DID YOU KNOW?? (disclaimer: may not be interesting to anybody)
Did you know that when using a USB audio interface with a MacBook only the forward most USB port is approved for such a use? This is not true with a USB midi controllers. You can plug those in anywhere. Well I'll be buggered! Just read that on www.m-audio.com
That's why software was freezing up and becoming retarded on me the other day! I was using the wrong USB port. And I thought it was a driver thing. Take it to heart MacBook using electonic music makers...all 1 or 2 of you. This can cause much frustration which can be disturbing to your young children or significant others.
