I'm surprised that it is 24bit with no 16bit choice. Thanks for your time on this, Hiro. I'll report back when something significant happens.

Have you tried uninstalling the Audio Drivers, then reinstalling them? I have an M-Audio card that does something similar...and uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers works most of the time.

OK, but as I said, if you chose Built-in in AMS, the Finale crash log _must_ look different, because Finale no longer tries to load PCI424. Please try again and send me the crash log. Send me as text instead of MS rtf. It is pretty difficult to read since MS throws so much garbage. If it still crashes at PCI then Finale still remembers false AMS API and it is stuck in corrupted pref. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

You remember Fin2k8 isn't properly handling mono stream? I think Fin2k8 introduced CA bugs.

Dick, open Applications/Utilities/Console.app Make sure console.log is displayed and start up Finale. This is more accurate to see when it crashed.

How did you delete it? The driver is here: /System/Library/Extensions/ And you can't delete them unless you do sudo rm from CLI. Ah! I see. No I just deleted the Apps (Clockworks, MOTU PCI Audio Setup, Cuemix) I'm not comfortable with running command from the terminal window (although I do run sudo periodic a few times a month). So I'm going to wait a bit on this Hiro. I'll run the DiskUtility from the installer disk as you suggested.

[Finale] Mac F2008 Crash on Open
If any mac owners have the time to test. In working on my problem of F2k8 crash on open, I've noticed that the Audio Midi Setup pane of OS is set to 2-ch 24-bit. The MM tech mentioned that Finale only wants 16 bit, but since the crash seems to happen when Finale is initializing midi (not Core midi, after that) he decided not to pursue it. Just for laughs, I decided to try booting with the Audio Midi Setup set at 16-bit. However, the format pull down for Audio/Midi Setup has no option but 24-bit. The only place in my system that I've found so far that can change bit depth, is in Digital Performer which has a preference pane which allows one to specify the bit depth of newly recorded material. Changing that back and forth seemed to have no effect on the Audio/ Midi Setup configuration. So I'm curious, does any one have options in that Audio/Midi Setup pull down?

Unfortunately the tech person you talked doesn't know much. The A/D format isn't something you can chose. It's not like sample rate. The bit depth is only a file format. Your 2048 A/D is 20-bit (24-bit if mark-ii). That is a spec of the converter. When you track with DP, you have a choice to write the file in 24-bit or 16-bit. Finale only wants 16-bit doesn't make sense. Have you tried trashing Finale pref as I suggested?
