when i use fcp with the laptop speakers all is fine. as soon as i use the mbox2 for the audio i get problems. well, one problem really. after a short amount of time, say 5-10 minutes i get the spinning rainbow beachball thing. now, while this is very pretty it means that the only way out of it is a restart and i lose any unsaved work.

the mbox works fine with other apps such as logic.

please help. not much hair left to tear out.

Hi Ray,
I've never used an MBox myself, but a mate of mine had some problems that were cured with a firmware update. If that doesn't help, you could try kicking the cat rather than pulling your hair out.

firmware up to date. cat too quick.

anyone?

is there a problem running a usb device while running a firewire device on a macbook pro?
