I'm looking at the Fireface 800, and possibly might purchase this audio interface, but wanted to know if anyone had any experience using this device on a Hackintosh with Logic Pro 8.

eh, got a digi 003 instead of the RME
was a little bit work, but it is installed and working['knocks on wood'] on kalaway 10.5.1 (I haven't tested midi yet, that will be tomorrow).
I used PT 7.4cs3, the 7.3 and 7.4 versions were not recognizing the device, but the "beta" version worked. I hear they are actually done with the Leopard capability on the ProTools side, but they are waiting for their partners that produce plugins o catch up to the newest mac OS.

i've got my fireface 800 running well with ableton 7.0.9 at 160 samples 44100hz with 80% cpu usage in the test in coreaudio.
im pretty impressed, though i would like to do a little better than that. has anyone gotten better times with their fireface 800 in osx?
