I have to “nudge” it by bumping the sample rate up once and back down. Then everything works fine. You are correct in that I’m not using all of the interfaces. I haven’t used the SPDIF for anything. I use the firewire, generally one output, and an input or two. Nothing too complicated. When I was shopping for interfaces, the ultralite was out of my price range, so I went with the 1814. I got a good deal on it, but it is true when they say you get what you pay for. Thankfully for me at present the bugs are mere annoyance and not a show-stopper.

There are so many out there with the same problems. Although M-Audio promises to soon release drivers, when is that going to happen? what am i supposed to do all this time? U say it works kind of smooth for u... but do u really use all the interfaces on the FW 1814? I do. and that is why i am having troubles. It works ok when just playing something, but go ahead and touch the faders and see what happen, or alternativly try to use sends to spdif and see the horror. I really hope to get rid of this piece of junk, because this is what it is. we all try to convince ourselves something good will happen, but to me it seems like a product which is junk and the lack of support just make me wanna throw it away and go for the ultralite motu. good luck with making music on the fw1814... i am wasting all day on installations and forums :-|( I have a FW 1814, and since i stepped over to mac i have so many bugs… There are so many out there with the same problems.

Have you sorted it out yet? Additya - It is definitely not something I would depend on in critical performance situations. However I did use it for a gig this past weekend without problems. I was not doing anything major -- just running Ableton Live -- but I didn't have any hiccups. Zino – I’m not sure what the problem could be there. Have you sorted it out yet?
