Hi there Gecko Zzed. I just purchased a Presonus Firepod from around 2009. I have a brand new M2 Mac mini and I'm trying to find the drivers needed to get the Firepod up and running. I know that Presonus does not have any of their own drivers for current Macs, but somewhere on this site I read that you were able to make the Firepod work with a newer version of Windows. Any advice would be highly appreciated.

Hallo Tim, Gerd hier aus Dreieich. Ich habe auch (2) M-3500 in gutem Zustand, allerdings rauschen die Controllroom und Phones Out bei beiden Pulten. PSU's hab ich schon getauscht, trotzdem weiterhin vorhanden. Wenn Du ein paar Tips zur Refurbishing für mich hättest, würde ich mich freuen.

Hi, I have a few MTR12 machines here in the UK and looking for any spares that may be available, if you have any I will be more than interested to take them off your hands. Regards
Trevor.

My 788's rewind and stop buttons don't work. I tried the spray method you described but it didn't help - other than for a little while right after I do the spraying. Your thoughts about this and also more about your experience with the 788 dissassembly would be much appreciated. You can email me at iamsetsetiam@gmail.com. Thanks, Set
