Re: 828 Mk3 Live - and it died on stage!!!

Thanks Pappy. Ok to me, it's starting to seem most likely a power issue. Will a power conditioner always ensure enough voltage reaches my gear?? I have just been looking into them and they look like they only stop voltage peaks?? And there's a real price range ..what's the difference (apart from UPS...

Re: 8pre firewire connection problem

I lost the firewire connection like this once. I uninstalled all the MOTU drivers i could find, then reinstalled them. This fixed it. P.S. When i was reinstalling, i accidently installed the PowerPC drivers, as i have an intel mac this didn't work. So make sure you reinstall the right drivers for yo...

828 Mk3 Live - and it died on stage!!!

Hi, I just used the 828 mk3 live, and it froze up completely on stage. All the outputs went completely off, all the LEDs froze in their positions. Luckily (I guess) there was no horrible noise, it just fell silent. You can imagine our horror when this happened at a ticketed event, 2 minutes into the...
