i've got my FireBox up and running on my PowerBook G4 1.5GHz with the included Cubase LE. Plug and play, minimal setup. Almost all is good.
Only one thing now. There is an awful lot of hiss and coming through the headphones with direct monitoring and playback. i thought that digital recording is supposed to be clean, except for the clipping that can occur. Any thoughts or advice on how to minimize the hiss? Thanks -------------------- Chuck

S0, I bought a Firefox and had the whine issue. I returned it. Then I learned about the NAP issue. So I installed CHUD and went back and tried a new (different) Firebox. It worked perfectly... WITHOUT messing with NAP.
So, was it the Firebox I got the first time? The firewire cable? Or is it just chance? Frankly, I love my firebox now. But I can't tell you if the NAP thing is always the solution or if it is, indeed, the root of the problem. My new Firebox is quiet and sounds great with my G4 Powerbook (1.67 GHz).
