I have a Samson C01U USB microphone on my new Vista OS. The microphone works, but no matter what settings I try, there is always a very audible 'hum' in the recording. I've tried recording with both the default sound recorder and Adobe Audition 3.

I'm using a 1814 with windows vista.. my problem is that when i try and change to ADAT it won't let me. I have all tried kinds of things. downloading new drivers,going to my Xp computer and reseting the 1814 and other things that an m-audio worker told me to do, but nothing. I was hoping something that knows what they are really doing can help me.

thank you for your time!

Several years ago, I purchased an Aardvark Q10 for all my recording needs. I used this in conjunction with Cool Edit Pro / Adobe Audition until recently, and I have been very happy with the results. A few weeks ago, however, I bought a new computer, which came with Windows Vista, and my Aardvark will not function/install properly.

Here is my situation. I am definitely buying a laptop for recording purposes and also want to get Pro Tools with the digi003. Right now my only option is to buy a new macbook pro (new models were released this week). However, I recently read that Pro Tools will be supported by vista sometime this summer. Now I don't know if I should get a vista based laptop or a macbook pro.

The linked forum has already done some work posting links to manufacturer's sites about Vista drivers, compatibilty, etc. (I hope it's OK to link to another forum. I realize this is the best. but info is info, right?) May be a good place to start investigating if anyone is considering "upgrading" to Vista (so you can learn how to disable even MORE unnecessary Microsoft "features".)

Hi

I wonder if anyone could offer a nice summary -- based on their actual experience of this OS -- of how it performs in comparison with XP. Basically, is Vista, right now, a good enough platform, or is XP the only (Windows) game in town?

I am planning to buy a new laptop computer and it comes with Windows Vista, and I am just want it for recording purpose.

but when I looking at the software box, such as Sonar 6, it only support to windows 2000/XP

Does anyone had experience in using windows Vista to run the recording software such as Sonar 6?

any problem? or any comment? should I still using XP?

Hi

Is anyone successfully using a Focusrite saffire on vista please?

How long do manufacturers generally wait to release an driver for a new OS? I have a Tascam FW1884 which doesn't have drivers for Vista yet. How long does a company like this usually take to get drivers out for a piece of hardware 3 yrs old..?
