Topic: MicroTrack 24/96 Beta 1.2.3

Decided to try the new support thing at M-Audio.  Wrote them about the 2GB thing.  I got a response already "right now we are working on a firmware update that will address this issue." Now lets see if they come through on the statement.  Only thing I know is this is the first time I remember them saying anything like this.

good deal!  *fingers crossed*

if this thing turns into a reliable bit dump, i'll be ecstatic.

Wow! Now when will the firmware be released? Before summer?

Sounds to me like everyone needs to compile their want list again & send it to the new Support.  If they responded, it could be a great way to lay it all out in front of them.  If they got 25+ emails requesting the same stuff it wouldn't hurt too bad either.

I had lengthy discussions with support last week.  I want to escalate these significant issues to someone beyond the first couple levels.  Support doesn't have a clue.  Half the time they're saying they never promised >2gb support as a feature, the other half they're saying it is coming. I want to get someone at M-A who knows wtf is going on to more formally set some customer expectations.  If they're just stringing people along, it will be worse for them.

True, True, True

F*ck the 2GB split, the >4 gb  "time remaining" issue, and the no S/PDIF 24/96....

I just want the repair department to send mine back.

Well, just hearing that the 4gig thing may be fixed is a step closer than we've been.  I will LOVE it!  Now if 8gig cards would just come down, I'd be a happy man.

325 isnt bad IMO, they'll only come down more

It will do 24/96 S/PIDF

Haven't there been multiple reports of 24//96 via S/PDIF being flaky at best?

I wouldn't know....mine's been in California since the first week of January.

I've done a few tests at 24/96 via the S/PDIF, and I've found that, at this point, it's just as realiable as 24/48 over S/PDIF.  however, I haven't run any tests longer than 10 minutes or so, and I won't run 24/96 at a show until they do something about the 2 GB limit.  at 24/96, that's only an hour, which just won't cut it. I can usually deal with the limit if it's every 2 hours (at 24/48).

I ran 24/96 at home to check my battery time since the V3 pulls more juice the higher you go.  I did not have any problems running the spidf @ 24/96.  What kind of flakieness has been found?  I hope you get back your unit soon as I am sure at some time mine might go down and need to be fixed.  Things do get dropped on tour
