I am having trouble with my Alesis Multimix 12 Firewire. I use Cubase E4 & Vista 32.
Occasionally it just doesn't work - I can see midi being triggered and levels on audio tracks jigging up and down , but no sound comes out. Sometimes it waits until I'm halfway through a project before it tells me that the Alesis has 'been removed'. Sometimes if I switch the Alesis on and off again it will resume working - other times it won't.
I use a Sony NR11Z Notebook and plug my Alesis into the mini firewire port. Alesis suggest that 'all firewires are not the same'... if I were to get an Expresscard 32 Firewire adapter would I get better performance from this? Or do I just need to use my Alesis as a mixer and buy a different interface? If I moan at Alesis and they agree to replace, is USB 2.0 fast enough?
Thanks in advance...
