Imic And Opcode Vision On Os9 Options

[abbie]

Has anyone successfully used the iMic with Opcode Vision successfully. I have tried and get severe stuttering on the playback. I am running OS 9.1 with Vision DSP 4.5.1. on a 400 mhz iMac that has a couple of USB ports and one unused firewire as well.

Thanks

The iMic maker's website has updated drivers that should fix this.

I run SVPro and Vision 4.5 in the real OS 9.1 on my G4 and for some bizare reason my imic kills the audio out in OS 9 and yet it works in OS X.

I must have missed something at that website but I can't find any such driver or even update driver. I thought that imic uses the apple usb drivers. However I could be wrong.

Apparently the iMic should work properly with OS 9.2.2 since that level provides an updated usb audio driver. You can get an ASIO driver from the Griffin site which is probably the same one that you already have.

I discovered a klugy way of getting it to work with 9.1 (since I don`t feel like upgrading). If I setup the iMic and start Vision and select AppleSound Manager then select SoundManager and then select AppleSound Manager again, it works. This will delete any plug-in assignments, however, so it has be done before I would do any mixing setup.

Many thanks for passing on the "secret" for getting the imic to work in 9.

I'll give a try when I get back to my studio today.
