I'm running DP 3.22 with Native Instruments B4 or Reason off the IAC bus. Haven't had trouble before, and now nothing but trouble. I hit play or record, and within seconds lock up.
Also, I've reinstalled both the B4, Reason, as well as OMS, (not DP), trashed preferences, etc. Is there some kind of wacky corruption within my IAC? I can work around with Reason (exporting audio), but miss my B4. New here, but appreciate any help |

QUOTE So why was OMS embraced by all these guys (as opposed to the seemingly more stable Free Midi?)? Because Apple made it seem like it was going to be part of OSX's MIDI core. I don't run OSX--because it's clearly not ready for prime time--but I think the main reason Apple chose OMS over Freemidi is price. Opcode being essentially dead, of course. However if I'm not mistaken OMS isn't involved with OSX after all. (Anyone?) However, OMS has been a nightmare for over a decade. OMS emulator always worked better, even with Opcode's own products. (Galaxy, for one.) FreeMIDI is so superior, it leaves you wondering why NI decided to rewrite the code for their products that run on OS9 to use such a piece of crap kludge. If R4 is any indication, B4 & Reason won't work with OMS emulator. Your IAC issues are probably a MIDI loop, and can be worked around. It's all pretty stable on my machine. Andrew |
