Firewire bus reset for Logic and hardware

I'm running Logic Studio (9) through an mLan Presonus Firestation and Yamaha Motif Rack XS. I have an addition al firewire card installed attached to a Focusrite Liquid Mix. The system is stable but isn't so flexible. If I change sample rates by mistake or change devices in the wrong order, the mLan system loses sync with the computer. The ONLy way to get the sync back is to close all of my audio programs and REBOOT the mac. This of course disturbs my workflow. Is there a way to reset the firewire bus(ses) through a software option without rebooting ?

Hi there,
This may be of some help. There are a few links to other pager in there also.
It may help,

  • Need help on buying FIREWIRE/USB-compatible for Logic Pro 9.0.2 on my SL

    Hi...Im in needs of help in my new OS Mac World.Had my Logic Pro 9(9.0.2) install in my Snow Leopard(10.6.3).Need help on buying FIREWIRE/USB-compatible for Logic Pro 9.0.2 on my Snow Leopard.Just a real basic audio interface that works with my Macbook pro Specification.You're help will be much more appreciated..
    Best Regards:RatzyMazzy

    In any case I would suggest to get an audio interface which is *Core Audio* compatible. This means that you just need to plug it in and it will work with OS X’s integrated driver. I once had an M-Audio interface which needed its own driver and it had latency problems because of them. I am currently using the EDIROL FA-66 with 10.6.3 on my MacBook Pro. It still works flawlessly and has worked without problems in the past with 10.4 and 10.5, too. Here is how it looks like: http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.php?ProductId=731
    I have also heard good things about the FireWire interfaces from Presonus, like the FireBox.

  • Is M-Audio FireWire Solo ok for Logic 9 ?

    Is M-Audio FireWire Solo ok for Logic 9 ?

    Yes. All M Audio interfaces work very well with Macs running Lion and Logic Pro 9. It all just depends on what specs you're looking for in an interface. Assuming the FireWire solo meeting your demands in terms of sample rate, bit depth, and ins and outs, go for it!!

  • Can I check whole DB for logical and physical consistency?

    Assume I get somehow the impression that a part of a DB is somehow corrupted.
    E.g. due to hard disc sector errors or logical reference errors/changed foreign key values.
    How can I tell Oracle DB to check itself resp. to verify all the content inside for logical and physical integrity?
    Peter

    Use DBVerify to check corruption in the datafiles.

    Is your iPhone not showing up in iTunes sidebar, or is iTunes not just launching automatically?
    The things that you can check are:
    1) Launch iTunes manually
    2) Restart or reset your iPhone (http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281)
    3) Check your cable including disconnecting and reconnecting it on bot the phone end and the computer USB end.
    4) Reboot your computer
    5) As a last resort, take it to the Apple Store so they can check the hardware

  • The best DAW for Logic and big sample libraries... no more system overload

    I'm planning on going big and getting the Mac Pro Two 2.66GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 16 GB of RAM and add two additional 1 TB drives, one for samples and one for projects. It's been suggested that I include a RAID 5 and that it will make streaming of the samples faster and also safer and more reliable for backing up data.
    With my current setup I constantly have to freeze tracks of sampled instruments or I get system overload.
    Do I need RAID or am I better off without it?

