Tascam US-122 driver for Logic 8 In Leopard

Does any one out there have a tascam US-122. I downloaded what tascam said was the most recent driver for leopard. the devise has been recognized in the audio midi setup application & the green light is on and when I play notes on my keyboard the red midi in light flashes but the midi out light is not active. Only the internal speakers are producing sound even though I have chosen the tascam as my sound output.
Greatfull for any help

The L2 Cache will not be as important as the RAm or HD speed. For Logic, I would recommend the 200GB 7200RPM drive for best performance. If I were to decide between 2.5Ghz with the 5400rpm drive or 2.5GHz with the 7200RPM, i would pick the 2.4GHz 7200RPM.. just my 2 cents.

Hard drives for logic, what to look for?

Hi peeps, I'm looking at getting a new internal hard drive for my Mac Pro exclusively for my Logic 9 projects
obviously speed will be a factor in how many audio tracks I can use etc, but what other features are beneficial to logic? cache size etc
more importantly are there any drives out there that just don't play nice with logic, which are the ones to avoid at all costs?,
any positive recommendations of specific drives that are known to work well with DAWs?
any advice would be great
thanks, Robert

I've been using a 250GB Maxtor sense 2004. No problems with it. Gonna get a 1TB soon. Probably will be another Maxtor. Your milage may vary

How important is the MBP L2-cash for Logic 8 and Leopard?

I want to get myself a new MacBook Pro so that I can also work with Logic 8 at home. The smallest MBP has *3 MB* L2-cash, the two bigger ones have *6 MB* L2-Cash. Shall I take the bigger one for working with Logic 8? Does the L2-Cash make a big difference for Logic 8? I will have 4 GB of Ram in my MBP.
Thanks!

Format external drive for use with both Leopard & XP, & maybe Win7

I want to repurpose one of my old small Firewire drives to use with both Leopard and XP via Boot Camp on my MacBook. It is is 60GB and is currently formatted with MacOS Extended Journaled, and Apple Partition Map. I don't think I will have any need at the present time to store files of more than 4GB on it (most of the ones I want to store are no more than a few hundred MB each).
Is using FAT32 with Master Boot Record adequate? Up until now I have just used flash drives for external Windows storage, but I would like to consolidate lots of topographic maps files onto this one Firewire drive instead of using multiple flash drives, and use these files with both Leopard and XP. If I want to try Windows 7 in the future via either Boot Camp or virtualization, will there be a problem with FAT32/MBR?

Hi,
using FAT32 as file system and MBR as partition table should work just fine with OSX and all Windows versions up to 7.
And since your files don't come close to 4GB single-file-size, that FAT32 limitation is no hinderance.
Use Disk Utility to do this, since Windows won't format partitions/drives with more than 32GB to FAT32 (built-in limitation).
Nonetheless it can use such partitions (I have a 200GB on my external HD).
Regards
Stefan

Erased Hard Drive for Clean Install of Leopard, Hard drive is gone!

I put in my Leopard Install disk to do a clean install of everything as I was going to give this iMac to someone. I erased the hard drive and then started the Leopard install. It stopped half way through and that was that! Now the hard drive does not appear as my Macintosh HD anymore. When I open disc utility, it lists it as just a 150MB hard drive; no name, no volume. If I try to format it again, it says "resource busy". If I try to install Leopard, it just keeps looking for a drive to install it in. Bummer. Any ideas how I can get my hard drive to be recognized again? It is an iMac G5, 5 years old with no other problems before this. Thanks.

Try shutting down (powering off). Then start it up again using your Mac OS X installation disc, and run Disk Utility as you did before. This time, try going to the Partition tab (instead of using the Erase tab). Reset the +Volume Scheme+ to *1 Partition*, even if it already has only one partition. Click the Options button, and make sure it is set for *Apple Partition Map*. Name the volume +Macintosh HD+, set the Format to +Mac OS Extended (Journaled)+, and Apply.
See if that works any better.

How to create a bootable drive for 10.5.8 Leopard?

