Topic: Fireface Mixer Demo disappears within 5 seconds

Hello,

I'm thinking about buying a Fireface UFX, so I wanted to have a look at the Fireface Mixer Software, espacially TotalMixFX.
My Computer is a MacBook Pro with OSX 10.5.8

I've installed TotalMixFX 0.942, but I was not able to open any Mixer oder Matrix window.
I'm not sure if TotalMix needs a connected Soundcard to run properly, so I downloaded and installed the Fireface Mixer Demo 2.56.

In the Mixer Demo I can switch between a Mixer and a Matrix View, but none of them stays more than five seconds on my screen before it disappears. Even if I'm holding or moving a fader with the mousebutton. When I minimize the mixer window it also disappears out of the Dock at the bottom after a few seconds. I have no additional software running in the background as far as I can assess.

Now I have two questions:
1.) Does TotalMix FX need a connected Soundcard to show Mixer or Matrix windows?
2.) Do you have any solution for my disappearing Mixer Window?

Thank you for your answers.

1. Yes.
2. No. The demo is TM, not TM FX, and just way too old.
