Zero disconnecting???

[Jarred Cassidy]

Reguraly when using the zero 8 with cubase or Live 7 it seems the fire wire stops sending signals and releases a high pitched sound.. everything has to be shut down then...

Is there anyway of preventing this???? im afraid to take this thing out on the live circuit

Are you using Zero with Vista?

[Jarred Cassidy]

sorry for the last reply .. yes i am using vista...

its become such a problem with every session that my zero 8 is now back with Korg who are testing it.

[RufusWhite]

I have this problem too, and I really don't want to have to send my Korg back!

I tried it with a different firewire cable last night, and it seemed better, I'll give it another run tonight, and if there's still any problems I'm phoning Korg.

yeah.. so yours is disconnecting and are you getting a high pitched noise then???

I sent mine back and Korg still said they cant find a problem.. but its good to know im not the only one.

Not sure if this will help

I was having the same problem with my zero 4.

I disabled my dvd drive and my Ethernet hardware in my laptop, this helped a bit but I was was still having problems.

I have a small 4 pin fire wire plug and the slightest wiggle would kill the audio and give me that hi pitched noise.

This is my solution (see link below)
