Heya Mike, Thanks for taking the time to keep us all posted. I'm keen to hear about latency running this setup, how it compares with an ESB instrument etc. I'm about to try out the RME PAD8 (using the AES outputs), and I'll post my results as well. Cheers! Tony

Anyone tested it yet? /Erik

Trying to find a "cardless" way to avoid using ESB, the Hammerfall sounds great but I won't have any free PCI card slots. Does anybody know anything about the M Audio 1814 Firewire interface? It's a standalone Firewire in, ADAT out, 8 channel interface. Would be a great solution around using ESB while not taking up card slots. Thanks Ed A

I personally stay away from buying *any* of their products after having a major issue with their tech support back in 96 or 97. Also I've seen many people having problems with their interfaces (drivers making Macs crash every other minute and stuff like that). I don't talk about their sound quality, cause it's totally unacceptable to my ear. Best, Andy

Except that it would chew up FireWire bandwidth (which might be important if you're recording to FireWire drives and/or outputting video to FireWire). Lee Blaske

Anyone using the Apogee x-mix card expansion i'd love to hear feedbacks! Specially with Logic in mind! Thanks! Jean-pierre Brie http://loreille.com

what would be the limitations with the optical out of the G5 into optical in on the 192 interface? Daniel Cainer

Thanks, Dave

yes. been using it for about 3 months. works perfectly. works well in Logic or PT. took out 888/24.

Any way to export Stereo regions to Pro Tools without massive renaming? When Pro Tools Imports the right half, it renames the region therefore disconnecting it from the left half. Logic doesn¹t seem to allow separate naming of left & right regions (.L, .R). I tried disconnecting, universal track mode, etc. No Luck. Charles Pollard

OS 10.3.4, PT 6.4, LP 6.4.2 successfully synced via hardwire midi (same computer). PT sending MTC, Logic sending MMC, 828mkII instead of ESB (synced via lightpipe), core audio tracks & instruments streaming into PT auxes ... BUT, when I activate my Logic control universal (in HUI mode) in PT peripherals, Logic prompts ³No input source selected² relentlessly. MTC loop??? Where?? I was almost there :/ Charles Pollard

Heya all, Is anyone using MOTU Mach5? just wondering how it is working under ESB, as well as any feedback on the sampler itself. (I have a fairly large Roland sample library from way back, and Mach5 is one of the only samplers to read those) Much appreciated! Tony

I'm using Mach 5 (OS9, PTMix system) and it works fairly well. The timing is much better than Soft SampleCell and the user interface is, in my opinion, much more appealing than EXS. The sample import is useful but not, unsurprisingly, infallible. As with other VST plugs you cannot make use of the multiple outputs. I found that the best way to use it is to set up a Multi instrument and patch that to the VST instrument (in order to make use of the multiple MIDI channels). One bug I have noticed under ESB is that sometimes it isn't possible to expand the instrument in order to view the edit window. If this happens it is necessary to re-instantiate the plugin. For this reason I recommend regularly saving the Mach5 performance for each song. Simon W Boomtown Studio

It's the same bandwidth (firewire is a bus), so the only way you can increase that is by adding for example a PCI Firewire card to your computer. Cheers, Kevin

Start Logic without Audio Drivers (Control while boot) Load the offending song. Open Audio configuration. Clear offending Plug-Ins etc. Save song Reboot Logic with Audio Drivers Load the song you saved It's a workaround but it works. Jesper

A G5, with FW800 and FW400 might offer more possibilities. Perhaps you could run your drives on the FW800 bus, and video and an audio interface on the FW400 bus. Keep in mind, too, that FW800 will supposedly be improved on the next batch of G5's coming out. Lee Blaske

There is on the G5 only 1 bus. Although you have 800 and 400 ports, they are all part of the same bus. Also note that this also implies that as soon as you connect any S400 device at all your entire bus drops to S400 speed. This is different by the way than the scheme with S100,S200,S400 where it depends on how you connect it. The reason for this is S800 and above use a different scheme than S400 or lower. So in other words a FW800 drive will not really be using S800 if another device is connected that isn't S800. I happen to develop Firewire devices during my daytime job (my music is somewhat to strange probably to consider making a living out of it :-) ) anyways I hope the above was clear. So if you want to use a FW800 drive and use a device that's not S800 capable (technically speaking S400beta would be ok, but I don't think this is the place to go into in-depth technical background) you might consider getting a PCI card as well.
