Hi everybody.

I use my Powerbook 15" 1.25 Go OS10.3.8, Cubase SX2 and Presonus Firepod as sound card. My problem is I need to reset audio/midi utility (Mac), change the sampling rate until synchro works properly and set up Mulitrac VST connections in Cubase. After doing that, the Presonus turns off every now and then... So I have to set everything up again. Sometimes it won't work so I'd restart the computer...Not very pleasant in recording sessions! I know Presonus do not provide any driver for Mac users.
Anyone familiar with this issue?
Any help more than welcome!

Thanks

Thanks for your reply. I've always had the same problem with OS10.3.6, 7, and now 8. There was no software included for Mac! Only for PC! I bought the Firepod in September 2004.

General reminder, don't email/PM the team to continue the troubleshooting, answer in the forums s that everyone can learn a little too wink.gif

Now…

Have you repaired permissions? Please. smile.gif

Do you use some power conditionner or at least a filter on mains? It may be bad main power causing hiccups.

From the download page at presonus, it is supported from 10.3.5 on… but unfortunately you're the first here complaining, I've searched the forums and people were only expecting the firepod so no help there.

From my search elsewhere, reactions are from enthusiasm to problems similar to yours, the only solutions were : don't plug anything FW on the mac save on the FW port remaining on the firepod. Also the firepod doesn't like being on a long time. Switch it off at least every 2 days.

Now the issues seem to be difficult to trace and solve. Have you contacted presonus? sad.gif
