The sampler is recognised by the system as it appears in system profiler... however when I try to coonect via peak or recycle it says that no SMDI devices are present. The SCSI IDs appear to be correct on all device (6 for the sampler, 7 for the computer/scsi card). Both the mac and the SCSI card are brand new. Anyone have any idea what's going on? I don't even have a floppy drive so if this keeps up I'll end up sampling every individual drum hit into the sampler... please save me from the is hideous fate...someone

Have you got OS9 on your computer? Any other scsi things plugged in which do work? Termination set to -on- in your sampler? There's no way you're going to sample all those drum hits - an answer will be found!

Thanks for your reply. I have OS9 running as classic but i can't boot nto it. I am also running virtual PC with Recycle. Good idea about checking that the scsi works with something else. I've got a usb/scsi printer so i'll try plugging that in via scsi tonight (I'm at work during the day). Termination is set to 'on'.

I have emailed support at D Sound Pro for further info and their support guy reckons it might be a problem/bug in OS X 10.2.6.

What scsi card do you have? The only one i know that works with the mac is the adaptec 2906 mentioned in the manual. I went through the same thing with my new g4.

it could be your scsi card... i had to update the firmware on my orange-micro grappler card before OSX would even talk to it.
i would say... check the website of your scsi-card manufacturer and see if they put any updates online.
I still use OS9 though... fortunately i can still boot in OS9.
peak works great with the e5000 ultra, i'm transferring samples all the time!
