Hey!

I'm all new to this and got my system working today with some help from a friend of mine.
I run Snow Leopard with the latest Combo update.

everything is fine and runs smooth except for my external sound card.
Focusrite Saffire USB 6

I've downloaded the latest drivers from focusrite, and i have sound and everything works. But sometimes it just "reboots" and goes off and on. wich is really enoying since my speakers will go (poooppf). Does anyone have a clue what I can do to make it function normally?.

I guess it has something to do with the USB and power or something, and I've tried come up with some sort of solution without success.
It's nothing hardware wise cause it works perfectly in Windows 7 (64-bit)


Thanks in advance

i know this post was a long time ago but i recently had the same issue with my Focusrite 6 USB interface.
i tried using another usb port for a while and had no further problems since.

hope that fixes it for you and anyone else, too :)
 
Hey Guys! I had the same Problem a while ago. The solution was really simple to me! I´ve just bought an active USB-Hub and connected the Saffire to it and the USB-Hub to the PC, and the Problem was gone. I think the is Problem is, that the Saffire draws to much power from the USB Port in different situations like watching Videos on youTube! Hope this solution helps you Guys.