    I'm not sure why you consider this a bad thing.
    Having to constantly freeze/unfreeze takes time and disrupts workflow. It's a good option to have if you need it, but much nicer if you don't.
    Johnny,
    I would strongly advise against diving straight in with 16GB of RAM. There are a lot threads around that discuss how much RAM Logic can even recognize, you should check them out. I don't remember the details very well, but I feel like 16GB was more that it can handle (maybe that was just for ESX...). In any case, don't buy a Mac pre-installed with all that memory; Apple charges way too much for their RAM, and you can find perfectly functional, guaranteed RAM from third-party sellers. I bought my Mac Pro with the base amount of RAM and have added as needed, and I recommend you do the same.
    When you play your projects, look at your CPU window.
    Look at the Audio and Disk I/O meters.
    If Audio is peaking, you need more CPU's
    If Disk I/O is peaking, a faster I/O on your hard drive is needed.
    I would also recommend doing this. Are you getting "core audio overload" messages, or another type? If you get core audio overload messages while your System Performance meters aren't peaking (or getting close to it), getting a faster machine isn't necessarily the answer. Core audio overloads are kind of tricky--some people with slower machines get them rarely, others with very fast machines get them often. If you haven't read up on this issue, I recommend you do so.
    I'm not too savvy on RAID arrays, but I have a few thoughts. How likely are you to need your PCI slots for other cards? The specs for the Mac Pro lists 3 PCI slots, which I believe means 3 empty ones, i.e. doesn't include the one that holds your graphics card. Do you expect to add a second graphics card? PCI based audio interface? Anything else like that? A RAID setup will occupy one of those PCI slots, just keep that in mind. Second, while a RAID 5 array is a pretty secure way to store your data, you ought to have an external backup drive anyway, so maybe it wouldn't be worth it ($700 for a RAID card, yikes!). Lastly, it's likely that any of the most popular 1TB drives (search barefeats.com for some articles on these) will be sufficient to do what you need them too. I don't know how involved your Logic sessions are, but I've never maxed out my disk I/O while using my Western Digital Caviar 640.

  • Which external firewire hard drive for protools and imac?

    hello group,
    i see many posts about external firewire hard drive issues. i would like to purchase a drive of 7200rpm or faster, 200gb or larger for recording with protools into an imac intel duo 2.0. hopefully theres a brand that i can buy that will just work out of the box. i have no mac troubleshooting skills and wish to avoid any compatability complications. is there a general consensus on a no brainer drive for mac newbies? thanks for any advice.
    jeff

    I highly recommend that Mercury Elite Pro drives from OWC as well. They are very stable and reliable due to their use of the Oxford 911 chipset and not the more common - and more problematic - Prolific chipset. I also use SuperDuper to make fully bootable clones of my internal drive for backing up everything.
    If their history for me and others continues with you, there should be absolutely no troubles for you using an OWC drive and Protools.

  • LabVIEW for Linux and hardware registers

    Hi all,
    I'm considering using LabVIEW for Linux in an upcoming project based around
    PC/104. As the only way to communicate to the PC/104 module inputs is via
    hardware addressing, I need to know whether it is possible to directly
    address hardware in LabVIEW for Linux. If not can you suggest a way of doing
    this? Also does LabVIEW for Linux and say RedHat make for a more stable
    system than LabVIEW for Windows and Windows 2000/XP?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,

    Hi Shane.
    I know that you can address hardware in Labview for Linux: I do it with an NI6071e,k 6602 and 6503. I don't know specifically about the PC/104, but I imagine it can also be done.
    Generally you can talk to the hardware registers using code interface nodes (CINs) in Labview. In the CIN you just use a 'write()' command. I don't think there's anything more to it than that. Creating the CINs is no trouble at all.
    Don't know about stability of Labview with Linux compared to windows, all though others tell me stability is pretty much the same.
    hope this helps and good luck!

  • How do i make a full diagnostic for software and hardware both?

    Hi everyone,
    because of my macbook pro(this is my first mac and only one i have) have been change logic board for three time, but i always use it nicely but still like this(maybe I overprotect it?),  recently i heard "pop" sound out from the air vent, i not sure what happen or maybe it just some random sound from surrounding, i just not sure because it happen not every noticeable, so i decide to do a full scan diagnostic on hardware and software, I have months not using my mac, do i have to do a clean install, to make sure everything working, I actually having some problem in the last time i use my mac, the problem is as below:
    1) the ooo sound problem as i mentioned earlier
    2) iwork not update properly
    3)apple hardware test not show up when press D instead internet recovery show up(only recently, before this everything fine)
    4)maverick a little unstable like mountain lion
    So how do i do full diagnostic an should i make a clean install instead?
    Thanks for helping!!!!

  • Lowest latency Firewire audio interface for Logic... which should I choose?

