i have a 160gig seagate firewire hard drive (obviously from the topic), and i have been recording to it for a year with no problems. at 16 bit 44.4 khz Using logic by the way. i recently started recording at 88.8 khz and it worked fine for about 5 "takes" each about 10-30 minutes from band practice. now all the sudden i get this error when i try and record to it. right when i hit "record" it says "I/O error result code = -36" anyone seen this before? i can record strait to the internal hard drive with no problems and move it afterwords,, but it's kind of a hassle when trying to do it all as i go. any ideas friends? thanks!

firewire 800?

dont feel bad. my best friends all work at Mac here in Austin in the with the audio/video programs and they have told me repeatedly that Logic has SOOOO many problems. exactly what your saying too...
they are being looked at, but last i heard... Logic couldnt keep up with the problems they were having (in terms of support and valid instruction for workarounds). Im not gonna suggest a different program... cause that would just suck. Do you have the most recent Logic version?

all i can say is perhaps get a firewire 800 drive (if you have the port that is). if your recording at that high of a samplerate, firewire 400 can get bogged down.

hope that helps

i was doing 8 tracks simultaneous. it's almost like the cable just burst or something.

yeah i do need to get the firewire 800, this one's the older connection speed. and yeah, logic does have a lot of problems, but man i'm like 6 years strong with it,,,, no turning back!!!

thanx a bunch yall! appreciate the advice :wink:
