      SmileHello, 

      I have a problem with my H8000fw connected with firewire 400 on the firewire port of the mac book pro. When i send the  audio signal in Logic 9, the audio drops out. I tried to change the latency but it is the same.

      I have the 5.5beta1 firmaware and the last H8000fw driver on snow leopard.

      Is there any stabiility problem with firewire connection ?

      thanks

      No particular problem of which I am aware. Try setting it up as a basic Core Audio device as described in the User Manual and see if you have the same problem.

      Hi,

      I use an aggregated driver (my laptop macbook pro soundcard + H8000fw), the sound go out the laptop soundcard and the firewire inputs of the  h8000fw are used for effects.

      I use this conf because I did not see how to do this (what preset routing) only with H8000fw.

      I need you to follow the instructions in the User manual, starting with "Installing Drivers on Your Macintosh" up to but not including "Configuring the H8000FW for Output with Logic Pro."

      Then, tell me how well it works.

      hi teddy

      Sorry, don't understand.

      Did you do this, and if so, when you "Choose a device for sound output" did the playback have the same problems ?

      Hi nickRose,

      I found the problem. If it can help someone :

      1. In logic 9, you must choose the min buffer size; for me 32.

      2. In the audio/midi configuration panel on snow leopard, you must choose for your aggregated driver the Eventide Dice clock.

      It is Ok for me now and the sound was very very good !

      Hi nickrose,

      I have another question related to this.

      I use headphones in my laptop macbookPro. But is there any default routing in the H8000fw  to

       use monitoring speakers to monitor the daw output + have h8000 firewire channels for effects in dsp a and dsp b (h8000fw like soundcard and like effect processor ) ?

      I saw also it is very dangerous to plug directly the monitoring speakers to the analog outputs because we don't see in the Eventide Dice driver panel if there are any signal. And my speakers have not any limiter. It would be interessing to have a little panel in the Dice drivers to monitor this (it's just a suggestion).

      Excuse me for my english Smile
