Tweaker & eBox-44

Support for hardware we no longer build.

The Tweaker and the eBox-44 have been out of production for years. Plenty of them are still working every week, so everything we ever published for them stays online — no account, no email wall, no expiry.


Start here

Most problems with either product come down to one of three things. Check these before anything else.

  1. Version mismatch. The Tweaker's Ableton Live remote script is version-locked to specific releases of Live. Installing the wrong one produces symptoms that look like broken hardware. Check the compatibility table first.
  2. Port conflicts. If more than one Traktor mapping is assigned to Tweaker Port 1, the hardware receives contradictory messages and behaves erratically. Only one mapping may be active; set the rest to None. See Installing Traktor mappings.
  3. Modified settings. The Tweaker is deeply customizable, which means it can be customized into a corner. A factory reset from the Tweaker Editor rules this out in under a minute.

A note on age

This hardware dates from 2011 to 2015. The eBox-44 drivers were written for operating systems that are now long superseded, and the Tweaker's DAW integrations target Ableton Live 8 and 9 and Traktor Pro 2. The Tweaker itself is a class-compliant USB MIDI device, so it still enumerates and sends MIDI on any modern machine without a driver — it is only the remote scripts and mappings that are tied to those older host versions.

Nothing here receives further development. It is preserved as-is, and it will stay reachable.
