Hi there!
i was just about to buy me the m-audio audiophile usb interface when a local apple dealer told me that the compatibility between a macintosh and any interface except for emagic stuff is null! is that true? the real problem here is that the emagic 6/2 interface costs a hundred bucks more than the audiophile interface! does anybody have experiences, good or bad? how about this story,does he just want to sell emagic stuff, or is it true? |

Wow Bevlev. You've had some bad luck! Odd because I've had the exact opposite experience with my M-Audio products, I guess I should count my lucky stars. I owned the Oxygen before "upgrading" to the Ozone. I use the MIDISport 2x2 for live shows and a MIDISport 4x4 for my home studio. The Ozone acted up on me once while recording within Cubase SX, other than that, never a days bother on anything.
Although, as I think about it, I've only used my M-Audio gear within Mac OS X, looks like your running OS 9 (based on the apps you listed) perhaps the M-Audio OS 9 drivers are wacky. I can see why you'd be salty though, I'd be salty too. I have the same horrible experience with my Digi-001, always flakey - "disappearing" from my system, but others on the DUC never have any issues, so I can feel your pain. Rickenbacker: You're right, the Cubase form prolly isn't the best place to get a fair shake on Emagic stuff, forgive me, the dayQuill has had me the past few days... |
