As a matter of fact, i work on an external hard disk (7200 rpm) which happens to be a lot faster than my internal drive. It is connected to Firewire 800. I read about the fact that according to presonus, external hard disks must be linked to the Firepod (it says it needs to be last in the chain) otherwise it may not function properly. So I sent an e-mail to Presonus and received a quick
answer advising to connect my external hard disc to the Firepod (Firewire 400) and connect the Firepod to the Powerbook claiming that the Firepod can't even take full advantage of s400 speed...It should help, this plus your tips... Again, I'll let you know... |

I tried to link my external hard disk as last in the chain: I don't seem to need to do the set up in audio/midi utiliy.... It works right away... BUT after an hour or so, the light turned off again for a couple of minutes... I decided to wait untill it would turn on
again (red this time) meaning I'd need to do the setup again... So only a slight improvement... I'm having a long session on next Friday, I'll report what happens... Thanks again, you'll hear from me soon, |

Hi there!
After a bunch of long recording sessions, plugging my external hard disc as last in the chain, I experienced a lot of further trouble... I actually also own a second Firepod that I intended to use later, when more than eight tracks would be needed... Unable to solve the problem, I decided to try my second Firepod for 3 sessions, each lasting 10 hours in a row... FLAWLESS! I didn't even have to do any set up, my Powerbook would immediately be happy, and the Firepod's light was shining blue for good! I reported this to Presonus and they told me that I was right, my Firepod unit is defective. Thanks for brainstorming! Groove on! |
