my firebox finally arrived today and after some dilemma of installing it im ready to go (or so at least i think)
So...
- when installing the firebox cd windows xp says i did not pass the WINDOWS LOGO testing to verify its compability in xp...i clicked "continue anyway" as the manual says to...so im just wondering...does this matter???
- also my firebox mixer menu refuses to appear on the screen...even thou it appears as an icon and in the taskbar when activated ...how do i fix this??? and do i need this mixer as cubase le also has a mixer.
- input 1 and 2 channel (instrument/mic) both work with mics and guitar plugged direct.
the manual says that when an instrument is plugged into the instrument input, the mic preamp is bypassed and the firebox becomes an active instrument preamp.it then notes that active instruments are those that have an internal preamp of a line level output...and they should be plugged into the line inputs on the rear (input 3&4)
in other words dont plug an active instrument into channel 1 or 2
so...does that mean if that i want to plug a guitar into a vamp/POD into the firebox that i cant use input 1&2 and have to plug it into the rear inputs 3&4.
thanks so much for reading thru that...any advice would be muchly appreciated.
