Hey All,
I posted this over at the tascam forums as well, but I figured I'd try to reach a different audience by posting here, as well.
I'm getting clicks and pops with my FW-1884 and my PowerMac G5. I have Logic Pro 7 and OS X 10.4.8. I also have an M-Audio Octane hooked up to the 1884 via ADAT. The clicks and pops happen regardless of whether it is hooked up or not. They happen at all latency & buffer settings.
I know this issue is specific to the G5, because I hooked up my old B&W G3 (upgraded to G4) with the exact same software and didn't notice any clicks or pops after recording about 30 minutes of different tests. The old B&W didn't even click at the lowest latency settings... Go figure. The G5 is a dedicated DAW with almost no other software on it. The G3 has a ton of stuff on it and until today wasn't even set up as a DAW.
I noticed some posts that mentioned it could be the G5's built-in Firewire. Has anyone had any success using an add-on card? Did it solve the clicks/pops? I'm thinking of trying this, but I don't want to waste the cash if it's not the problem.
Any input would be great. Thanks,
Rick
