Oxygen 8 And Macbook Comunication Problem, cant get midi signal into macbook intel core 2 duo (os 10.4.10) Options

Hi,

The signal sent from my oxygen8 isnt received from my macbook (intel core 2 duo ox 10.4.10). The weird thing is that the midi controler is recognized, i.e. it is showed active in the "audio midi setup" of the computer, even in the Live 6 "midi preferences", it does recognize the device; but when i press the keys on the oxygen it does nothing and the "midi in " of Live 6 does not lite up nor i can send any signals from the midi controler.
The problem was recreated when connecting to Absynth, but not when conected via usb cable to a hardware sequencer. As to drivers, i have installed the latest driver for my OS. . The old driver didnt work either, and when i had my other mac (powerbook) it worked just fine. So i'm thinking maybe this is a compatibility problem between oxygen and OSX 10.4.10

Arrr, any ideas??

thanks,

P

It is better to wait an extra month or two and save than to buy "Entry Level". Especially, especially, without fail, promise (Do you hear me?) with Interfaces. Not only will you have Signal Problems, but one of the most important parts of your music chain will be weak. I know you want to start creating music right away, but, please sacrifice, cut down on drinking, drugs, gambling, ask you grandparents, girlfriend, boyfriend for money, but don't buy cheap Hardware Audio Interfaces. Please. Too many problems with them and they never seem to get solved. I have read a hundred or more problems with "Entry Level" Interfaces, not saying any names, hey, the good ones can mess-up too, but they can be fixed, and usually the postage cost more than the repair, but "Entry Level" problems are 'forever'. Plus, you want to be proud of your gear, not ashamed of it. A month or two wait to save money will save years of pain and audio problems. I'll shut up now.

Om.
