Tascam Fw-1884 + Logic Problem Options

[THEPLACIDCASUAL]

I can't get logic to recognise the TASCAM FW-1884. I've downloaded the driver off the tascam site but when i open it nothing happens. My Mac isn't online so i downloaded the driver using the PC, burnt it and then tried it on the mac. Could that be the problem? It doesn't seem to do anything with a .sea file. Any ideas?

When i click on the FW1884bundle_logic_osx.sit a file appears called FW-1884.bundle, the icon just looks like a white page with a folded corner, clicking on this seems to do do nothing. It just says something about searching for the right application to open it. Any ideas?

.bundle files are usually hidden in the library folder

Check for library/audio/ or library/tascam or library/application support/
Mind there are 2 library folders one at the first level of the system drive, the other in your user folder.

There is a document describing the exact steps to follow to installe the FW1884 driver for Logic. It is called fw1884_logic_note_1_00.pdf. It tells you exactly where to put FW-1884.bundle: in "~/Library/Application Support/Emagic/MIDI Device Plug-ins"

I can copy the text from that pdf here if you want.

Note however that FW-1884.bundle is only the control surface driver. It is not the core audio driver, which must be installed first. You need to get another file for that:

I have a FW-1884 with Logic 6.3.3 on Mac OS X 10.3.2, so let me know if you need more help.
