Sound Drivers For Ibook, recording on ibook to tonos/Edirol UA-3 Options

[remulak]

Does anyone have experience with tonos? (www.tonos.com)
I am trying to record on tonos' downloadable 8-track recorder (TC-8)
on my ibook, using an interface from Edirol (UA-3).
I am having trouble getting the tonos program to recognize the sound input
as the USB input. When I select USB input on Soundmanager, I get sound from
the built-in mic on my ibook (acoustic room sound).
I was advised to install DirectX sound drivers, but it didn't work, and I'm wondering if there's a better sound driver specifically for mac.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks, damann, for your reply.
I'll see what Edirol can do about a sound driver that works for mac.
There must be other people trying to use Edirol UA-3 on mac. I guess
I have to contact Edirol's tech support again. The last time I contacted them,
the tech guy was going to download the Tonos 8-track program and try to
get it to work with their product.
I bought the thing because they said it's mac-compatable, and it has a
wide variety of analog input jacks. It does work just fine on another
program I have, SoundEdit, but that is not a multitrack program.
Just out of curiosity, case I end up using the UA-3 as a hockey puck,
is there another USB input device you would recommend for recording
live, analog instruments to Tonos? I was thinking, great, Tonos' 8-track is
only about thirty bucks, the Edirol input is supposed to work for mac-I'm
good to go.
Maybe it's better to start all over and use some other setup, but first
I'll see what Edirol can come up with. Thanks! Remulak.
