Tascam and OSX now playing happily
Published by on November 15th, 2005
Something odd happened with Mac OSX 10.4 (Tiger) system sound: everything I recorded via my Tascam US-122 USB audio interface was recorded to disk at a slightly higher pitch.
I found myself post-processing a couple of podcast recordings, artificially manipulating the pitch to stop my voice sounding like I was in a room filled with helium. New drivers downloaded had no effect and in fact things with the sound system started to become a distinctly unstable. So I trashed the Tascam in favour of an available M-Audio Mobile-Pre (thanks, Jen) and all was well in podcast recording land, except that the Mobile-Pre is not hot-swappable - meaning it killed the system if it was plugged-in after boot-up [humph!].
Now, with OSX Tiger 10.4.3, I am pleased to be back with my Tascam and it’s hot-swappable convenience. With no additional driver updates, the 10.4.3 system update just make everyone play nicely once again.
