The 410 has never really worked. Every driver has some kind of issue. Hanging MIDI notes; Loss of audio monitoring, being just the most recent things. It's well spec'd, but doesn't deliver. They've had long enough to get it right..
I need something with solid dependability, low latency and the usual. I'll move away from Cubase and Garageband and get a new DAW. WHAT'S GOOD? MBox 2 Pro? At least it'd come with a good DAW.. or MOTU UltraLite? and maybe get Logic Express or something?.. |

Hello Cheekypaul, our friend uses Cubase and GarageBand for now, not PT.

Hello Cheekypaul, our friend uses Cubase and GarageBand for now, not PT. oops, I noticed a little after I posted. Though... Drivers for midi and audio from different packages do clash sometimes. It may be worth trying to isolate. THe 410 is excellent. Absolutely no problems here. Good luck... -------------------- MacBook Pro,750gb internal,3gb RAM,Pro Tools,Live,Reason,Reaktor,Transit/410/Audiophile.
