896HD Lost Disk

Post by PauliePod »

I have an old 896HD I'd like to start using again. Unfortunately, I have lost the install disk. Can anyone please help me find the audio drivers and perhaps a cuemix console download?

Thanks,
-P

Yes I did. I haven't gotten very far with them. That's why I am posting here. They are obtuse, and only work bankers hours. I'm hoping I can get direct, helpful answers from someone here.

OK, I found the download for windows xp/32:

Everything works fine except that none of my settings hold after a computer shut down, a MOTU shut down or a disconnect. I can't even load a preset I made and saved, because they seem to have been erased as well.

Any ideas?

I have several older drivers in my collection as I had tried them all at one time or another. Do you have any idea which one you need (or want)? You can email me at hswin@att.net.

Since it's an 896 HD I'd suggest no later than 3.6.7.4 for a driver version. Later ones are more specifically written for the MkIII hardware.
