I just got a Motu Ultralight to do multitrack recordings of my band. I've been recording to a GTech Firewire drive through my G4 Powerbook, no problems. I took my laptop and drive home to edit and mix and leave the wired up Ultralight in the studio. But when I try to playback in AudioDesk I get an error message that says I can't "play or record audio because the Motu audio system has been disabled".
i switched drivers in my Audio Midi setup so that they are internal. I tried to change the outputs on my individual tracks in AD to internal but the drop down is grayed out. I tried restarting the audio drivers under Setup. I also tried to Configure Audio System under Setup as well but that was grayed out. I've got the media and project files. Why do I need the Motu interface for playback? What can I do? Thanks Paul |

paul,
having no experience with the ultralite I cant give you specific advice; but one question, Are you working in a high resolution/high bit depth audio format that the Ultralite will play but your mac's onboard is not capable off dealing with? Just a thought.

Just a thought. Hi Jeremy 44.1, 16 bit is all. Nothing too demanding. Thanks P |
