Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?

No I am not striping the session. I am only working with one partition. Each partition has separate purpose. but a good thought and something to keep in mind if I ever DO have samples spread out.

I did what you said and I daisy chained the glyph into the Digi 003 with the Digi 003 connected directly to the computer. and guess what? it worked. I just completed a 70 minute record session and the only reason it stopped is because I had a 70 minute limit stated in preferences. Now begins more questions. Why does Pro Tools not want to work with the 800 port? Why am I able to use the SAME 800 port in PEAK and record sessions of a few hours with no problem? it just doesn't make sense. but at least I found a way to make it work. thanks for your advice.

Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?
Glad you made some headway. Firewire 800 has been hit and miss for a few people. I wonder if a different/shorter cable would have any affect on this?

Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?
I have never had any luck with 800 to be honest. not even on my powerbook. thing to keep in mind is that if you have a computer with 1 400 and 1 800, they are really sharing the same bus internally.
funny thing...I never got an answer from anyone about the actual topic of the thread! Does anyone know what chipset Lacie uses?! thanks

Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?
I was just going to suggest trying FW400 instead of 800, as we've seen some issues when they're using the same bus - good to know it worked for you.

Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?
thanks for the bit on chipsets!
Yes, the 400 worked, but only if I daisy chain it through the Digi 003. This is still odd, because essentially I a still sharing the firewire bus...just in a different way. But I get results so I guess problem solved. thanks for all your replies

Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?
In energy saver preference pane try to set the computer performance to 'maximum' or something similar. Hope this helps.
I also found somewhere in the Digi site that iMacs are not good for using the Music Construction Toolkit option of 48 tracks. This (I assume) means not good performance of iMacs. It was some 2 years ago, though. But I can be wrong with the suggestion of your iMac being to blame...

Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?
yeah, I pretty much blame the iMac right about now. I am working on getting a power mac so I can install extra firewire cards, consider pro tools HD, etc. the iMac's are nice, but I don't feel they are capable to handing a beast like Pro Tools. Other programs work just fine. what can i say, only so much money to spend on [bleep][bleep][bleep][bleep]. thanks for commenting

Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?
I am sad to say they are not. I bought the Lacie D2 quadra onlinse, in the believe that it was using a TI chipset, but I have now learned that is has the LSI (lugent) chipset. I am disappointet since several sites on the internet stated that the lacie d2 quadra had the TI chipset, even the oxford 911.

Re: Do Lacie Drives have the Oxford Chipset?
I forgot that I had chosen the legacy firewire control driver, and that is listed as LSI 1394 legacy driver on all my 1394 busses.
So the lacie d2 quadra can still have the oxford chipset. Let us hope so. Sorry about my mistake.
