I recently bought a second-hand G4 Powermac Dual Processor. 450mhz, 256mb RAM, 60gb HD, with OS Xv1.5

I installed Mac Panther, because you can't upgrade from 10.1 to 10.2.8 any more.

After struggling with a Firewire410, I traded it for a M-Audio Ozone USB interface/keyboard and the Steingberg Studio Case.

The Ozone works fine under Panther - pre-amps, MIDI, interface, everything. huh.gif

I then installed Cubase SE. Again, no problems at first...until I tried to print out a section of the manual. The printer no longer worked. I removed the Cubase dongle, updated the printer drivers and tried again. Phew!

Next morning, I installed the VSTis in the Studio Case - D'cotaSE, HALlionSE,Virtual Guitarist EESEGrooveAgentSE and The GrandSE. Cubase struggled to recognise them via the Devices>Virtual Instruments menu.

Then the mouse stopped working; then the keyboard stopped working; then Cubase repeatedly "terminated unexpectedly", every time I tried to open it. Then the printer packed up again!

I only have two USB slots on the back of the Mac and so, am using a four-port, powered USB hub. The Ozone interface goes into the Mac and the keyboard, scanner, printer and dongle are in the hub. The mouse is off the keyboard.(In fact, the mouse has just stopped, as I write. angry.gif, until I stuck it into the hub.blink.gif)

I feel that the problem is here, but don't have enough knowledge to correct it. Can any of you guys spot anything obvious?

(I can't find any new drivers specifically for Cubase SE and I don't know whether SL or SX is the right one.)

I have had similar problems with SL and 10.3.2
The Cubase driver does not work properly with Panther only with 10.2 which is the recommended OS in the SL/SX manual.
I talked with the company who supplied my Cubase and they said the Steinberg rep was in 'last week' and knew the problems and described the same bugs that I am getting.
The new driver is supposedly 'in development' for 10.3, but a rep would say that to a supplier wouldn't he.
I am also assured a new 10.3 compatible Cusasis is soon to be released 'in the next few months'
I guess its jam tomorrow but ships biscuits 'til then. java script:emoticon(':rolleyes:')
