mistahclean Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I've just purchased a quad-core Intel Mac running Leopard. I use Logic Pro 8 with a Tascam FW-1884. The Tascam works beautifully on my old G5 (with Logic 8 & Tiger), but there appear to be some issues with the new setup. Logic does not recognize the FW-1884, and the FW-1884 icon doesn't show up in the control surfaces device list. If I set the FW-1884 manager control protocol to "Mackie Control Emulation" and set the control surface preferences to Logic Control, I get some reasonable results, but not ideal (can't use the eq control). I also have to power cycle the Tascam 3 or 4 times to get it working after turning on my computer. If any one has any ideas on how to get the FW-1884 up and running, it would be greatly appreciated!

mistahclean Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 8.0.2 seems to have taken care of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbguitar Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Since you've got some experience with this... Do you know if the fw-1884 will work with Logic Express 8??? I am thinking about getting a new iMac and getting it with Logic Ex preloaded. I have the fw-1884 already and have used it successfully with PC apps like Sonar. Thanks for any info you can provide on Logic Ex and the 1884. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistahclean Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Don't know why it wouldn't, I don't think Apple would exclude the drivers for LX. It'll certainly run in Mackie mode. Once it's set up, it runs nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
