Tascam US-224 Sound Card

Mac OS X 10.4.11 doesn't recognize Tascam US-224 (by 4 users)

posted by AVega on Feb 23, 2008


Hi there,
I've recently become a Mac user and when trying to plug my Tascam US-224 to my Macbook, it's like the computer ignores it. It doesn't appear anywhere and therefore, I can't get any sound out of my keyboard, mic, etc
I've made sure I've got the right drivers (I've downloaded version 3.2.3) but no icon appears on the desktop when the device is plugged in and when I click on the 'US-224 Manager' window, I only see that it's simply not available. No MIDI signal, no audio,... nothing... However, it used to work fine when I used it with my old Windows.
Please can you help? Many thanks in advance. AV

Found the root cause of the problem... Seems I hadn't installed all the needed drivers.
Now it's working!

After a google, I found this:

The audio sputtered when I first installed the US-224 on my laptop, but that's a common USB problem on PCs that have too many applications running in the background. The audio and controller functions worked after I ran msconfig.exe and turned off all of the unnecessary startup items, but I still heard an annoying stutter. I solved the problem by tweaking the buffer settings in the US-224's control panel and in my audio applications (Steinberg Nuendo and Syntrillium Cool Edit Pro).
