I've had an MBOX for close to a year and a half now. Everything was fine until I got a new Powerbook G4 1.25 The MBOX has never been so troublesome. I'm running Panther 10.3.2 (part of the problem I'm sure).From high pitch bursts of white noise to not recording properly, i've just had it up to my eyeballs with the thing. I'm anxious to see the new Edirol FA-101, which seems to be much better than the M-Audio Firewire 410, but am I fine with what I have? It seems that the issue is software related, but I'm tired of waiting on
Pro tools Le 6.2.3. I just want to keep moving and get results. I'm really spinning wheels here. This post has been edited by digikid: Mon 1 Mar 2004, 14:49 |

I use a Powerbook 1.25 GHz running Panther 10.3.2, 2 MB RAM, a Great River 1NV through an Mbox running Pro Tools LE 6.2.3, Soundelux U195 and AEA R84, and ADAM P11 monitors. I'm happy with the sound of my band's demos. I look foward to trying a Millennia TD-1 patched through the Mbox using the same mics. I also use a Metric Halo ULN2 and Nuendo, Mbox and Garageband (set up in Digidesign Core Audio), and the ULN2+DSP with Tracktion, as well as the ULN2+DSP through the Mbox just for kicks.