I wonder if I can use the DVDs following the machine with the Old system of Leopard in order to create a boot drive when my system now is updated to 10.5.8?
Not sure where those recovery disks / system disks are.
Can I createa a boot disc or drive for 10.5.8 without the installation disks?
Or can I create a boot disc from the existing system files on my mac?

Ok. Just to be sure, my Macintosh Hd now contains 180GB of data and the total size is 240GB. So Superduper will "understand" based on my settings? that Superduper is only suppose to make a boot of the system and utilites not the entire 180 GB of information?
No, I'm afraid not. It will clone everything.
I forgot that you don't have the DVDs. This is how you'd get a system only boot drive.

I can make this with a partation size on another drive of about 40GB?
If you had a way of getting a fresh install I know from experience that a 20GB partition would work, (maybe smaller).
Best way is get an ext HD of at least 240GB ideally. Clone it, (and boot from it to check it works). Boot back into your regular drive and do the update on that. Is this clone your only backup strategy?

Hard drives for Logic Pro 8, Final Cut, After Effects, etc.

Hello gang, although i have read through many threads re: hard drive configs for different people's uses on many different forums (thats why i am here to get it straight from the apple's mouth) that i frequent and contribute to I have read everything from '10k drives only give a slight speed to boot up times' to 'with these 10k drives my machine is FLYING/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png'. The ladder posted by a crazy i am sure . So, If i were to purchase 2 10k drives (raptors are my only choice?) and use one for osx and my programs and the other for my scratch disk would i then use the stock 250 seagate that came with the machine as my itunes, pictures drive (i have an external FW800 750 seagate for back ups)? If i were to do this sort of configuration what would be my benefits if any at all? I had posted this in another forum and it pretty much had me more confused as people were going back and forth as to their PERSONAL preferences and it ran the gamut . I was hoping someone that uses the programs in the subject line or know what the new drives would do to make workflow more efficient. THIS IS THE LONGEST POST EVER. Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated. This is my 1st Mac Pro so i would like to set this lovely lady up correctly. Again, thank you for making it this far if you have .
Best,
Pandasarus

Yes, the latest 300GB VelociRaptor is still king, and one G5 owner (not Mac Pro) installed three and was very pleased.
http://www.barefeats.com/hard103.html
There are other options.
A WD Caviar 640GB would do fine.

RAID configurations of SAS vs SATA:

TB drives: http://www.barefeats.com/hard94.html
Boot drive (doesn't have every model):
http://www.barefeats.com/harper9.html
I would go with 3 drives.
Backups: always have two or more so one is safe and off-line, things happen. TimeMachine plus SuperDuper backup clones combination.
Boot drive with just OS and applications, media drive, editing, and so you want to have a stripped scratch RAID.

How to format an external hard drive for vista and snow leopard?

I want to format an external hard drive to attach to Airport Extreme base station to us with Snow Leopard and a PC with Vista. What format should I use for read/write access for both?

I use NTFS for my external drives being used on both Macs and Windows. To get the Mac to write to NTFS, you need a separate program. I use Paragon for Mac software. It works behind the scenes. There are also some free things that do the same thing but I found them cranky and unreliable. YMMV.
Windows can not read any of the Mac disk formats without additional software.. FAT32 is fine but is extremely limited.
For the last year, I have had absolutely no problems on any computer, Mac or Windows.

No disrespect to you personally but we have no way of knowing what you might consider obvious. As often as not, when someone neglects to mention what they have already tried to solve a problem in an initial post, it turns out that they have overlooked trying something many of us would consider obvious, so experience has taught us to start there.
Beyond that, a lot of users are apparently just too lazy or lack the skill to look for answers on their own, not even bothering to search these forums for existing discussions relevant to their issue before firing off a terse post much like yours (lots of extra punctuation & some all caps shouting for emphasis but little info). That sort of thing strongly suggests that they haven't tried the obvious, whether it is true or not.
As it turns out, if you search this forum for "eSATA driver" you will find some very relevant topics in the top results, so you might want to check them out now.

