Hi Logicians, Please find after a message from Ed GRAY about DIGI 001 and EMAGIC. I have my DIGI 001 since yesterday and I have been using it with Logic Audio Platinium 4.0.7 all afternoon without any major problems (I am having dongle problems with the Imate) Using the Direc/IO that is availlable today ; only tracks 1 to 8 are availlable for recording(no Spdif no Adat). You can also access to the setting of the DIGI 001. Before I was using AV and now with this card I have made my recording sessions much easyer. So now Emagic can work to make the Digi 001 fully compatible with LAM have a good day Cyril PS The price of memory in France is terrible what about in US, what price for 128 MB ? -------------------------------------------------------------------- Ask the Developer Guy posted 11-30-99 06:38 PM Hi Folks, This is Ed Gray, Manager of the Digidesign Developer program. I want to tell you what I know about sequencer support for Digi 001 and invite any of you to e-mail or call me at the number below. First and foremost, Bruce's statement is accurate, Emagic has a complete developer kit for Direct I/O (it's version 2.2 for those of you like Bruce who like to keep track of things like this) which supports Pro Tools 5.0 and identifies the Digi 001 as a supported device. Emagic was informed even before the AES convention that their sequencers and comparable products would be supported by Digi 001. So why the message on Emagic's home page saying that we do not support it? I believe that it was a combination of some communication breakdown between Digidesign and Emagic and Digidesign's need to be cautious about publishing a statement of support until our companies have had a chance to test our products together. But again, the statement that we have provided no support to Emagic is false and I've asked them to remove that from their web site immediately and for both of us to cooperate rapidly to make robust and well-documented support available. The technical problems experienced by "audiotech" are an example of why Digidesign and Emagic need to test Digi 001 with Logic Audio, and with any other applications that want to support 001 through Direct I/O. (Direct I/O, by the way, describes the simple software developer kit and libraries that allow third party applications using their own mixing engines to directly access the input/output capabilities of Digidesign hardware). Audiotech, your problems appear to be related to a design issue with Direct I/O, in which Direct I/O clients like Logic conflict with the 001 OMS MIDI driver, that we are addressing actively right now. We will let you and other users know how to troubleshoot these issues with Logic and other applications as soon as we can. I will forward your system description and your descrtiption of your problems to Digidesign customer service so that they are addressed. We will make sure in the next few days that Emagic and Digidesign have the latest versions of Logic and of Digi 001 to test our applications together thoroughly so that we can build a support "answerbase" of information to help users that are using both products together - in other words, we will do our best to close this loop as soon as possible but it will not be immediate. Please call me in the meantime if you want to discuss this further. Please also check back frequently to the Digidesign support area on our web site for late-breaking information about this issue. On a final note, the development relationship between Emagic and Digidesign remains extremely valuable. From our TDM systems to Digi 001, we have every intention to cooperate with each other to make sure that our products work reliably together and that when problems like this arise, we're both quick to troubleshoot them. Thanks Ed Gray Manager, Developer Group Digidesign 650.842.7775
