ryan7585 Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Hey guys, I just got a Digi 002 and I'm having a hard time getting it to work properly with Logic. It detects the inputs and they work, but there's latency and the Digi 002 seems to be in this dumb mode where it can't do anything but be an input. Is this a common problem? I thought you were supposed to be able to use them together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplets Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Welcome to the world of crappy Digidesign drivers! You have to go to the Digi website to see which drivers to use for the Digi 002 if you're using Logic 9 under Leopard or Snow Leopard.

logic8mine Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Granted, I've only owned M-Audio interfaces but, they are essentially the same protocol and I've never had issues- even without driver updates and moving from Tiger to Leopard to Snow... Not really enough info however to decipher what's going on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryan7585 Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 Yeah I saw that, regarding getting it to work with Logic I don't see anything there. I think I'm just gonna sell it. Any reccomendations on something I could get with as good or better preamps? And at least 8 of them? (I didn't know the Digi 002 only had 4 when I got it-- blast!)

(I didn't know the Digi 002 only had 4 when I got it-- blast!) Metric Halo, RME, Apogee, Motu. For the control surface features, either the Euphonix MC or the Mackie Control. Be dead sure you have removed every smidge of the Digi core audio and MIDI drivers before installing a new interface. Lest you be cursing the day you were born!

I didn't install anything, but I had an MBOX before that so when I plugged it in it worked fine with protools with no additional drivers. You think the drivers the MBOX installed will hurt whatever I get in the future? FYI- I'm thinking MOTU, that seems to be the most common recommendation. 896mk3 probably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplets Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Motu is the best intermediate interface before spending the big bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n6smith Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Motu is the best intermediate interface before spending the big bucks. +1 In fact for me, my Motu Ultralite has been rock solid and so I have no reason to upgrade something far more expensive.... But given you need 8 pres... you might want to take a look at the Motu 8Pre... or preferably the newer 896 Mk3. If you are needing better (relatively speaking) preamps.. (Though from the few times i have used the 8Pre, it sounded good to my ears at least) then maybe it's worth looking at a higher priced range from another company....

fader8 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I didn't install anything, but I had an MBOX before that so when I plugged it in it worked fine with protools with no additional drivers. You installed Pro Tools, which installs the Core Audio driver for the M-box. When you get a new interface, delete the core audio driver files for the M-box. It will still work fine with PT as PT does not use core audio. Anybody tried the Apogee Ensemble? Many happy Ensemble users here in these forums.

edwoodski Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Hi just to let you know, I use my 002 with logic 9, and it works fine. Go to the digi website and download the digi core audio manger. And it all should be easy and self explanatory. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halpin1982 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Hi, ditto above - 002 works as a soundcard fine, although I wish there was a way to get the control surface to work in Logic too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
