Emax

I've been trying for 7 hours now and feel like I've gotten no where. 
I've used c6, dsp-quattro, Peak and sample manager.

So far the only thing I've been able to do is get DSP-Quattro to save samples from my emax.

Every other time I've attempted this I get the error message I mentioned in my previous post about a bad ack message at packet 0000 or occasionally 0002.

Anyone here have any suggestions? I've been using a MOTU micro lite, but have also tried a midisport 1x1. 

Sadness. Perhaps I will have to cave in and buy an old mac? 
Look out for my next series of post asking about Alchemy and Sound Designer. 
;-)

Thanks guys!
