Re: Legacy Support

Has anyone tried using Power Tracks with Sierra/Dakota?
Would it work, as I use Power Tracks I think its easy software to use especially for the sequencer side of it to play Midi Backing Tracks.
Any views on this.

Re: Legacy Support

Add me to the list of people willing to pay for ongoing support by way of Windows 7 drivers for the wonderful Dakota/Montana product/s! I've been using Dakota for something  like 10 years now and am sad at the prospect of losing it for Win7. I have 2 systems, both with Dakota; 1 with Montana as well. I also use Sierra and Tranzport and can't thank Frontier Design enough for the high quality products they've always put out!

FWIW- use driver v3.15 instead of 3.16 in Windows 7. 24 bit recording works. The only work around is to disable the program that runs on startup. But the card settings are easily accessed via the Windows control panel.

Re: Legacy Support

Folks,
I'd just like to report in that I finally upgraded my computer hardware and o/s (win 7 professional 64-bit), crossed my fingers and hoped for the best with the Dakota 3.16 beta driver:   ASIO has been relatively stable with Sonar X1c (WDM, forget about it).  I've experienced a few crashes but I couldn't tell you where the blame lies - Sonar, Dakota driver, plugins or o/s.   I have 64 and 32 bit Sonar X1c installed and things are more stable with the 64bit.  In 32-bit, Sonar sometimes prompts me to re-config the Dakota in Preferences.  Overall it's not as stable as my old XP SP2 with the older drivers but I'm just pleased to be able to keep my 2 Tango 24s in service for a while longer; I may yet go for that BLA mod.
Many thanks to Frontier Design and the author of the driver.
