Yes:  Using paddles (implying you have the keyer turned on) is totally 
different that LPT keying, which acts as an old fashioned straight key.  
Conversely, if you have the keyer turned off, the LPT keying from DX4Win (or 
most any other program) works fine, but your paddles are pretty much useless. 
 A major design flaw on the 1000MP, in my opinion.
