Myself . . . .I have a MTP/AV, which I currently have running via USB. I've also had it hooked via serial to a StealthPort . . .also no hanging notes. But when I tried to run the interface in the fast mode . . all kinds of weird stuff happened. best, Jon --config-- Apple Dual 800 G4, 1.5 gigs ram, Mac OS 9.2.2, RME Hammerfall DSP, MOTU 2408, MOTU MTP AV (USB), OMS 2.3.8, Spirit 328 Digital Mixer/Controller, Apogee Converters (WC Master), ATI Radeon AGP, ATI Rage 128 (second monitor).

I wonder if anyone has tried any of the older gport/g4port drivers? I'm having trouble remembering when exactly this problem began. Was it when I began using LAMP 4.8.1, g4port driver 1.2, or MacOS 9.2.2? Man, I should have taken better notes. :) Peter Ehrlich -- http://home.pacbell.net/grain http://homepage.mac.com/gretagrain/ gretagrain and gretagrain2 on AIM icq# 30567191 grain@... grain_la@... gretagrain@...

I have also heard the rumor, that gPort/StealthPort are out-of-spec hardware for the Apple machines, because the internal serial port (which they use) is only specified for the internal modem and that out-of-spec hardware can't work reliable. I don't have further information about it. I also don't know why it works in older versions of Mac OS, but Apple might have changed their code to access the modem in newer versions of Mac OS 9. If the rumor is true, then Stealth and Griffin have to develop their own driver, probably an OMS driver, too. At the moment their "driver" is trivial: they are just telling the system, that there is a serial port and then the system uses it's own (modem) driver. If anybody still has 9.0.4 on his machine: give it a try! I don't expect problems with LA4.8.1, because AFAIK we didn't changed the serial support and/or MIDI support.

There are _no_ problems with LAM 5.0, MAC OS 9.2.2 and the Stealth Port and a Studio 4 or a MTP in FAST mode Some programs like SysEx, and Sound Diver work only or better in "slow" mode.

I can tell you that if I was using USB instead of the Stealth port, I wouldn't be getting any work done due to constant crashes. Everything worked fine with USB/OMS and Pro Tools, but Logic wouldn't run more than 5 minutes w/o crashing/locking up. No more crashes since switching to Stealth port. Colin Miller
