insanecrazy Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 I recently built a GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P based quad core system for home recording. Everything is working perfectly except the FSM. The device shows up under System Profiler -> FireWire as FIRESTUDIO_MOBILE, but the firewire light flashes between blue and red. I have installed the latest drivers from PreSonus (v 3.4.2 beta) to no avail. On my MacBook Pro, the PreSonus Snow Leopard beta drivers work just fine. I suspect this could be an issue with my firewire interface. I have tried using the built-in firewire on the mobo as well as a TI-based PCIe interface... no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

insanecrazy Posted November 6, 2009 Author Share Posted November 6, 2009 I spotted a difference between the MacBook Pro and the desktop: the desktop is running in 64-bit mode. Also found these in the system log: - Can't load /System/Library/Extensions/PaeFireStudio.kext - no code for running kernel's architecture. - Failed to load /System/Library/Extensions/PaeFireStudio.kext - (libkern/kext) requested architecture/executable not found. I guess the PreSonus driver isn't 64-bit ready...

insanecrazy Posted November 6, 2009 Author Share Posted November 6, 2009 It looks like PreSonus is working on a 64bit version: http://forums.presonus.com/showthread.php?p=52766 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/195936-presonus-firestudio%E2%84%A2-mobile-snow-leopard-problems/#findComment-1321485 Share on other sites More sharing options...
onkeljoel Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 hello, I own a firestudio mobile and I´m in the middle of purchasing a new Imac, should I go ahead? Was your problem with the 64-bit compability solved?
