Re: Core Audio/MOTU 828 problems

2008-05-17 by pete_buchwald

TIm,

With my MOTU 8-pre I sometimes get that going on when certain firewire drives are 
attached.  Some don't cause problems some do. 

My popping and crackle is between the interface and a digital mixer.  But, I'm pretty sure 
it's the firewire variable in the equation that determines whether things go haywire or not.

Maybe that's it for you, maybe not?

Pete
