Is anyone out there using the FirePod yet? I have a friend looking to buy a PowerBook (finally taking my advice) and I'm curious to know about anyone's good or bad experiences. I hear OS 10.3.5 has the drivers already installed...I love Apple.

I love the firepod with GB2. haven't had a single problem.
when i record on GB2, I make sure the faders are all the way to zero. i then check that my levels are not peaking, adjusting the GAIN knobs on the Firepod. When I record, I keep the MAIN LEVEL knob on the firepod at zero. I keep my MIXER knob pointed at 12 o'clock. I hit record on GB2. When i play back, i simply turn my firepod volume up, then turn the GB2 faders up. everything runs great! i don't know if this helps, bluesskybluesguy, but i think you may be confusing "volume" with "gain." I havent run into the issue your discussing. when you lower the gain knob, you definitely lower the input intensity of the instrument into the computer. but that should not affect the volume from any faders or main levels knobs you have. With that said - i have what may be a stupid question. GB2 shows 10 channels. i know what the first 8 are for - mics/instruments. what do channels 9 and 10 correspond to on the Firepod? also - does anyone run a MIDI device through the Firepod? if so, how is that working out for you? thanks. -G. -------------------- |
