Recently upgraded from a G5 tower to an 8 core to make the jump from Logic 8-9 . After doing so a litany of weird issues have been introduced. Most problematic being that my Virus is basically useless.
I can get several midi channels going via USB and everything is fine for a few stop/start playbacks. Usually after anywhere from 3-5 stop/start playbacks, the entire Virus gets covered in a loud static type noise that overlays all sounds being played- you can hear the selected patches barely audible under a very thick, low frequency static.
I am assuming it is a hardware problem and its time to pony up for repair but wondering if anyone has had similar issues.
Kit:
8 core Tower
Digi 003
Logic 9.1.3
Virus Ti version 1, recently updated firmware etc.
Thoughts? Suggestions? Thanks for reading.
