Ableton M-Box
Anyone have any recommendations for a M-box for Ableton? Only for midi and maybe mic.

Re: Ableton M-Box
I have a mini 2 that I use for Ableton...but If you have Windows 7, expect it to crash at random.
Re: Ableton M-Box
I use Ableton with my MBox mini 2 on windows 7 and it has never crashed ..

Everyone I've heard using that combo usually have some sort of unexpected crashing going on.
I can't seem to fix mine...I just have to deal with the BSOD on a daily basis...

Re: Ableton M-Box
i DLed the new drivers from avid for win 7, but im not getting anything in control panel to enable it in audio devices for playback or recording :/. i read that you have to uninstall ASIO, uninstall any old digidesign drivers, then install the new ones.
anyone know how to delete old digidesign drivers?? where would i even find them.

Re: Ableton M-Box
i've got an M Box 2 mini and i wouldn't recommend it to anyone. people buy the M Box 2 range for Pro Tools not the actual interface.
having said that the new range is top notch! i would go with the regular M Box or M Box Pro because the mini only supports sample rates up to 48kHz and no MIDI. actually i'm not sure if the other 2 have MIDI either.

Re: Ableton M-Box
I use m-audio's fasttrack pro which works nicely, not a standard m-box or anything, but it's cheaper and does the job!
