Hi all,
First time post here so hope someone has some ideas. I have been directed by a helpful guy on the Apple Mac forums so here is my problem. I have the following, Edirol FA66 - G5 Quad 2.5 10.5.8 - G4/800 platinum 10.4.11 and G3/500 10.3.9. I have been trying to get the FA66 via the Firewire bus to work with the G4 specifically and am able to see input audio in the Mac preferences and also play audio (iTunes) out thru the FA66 to headphones. However the incoming audio is not picked up by any of the recording/editing packages that I have (Audacity, Sound Studio, Amadeus Pro, and Spin Doctor) All these 4 programmes work on a Griffin iMic via the USB bus no problems at all. I have read a lot of the Q&As on the Apple Mac forums and tried a few things to no avail and Edirol support say emphatically that the FA66 is OK. Have double and triple checked all my settings especially sampling rate and depth but still nothing. The other anomaly is that I expected to see an icon of the FA66 on the desktop but nothing, is this normal? Any thoughts, comments help of any sort would be most welcome John Caswell |

Following on from my last post I have managed to borrow a Phonic Firefly 302. Once connected via Firewire this was immediately recognised by both Amadeus Pro and Sound Studio (and I was able to record and playback OK), not at all by Audacity and only a 44.1Khz single channel by Spin Doctor.
Gets weirder as the days go on. John Caswell |

I have also FA-66 and it works fine. Just plugged the firewire cable and restarted my Mac. Only thing is - I can't get the optical input and output to work...
