[AGENT ORANGE1]

PLEASE BEAR WITH ME IM A FIRST TIME MAC USER.OK I HAVE A G4 466 MHZ,I INSTALLED PERFOMER 2.7 EVERYTHING WENT SWEET WITH INSTALLATION (VERY SIMPLE).I CONFIGURED EVERYTHING ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL THEN I RECORDED(SAMPLED) FROM A CD THE SOUND WAVES APPEARED AND THE SOUND PLAYED BACK,I WAS EVEN ABLE TO EDIT IT.LATER ON THAT DAY I TRIED TO DO IT AGAIN AND IT FLATLINED.NO SOUND WAVES, NO SOUND,NOTHING.THE OTHER SOUNDBITE WAS THERE BUT NOW IT WASNT RECORDING NO MORE.IVE LOOKED INTO THE CONFIGURATION OF THE COMPUTER AND THE PROGRAM.AS WELL AS REINSTALLING THE PROGRAM BUT STILL SAME THING.SOMETIMES WHEN I TRY TO RECORD FROM A CD A LIL WINDOW LOOKS AS IF IT PROCESSING THE INFORMATION THEN IT STOPS OR A MESSAGE COMES UP INTERNAL BUFFER NOT READY TOO MANY TRACKS EFFECTS.DOES ANYONE POSSIBLY KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON? OR WHAT I COULD DO TO GET MY PERFORMER TO WORK FOR ME

What kind of hardware are you using? I'm selling my 466 because OS 9.1 doesn't work with my RME sound card.

What's happened to me ocassionally is that I try to grab audio from certain cd's and for what ever reason just can't. Try varios cds and see if there's a difference. Are you just dragging the tracks into performer from the cd window? If so make sure you made a stereo track, it won't go into a mono one. Another general trouble shooting thing to try is to go into your system folder then into your preferences folder and drag out the dig. performer preferences (they can get corrupted), restart the program and try again. Good luck and enjoy.

What kind of hardware are you using to record? Go to Basic - Motu Audio System Options - Configure Hardware Driver - Sample Per Buffer increase it to 1024 or 2048 it all depends on haw many tracks you want to do. Also close the program then click once on the Digital performer icon then go to File - Get Info - Memory. add a zero to each value. Then try to record. There might me an extension conflict between your hardware and OS 9.1
