M-audio Firewire Control Panel Download VERIFIED

The issue arises in a 64 bit Windows environment because although M-Audio provide a 64 bit driver, the driver control panel is still written in 32 bit. This means that trying to open the ASIO control panel within Cubase does not work.

If the control panel does not open, this issue is directly related to the software package of the ASIO device.

So some developers have integrated that feature in their software, but some not.

Often there is as well an override function of the sample rate related to these devices, which is definitely an error because the ASIO standard does not support this. The result will be that you think you have got a transpose change while you have exported your audio- mixdown, But this is not the case. The Cubase project is correctly setup at a current sample rate, but the ASIO device is not playing back the correct sample rate. This is related to a bad ASIO driver and maybe its Windows Media driver as well.

(Some devices have as well a hardware switch for the sample rate, which also overrides the project sample rate.)

If you can not open the control panel, you can not change the sample rate, the communication between Cubase (other DAWs are also affected) and the ASIO device is not possible while Cubase is open and the sample rate can not be changed.

All three issues are related to the software package and the ASIO driver.

There seem to be differences: I can open the control panel from the Windows tray and Adjust settings with Cubase open; others can open the control panel from the Windows tray but are not able to make changes until/unless Cubase is closed.

The low-noise mic preamps have a globally switched +48V phantom power option, and provide up to 66dB gain. There's also a switchable 20dB pad for each one, to cope with hotter signals (drum mics or guitars with active pickups, for instance), and each mic/instrument input has its own rotary gain control. The line-level inputs have a fixed sensitivity of -10dBV unaffected by the gain controls, and the input section is completed by a pair of front-panel LED indicators for each input which display Signal (around -30dB) and Clip (3dB below clip point) levels.

Next to the input controls on the front panel is a rotary control labelled Level Controller, described in the 410 manual as a "software-assigned rotary encoder for tactile control of monitor levels", which I'll come back to later. Atop this are eight output signal level 'blinkies' that flash when signals are present at each analogue output socket.

Twin stereo headphone outputs are next, each with its own rotary level control, although both carry the same signal. The final section on the front panel contains S/PDIF in and out signal indicators, a MIDI Thru switch which, when depressed, routes the MIDI input directly to the MIDI output for stand-alone use without a host computer, a switch and indicator for global +48V phantom power to both mic inputs, and a power switch.

The front-panel layout is also very similar to the 410's. The mic/instrument inputs are on the same Neutrik Combi sockets, with a switchable 20dB pad, rotary gain control, signal and clip LEDs, plus globally switched +48V phantom power. Next to them are twin stereo headphone sockets, each with its own rotary encoder level control, and then signal 'blinkies' that show S/PDIF and ADAT in/out activity. Next up are a further 12 'blinkies' for the eight analogue inputs and four outputs, and beneath these a software-assigned rotary encoder just like the 410's, intended for control of monitor levels. There's also a momentary A/B switch with associated LED that I'll come back to later, and the front panel is completed by a power switch and status indicator.

Since I last looked at the range there's also a new section for 'monitoring settings', where you can if you wish disable ASIO Direct Monitoring altogether, and set up the controls associated with the front panel A/B button and indicator. This button can either toggle direct monitoring on/off, or switch headphone output 1 between two sources, which are separately set after clicking on the 'set source' button, the options being 1/2 out, 3/4 out or aux. This is great for A/B cueing when working with two decks (or one deck and a CD player), or when mixing live.

Everything works as it should and without too much fuss. There's no physical output dim button, but there's one in the software control panel. Output level controller is so close to the 2nd signal gain controller that it's impossible to grab it, it's a small inconvenience.

I've got two M-audio Profire 2626. I was planning to record some music with a friend with these interfaces and my Windows desktop PC. Using Reaper.

I was setting up the two units to co-operate through TOSlink. The first unit was running as master, the other as slave. It was working very well, and Reaper detected all 16 channels.

The next day i moved the setup to the studio, and connected everything in the same way. I could not get the setup to work, I tried for hours, it wouldn't work. When I connected the master device to the PC, and oppened the Profire control panel, the control panel was showing a dialog box with this text. "No M-audio Profire device could be found". The devices were blinking red. I Tried again and again, didn't work. I did try with another PC, same issue. MAYBE the issue is that both of the units are running as slave, and can't find a master device, I don't know...;) I ended up borrowing some gear from a friend, but I really want to get this to work:-)

As for the buffer setting in PT, this can only be set in the unit's control panel. All other apps besides Pro Tools already do it this way (interface control panel only), but Avid integrated Digi and M-Audio hardware controls into PT (they own M-Audio).

I went back to Win10, uninstalled the ProjectMix driver and reinstalled it in Win7 compatibility mode. I don't recall if I did that originally. I also found the control panel exe (MAFWCpl.exe) and set it to run in Win7 compatibility mode. Now both ASIO and Windows sounds work in Win10 with the Legacy firewire driver with one exception: If I open a CbB project in 44.1K, windows system sounds stop working. After working in the CbB, I have to go back to the ProjectMix control panel and set the sample rate back to 48K. After that windows sounds work again. I suppose that is acceptable, but I'm not sure why this is happening. Windows sounds should play at 44.1K. It could be a problem if I have to get sound from a browser or another app while using a DAW.

I'm thinking about experimenting with the Vista driver since you're having such good luck with it. While things seem pretty stable with the Win7 driver, fairly often the PM won't pass audio after booting into Win10 and will screech like drenched cats at deafening levels until I play around with the control panel. This doesn't happen every time but it happens often enough. Usually toggling the sync source solves that problem.

I have been using the M -Audio Delta series of cards for years now. They've always had a solid balance of features, sound quality and flexibility. The Firewire 410 is no exception. In fact it raises the bar quite a bit in both hardware functionality, and its software mixer/control panel. This card seems to be targeting the home/mobile recordist and connects via firewire. It can be powered through the firewire connection, assuming you have a 6- pin firewire interface. This relieves a bit of the spaghetti factor that plagues me as I move my laptop recording system (G3 iBook 800 w/ Logic5) from place to place. The 410 is very well thought out. One example of this is the software assignable "level control" knob, which can be assigned to any fader in the 410 software control panel. This is a very practical idea that really saves a lot of pointing and clicking. There are two mic preamps on the front of the box with phantom power supply and pads. This is a four input card although it has six inputs; two mic, two line and S/PDIF. The analog mic/line inputs are either/or as only one or the other can be used along with the S/PDIF inputs for a total of four simultaneous inputs. The ten outputs (eight analog plus two S/PDIF) on this card are pretty exciting if you prefer to mix through a console like I do. It can be a pain to move a complex song to another computer to mix, and this box will afford you ten outputs to work with, which will frequently suffice for my uses anyway. Another really cool feature is the two headphone jacks on the front, each with its own volume control. I also have to commend them on including a MIDI I/O section with a thru switch on the front. If you don't need the MIDI section, it is very unobtrusive in its design. The M-Audio website states that there are issues relating to the use of firewire disk drives with this card right now. This could make the higher sample rates impractical for laptop recording, but this is supposed to be resolved shortly, and it seems like these guys usually get things like this worked out pretty quickly. I have always been impressed with the ratio of sound quality and features to price in the Delta series cards, and this interface raises the bar again. All in all this is a very solid interface, and I would feel confident recommending it to people. 17dc91bb1f
