OLD FastTrack
I just bought a brand new six-core Mac Pro, and I'm setting up my audio software and hardware, and I discovered that my trusty old silver M-Audio FastTrack doesn't seem to be working right. ProTools 11 does recognize it, but if I output through it, the audio is all distorted. This is a really ancient interface, and I looked around online, and it looks like it's not supported anymore. But it was working fine on my previous computer, with ProTools 10, and I just thought someone might know of some kind of workaround. I tried using the firmware for a more recent FastTrack model, but no dice.
I know it probably seems ridiculous to use such a crappy old interface on such a nice setup, but it was working fine up until now so I'd rather not toss it. Plus, the new Mac Pros don't actually have any built-in audio inputs, so I don't have any in's right now! I'll have to buy a real interface at some point, but I can't afford any more big ticket items right now, so I'm just looking for some kind of temporary fix. |

Re: OLD FastTrack
What version of OSX are you running on the new Mac, and is it this FastTrack?
I'm guessing you probably have a new OS then there are drivers for. Joel

Re: OLD FastTrack
My OS X version is 10.10.2. I'm not sure exactly what version of the FastTrack I have, but the label says, "FastTrack guitar | mic recording interface M-Audio," and it has one TRS input and one XLR input, and one stereo output, and no MIDI jacks.
Yes, I did try that driver, and sadly, it just said something like "Device is not connected." |

Re: OLD FastTrack
If anyone is interested, I just bought a new USB hub, and suddenly now the FastTrack is working fine.
