Re: Latest driver updates FireWire

Windows FireWire driver 3.085 and Mac driver 3.22 bring these changes:

Re: Latest driver updates FireWire

Windows FireWire driver V 3.089 brings these changes:

- New: number of WDM devices can now be defined in the Settings dialog. A reduction accellerates the change of the sample rate, reduces the time of continued CPU load, brings quicker behavior on plugging and unplugging the unit, and reduces the boot time of Windows with connected interface. The best setting is 0, means no WDM devices at all. Only ASIO and MIDI are active then. A typical setting is 1 to 3 devices (WDM for Media Player etc.), also causing a much quicker behavior than full WDM channel count.

- Workaround for bug in Windows FireWire bandwidth management (no playback after several start/stops with change of the sample rate)

- In specific cases after changing the sample rate from/to single/double/quad speed a wrong buffer size was reported

- TotalMix FX 0.999

- Note: this driver version requires DIGICheck version 5.71 or higher!

Re: Latest driver updates FireWire

Windows FireWire driver 3.091 includes a fix for the Fireface 400, where the encoder could not change the level when the new option WDM Devices was set below maximum.

Re: Latest driver updates FireWire

Windows FireWire driver 3.092 brings TotalMix FX 1.00 with some changes and  bugfixes that we consider serious and urgent, although most users were not affected:

- Several bugfixes when loading workspaces (possible graphics problem after loading the same workspace multiple times; possible hang after multiple loading of workspaces with an Aux device setting; possible incorrect loading of Mac or iPad workspaces).

- Changed Channel Layout: removed column 'active'. The list now only shows the channels that are currently present, depending on the actual sample rate. This also fixes wrong channel names when using the option 'Count MADI Channels per port' with MADI devices.

- Global Trim Gains is now switched off with the Global Trim button only

Users of Fireface 400 and 800 don't need to update as the driver itself is unchanged to version 3.091.

Re: Latest driver updates FireWire

The latest FireWire Driver 3.100 brings TotalMix FX 1.05. Differences to the former 1.03 from driver 3.099:

- Fireface 800 default channels have been changed from AN 9/10 to AN 1/2 for Mains, and to AN 9/10 for Phones 1. These new values will only be set when TM FX is installed for the first time, or a Total Reset has been performed.
- MIDI fixed for the newly supported 'old' interfaces, fixing also various related side effects

Re: Latest driver updates FireWire

The latest Windows FireWire Driver 3.110 brings TotalMix FX 1.07. There are no changes in the FW driver or TM FX when using FireWire. An update is needed if you use interfaces with both USB and FW, to prevent an older version of TM FX being installed.
