424 PCIe card not reading 24I/O on new Mac Pro!! - RESOLVED

Went to the expense of getting the PCIe card upgrade ($800)

Weird, because MOTU sells that upgrade for $295.00 US. Maybe you are using a different currency and I missed that.

Glad you got your problem worked out.

I have a simlular problem except my 424e is working. It's my 896hd and built-in card that's crashing DP.

You're right. I confused my PCIe upgrades, which cost me a fortune transferring from a G5 to a Mac Pro.

Well, it's unfortunate that people view this as a place to only come to or post when they have a problem, but it illustrates what some of the users tell others on this board: sometimes you get the impression things don't work well because only the people having problems post.

I've owned my MOTU 24 io for about two months now. I'm glad to post and to say that I've not had a single problem with it (other than not having a rack yet). I have it hooked up to my G5 through Logic Studio. It works like a champ and sounds great, even if it is through my Peavey's questionable preamps (to be upgraded soon). It has even survived one terrifying circuit breaker pop that killed the whole system without warning. I'm thrilled with it. Just thought I'd throw that in for your benefit, James.

+1 on the 24I/O here too, and I have two.

Guess that makes it +2.
