hi emagic, it seems like ive heard some real horror stories on this list about USB + logic dongles. whats your official opinion. I just ordered a G4 450 & would like to know if they work reliably w/ the imate adapter. it will be the only device on its USB bus. i'm not worried about midi as i also picked up an amt 8. i just want to make sure the dongles are going to work. thanx in advance, david
