blobber Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Logic Pro 8 crashes after "Please select an audio driver in the following preference dialog". I trashed the two preference files in ~/Library/Preference but the issue is still happening. I tried reinstalling it couple times but the problem is still occurring.

gregsk1 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I'd guess its either your version of Logic 8 or your soundcard ? any details on either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blobber Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 I updated it to 8.0.3 and I have Audigy 2 ZS as a sound card. I tried connecting an external sound card, which is 100% compatible with Mac and still crashing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VooD Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I updated it to 8.0.3 and I have Audigy 2 ZS as a sound card. I tried connecting an external sound card, which is 100% compatible with Mac and still crashing. Which distro are you using? Do you have SSE3? Just an advice...I would go vanilla for audio apps...in fact for everything. Many distros are not 100% correct, and may cause that kind of weird behaviours.

blobber Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 Yeah I am using XNU kernel with iDeneb 10.5.5. Problem is that the setup I have does not work with any other kernel. In fact it would not even boot into OS with anything else than XNU. Oh and I don't have SSE3 on that rig. Only SSE2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konami® Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Oh and I don't have SSE3 on that rig. Only SSE2. That's they key to your issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blobber Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 So is it absolutely necessary to have SSE3 enabled CPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VooD Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 So is it absolutely necessary to have SSE3 enabled CPU? Yep. SSE3 emulation uses to give high cpu usage, and weird crashes. Os X uses sse3 binaries, so you really need a sse3 processor if you want a stable and fast system (belive me, you'll notice the difference) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
