Hmm, a couple of things to try. have you tried going into monitor mode then, pressing Control Shift and function key F8 to reset the MIDI side of the board? Then, Control Shift and function key F10 to reset the board to unity gain? Once you have done all of that, power down your PC and the FW-1884. Then, turn everything on and see what happens. If you want the latest firmware and drivers then, you will find all of that over on: http://www.philmuir.com/fw1884.html Enjoy!

Last night my Axiom 61 wasn't working right -- the soft wynths would play, but the Axiom wouldn't record. So I rebooted. Then I had to change the Input and Output settings because they had changed. I'm use to doing this now, but I don't know why these things happen occasionally. Is the latest firmware on the Tascam website? But...I cannot find out why the Master slider on the FW 1884 isn't controlling the master volume, and it's just on a certain group of songs. Baffling. I think I'm going to wipe out all AUX sends and buses except for the Master bus on a song, save it, and then reboot. I don't think this will do anything, but I've got to try something. But I have noticed that on these certain songs, the output volume of the Master bus is way above 0 while the tracks assigned to the master bus are below 0 db. Maybe I'm overdriving the buses somehow. Whatever the case, the Master slider should control the overall volume. Thanks Robert and Jack for your comments.Oh, to answer your other question--my originals seem to cover all forms of music while my band plays primarily country and classic rock Fun (grin). Thanks for asking.