    Hi Guys,
    I'm about to replace my trusty Yamaha n12 with a dedicated firewire audio interface.
    My main requirement is super-low latency for running BFD and other virtual instruments, along with monitoring through Logic directly sometimes (to add effects to vocals in real-time, etc).
    I've narrowed down my choice (I think!!) to:
    - RME Fireface 800
    - Apogee Ensemble
    - MOTU 896 Mk3
    I have been told that the RME drivers are incredible, and hence it has the lowest latency.
    I'd love to hear from other Logic users who own any of the above! What kind of latency do you get (round trip in ms)? What is the lowest buffer setting you can use?
    Any downfalls or problems you've had with any of these interfaces?
    Thanks heaps guys, can't wait to hear some opinions!
    Cheers and thanks,
    Mike

    If yeloop is using BFD, then direct monitoring isn't going to help him. That is for audio in.
    Exactly.
    FWIW, on MOTU Ultralites, I get a little (less than 1 ms) less latency with the Mk 1 rather than the Mk 3.
    Perhaps the built-in DSP slows the Mk 3 down?
    Interesting--thanks for the info (one more reason not to upgrade MOTU, frankly...)!
    It is still 4.3 ms at 32 samples with the Mk 3. For MIDI controlled VIs, it would be less than that.
    I think I measured 3.9ms with my Traveler mk2 at 44.1k with a 32 sample buffer. So, it's a bit faster than the mk3. At 96k I can use a 32 sample buffer to get 2.5ms latency, but I can't run BFD2 with a 32 sample buffer. Best I can do with BFD2 is a 64 sample buffer at 96k... 3.16ms.
    But, you're exactly right, Thomjinx: with a VI, you won't hear that full amount of latency. Assuming the MIDI latency is negligible, the VI response time will be roughly 1/2 the full analog audio latency. (Logic reports both of the these figures--output latency and full roundtrip latency--if you click on the latency info in the Audio preferences. Be aware, though, that some devices report this information correctly, while others do not. For instance, with the Apogee and Metric Halo products I've used, the numbers reported by Logic are exactly correct, while with MOTU, the numbers shown in Logic are lower than reality: with a 64 buffer at 44.1k the Traveler mk2 indicates 4.3ms roundtrip latency with Logic, but I measured it as 5.6ms... so you may be misled if you try to use the latency values reported by Logic to compare products... in that regard, MOTU seems to cheat, while Apogee and Metric Halo follow the rules

  • What is the best MIDI controller for Logic, and is Axiom Pro the only line with "Hyper Control?

    What is the best MIDI keyboard/control surface to use with LOGIC (Studio - which I assume is the latest & greatest version) and is Axiom Pro the only line that has Hyper control? I already own the Axiom Pro 61, but prefer more keys, and though I like much about it, the keys aren't very easy for playing more complex material, and there is an obvious delay regarding attack response (esp. noticeable at faster speeds). There are other issues as well I've read of regarding key sticking (though I consider myself lucky mine do not, there is nontheless a sluggish clunckiness issue which neither helps agility/acuracy nor the delay factor.) and the unit not lasting very long before it breaks and needs repairing. And lastly, I am no fan of Avid and care not to support them in the least.

    Sorry, but is this an iPad question? Axiom Pro 61 is not an iPad-compatible peripheral, so perhaps you mean to post in the Logic forum?

  • Firewire Card Recommendation for Duende and/or Ensemble

    I am in the process of moving from a PPC to a Quad core 3.0 machine. Can anyone recommend a PCIE firewire card for running the Duende or the Apogee card?
    I'm looking for something with 800 and 400 ports.
    I've loaded this machine up with 16gb ram and 4 drives, is there anything I need to know as far as tweaks, any specific pcie slot to install the fw card as well as a UAD2 card?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    http://www.sonnettech.com/product/fw_adapter.html
    I don't know about Ensemble or Duende but my Motu works on a LeCie D2 connected to the FW800 port of my G5 without problems...
    seems to be more faster... but in any case just an adapter to be sure about stay close to FW800 commectors.
