M-audio Firewire 1814 - anyone using it successfully?
I'm having lots of problems with the M-Audio Firewire 1814 interface - constantly changing volume and input levels, etc.
E.g. when I switch on - the mic input level is rarely the same twice. I have read on this forum that these are common problems. Many people think that it is a firmware issue. Has anyone found a solution / workaround / help from M-Audio? Is there a software version that works better than others? Would I get fewer problems if I used an Intel Mac? Pro Tools M-Powered 7.3 Mac OSX 10.4.8 iMac G5 1.8 Thanks for your help. Richard |

Thanks for the quick reply.
My 1814 lists the following on the control panel ABOUT tab: bootloader: 2004-03-30 02:59:09 +0100 firmware: 2006-02-08 14:42:41 +0000 hardware: model 131 version 1 GUID: 0xD6C04002DC193 I cannot see any firmware updates for the 1814 listed on the M-Audio website. Thanks for your help. Richard |

I just remembered - after having the same problems with 1.8.2 I went back to try 1.7.4.
I have just installed 1.8.2 again and the firmware details are the same as in my last post. I used the M-Audio uninstall program and rebooted the iMac before installing 1.8.2. Thanks for your help. Richard |
