I just bought a new Laptop and I was all excited because I thought I was going to be able to use my Radias but to my supprise, there is no firewire port on my laptop! I usually hook up my Radias to my computer with a USB and Firewire, and also hook the Radias into a Firebox which outputs the left and right audio into two moniters and from there Edit sounds in the sound editor while I listen to the results in FL Studio. Anyways, is there anyway to hook up my Radias to my Laptop and still hear the sounds from the Radias. I see there is a firewire-like port but it's one of those really small ports for digital cameras, the ports I use are about the size of a USB port.

R? with firewire??? Dang, that has to be cool Smile

you don't need firewire on your laptop for the Radias, it doesn't have any firewire port (the Radias). so what you need to do is:

connect the Radias to your computer through USB (and install the Korg usb driver of course)

connect the main audio outputs (L+R) of the R to your Firebox audio inputs(L+R)

connect the Firebox audio outputs to your monitors audio input

i'm not sure i understood your post correctly and what exactly youre asking for, so if it's not the answer to your question, please try to be more clear.

ahuramuisc,

You'll need a USB audio interface to replace the Firebox if your laptop has no Firewire port.

I'm amazed you didn't make sure the laptop had a FW port before you bought it.

You could consider getting a PCMCIA "PC Card" firewire adapter for your laptop.
