• You might want to try using a larger buffer size. Larger buffer sizes can increase
input latency time, but if you’re mixing, for example, this is not an issue.
Increasing the buffer size can be helpful, particularly in the case of older or
lower-powered systems.
• If you have ‘daisy-chained’ other FireWire devices, try using the FireWire 1814
without them to see if this works better. The noise might be due to a low power
situation on the bus or a bus-master conflict.
