to help with it, then please use "
Help | Create a diagnostic file" and send it to us via:
https://www.hauptwerk.com/submit-ticket/(I think you probably need to be logged into your account on MDA's on-line shop in order to be able to use that function.)
Francois will then be able to see what you did with Paramount 450, what happened, and what needs to be done to resolve it.
Best regards, Martin.
