— kudos for this update. I had been using my Pro 40 as additional inputs for my ProjectMix IO, but I’m consolidating and freeing up space, and while everything looked like it was going to be fine, I went to play something back in 96khz and it was super choppy. Some Googling brought me to this thread, and with a little trial and error, I got it working.

Here’s some super basic step-by-step details:

1) Install Mixcontrol 3.4
1a) In Control Panel -> Sound, disable Saffire Pro 40 (don’t use it for your system audio)
2) Browse to the folder where it was installed (e.g. C:\Program Files\Focusrite\Saffire MixControl)
3) Rename Pro40Firmware.bin to anything else. For example, rename it to Pro40Firmware.bin.3.4
4) Uninstall MixControl — this will remove all the files except the one you renamed. This will require a restart — might as well.
5) Install MixControl 3.7 into the same folder as last time
6) Browse to the folder where it was installed
7) Rename Pro40Firmware.bin to Pro40Firmware.bin.3.7
8) Rename Pro40Firmware.bin.3.4 to Pro40Firmware.bin
9) Optionally, restart your computer

Note: At this point, MixControl wasn’t connecting to my device. Got a little weirded out at first, but here’s how I got that under control:

10) Open Device Manager
11) Under «Sound, Video, and Game Controllers» (or something sound related), you should see an icon indicating that the Saffire driver is missing.
12) Tell it to find a new driver, and that you’ll browse to the correct folder
13) Paste in the folder where MixControl was installed — it should correct the driver installation
14) Fire up MixControl — you should now see the familiar mixer interface, and your Firewire light should be lit.

I did still see some weirdness on my first go around — the sample rate kept jumping around, the Firewire light on the device was blinking. In MixControl, I clicked File -> Restore Factory Defaults, and that fixed that. I also clicked «Save to Hardware» but I’m not real sure that’s relevant.

Anyway, I almost never listen in 96khz, but it was a good indicator that the buffering wasn’t working like it should have been. Thanks for figuring this one out, I would have been bummed out and probably wouldn’t have chased down the old driver like you did, since this hardware is new to me.

Странно, что у вас проблема с Focusrite saffire на винде 10. У меня liquid saffire 56, на Windows 10 полет нормальный. На материнке firerwire порта нет, поэтому докупал контроллер PCIe ex1 — Firewire с чипом texas instruments. После установки драйвера при первом включении карты, индикатор FW active непрерывно мигает, пока система не настроит драйвер, а далее выключив карту и включив все работает как надо



  • #8

@Raptor82, не подскажете по точнее какой фирмы вы купили контролёр PCIe ex1 — Firewire?

ST-Lab F-301

ST-Lab F-301 как раз на чипе TI