What are some good Plugin packages for Logic - must be Leopard Compatible

I'm new to Logic, heck, Mac in general. On my PeeCee I used Nuendo v.1 and had the Waves Diamond Bundle. I'm looking for something with comparable abilities that's Leopard compatible. Also, I really can't afford the Waves stuff at this point, price is a HUGE consideration for me.
I'm seriously considering going to Logic Studio (use Express right now) to gain the multitude of instruments and Plugins. In your experience, are the plugins included in Logic Studio good enough that I'd get what I need using them and not have to find another package (for the time being at least)?
Thanks in advance for your help!

There aren't any classes in the API to do that, but there are 3rd party libraries that can do that. Just google.

External hard drive for iMac with snow leopard and window XP

I have snow leopard with windows XP ON MY MAC. WHICH EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE SHOULD I USE

Any make and model of any size will work. But if yoyu plan on using it for both Windows and Mac OS X it needs to be formatted FAT32 or exFAT.

Formatting a USB flash drive for Mac OS X Leopard & Windows XP

I'm pretty new to Mac, so forgive me if this seems a very basic question.
How do I format a USB flash drive so that it can be seen by both an Imac running Mac OS X Leopard and a PC running Windows XP?
If one or other machine can't see the drive it makes transferring files really frustrating.
Your advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

You can either use Windows or OSx to format the flash drive to FAT32. This will allow you to read and write from OSx and Windows. If you just bought the flash drive then double check before you format as it may already be formatted to FAT32.
Use Disk Utility from OSx to format your flash drive OR from windows, click on *My Computer* and then highlight the drive letter and choose File from the top menu and then Format.

Only one channel from Tascam US-122

On my Mac OS X [10.4.2] I just connected the Tascam US-122 audio interface.
I did not upload any of the recording software like Cubase that came with it. The problem is that when I play back anything from ITunes or Garageband, I only get one channel of the stereo recording. This happens both trhough headphones or through line out connected to my stereo. MIDI works fine, but there seems to be only channel playing back at all times. Any help? The wait times for Tascam help are unbearable.

Check to see if your resolution and sample rate settings are set for 2 channel audio. Double click on your Macintosh HD and follow this string to where the settings are set:
Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup/Audio Devices/System Settings/Default Input: (your Tascam US-122)/Properties For: (your Tascam US-122)/Audio Input/Format/44100.0 Hz 2ch-16bit. Also check your Default Output/Audio Output settings for your Tascam US-122, they should also be set at 44.1 kHz and 2ch-16bit.
Also if you are going to install Cubase LE, especially if you have OS X Tiger (10.4.x), be sure that you have Cubase LE 1.08, because there is an installer incompatibility with Tiger and Cubase LE 1.07. There should be somethimg about this incompatibility at the Tascam website. Or better yet, I would recommend Logic Express 7. It interfaces seamlessly with GarageBand. Besides they have to give Cubase LE away free because being originally engineered for PC's, and then re-engineered for Mac as an afterthought, it is left-brain difficult to learn and work with. Apple Logic is much more right-brain user friendly.

Should i use a separate HDD for Logic?

I've read some info that using a separate drive for Logic improves performance, so it is an option I am thinking of taking. BUT does having an external drive connected via firewire800 actually outperform the internal drive (performing all tasks) connected by SATAII?
Should I keep Logic Pro and all it's loops etc on the main/os drive with just the projects on an external one?
or, install Logic on the external drive?
Also, I'm wondering if my 2008 2.4GHz 20' iMac can have 2 internal drives installed, possibly small SSDs?

Hi,
it is most convenient to have an external 7.200 RPM firewire 800 drive for recording audio (or even better a second internal within a Mac Pro ), while keeping Logic installed on the System drive (you won't be able to install Logic elsewhere, anyhow). You could, however, install some of Logic's additional content on an external drive if HD space is an issue, but that has nothing to do with recording performance.
For heavy audio recording, keep the drive you want to record to a dedicated drive.
SSD is nice, but expensive. Think twice if you really, really need it.
