(This is about the M-Audio ozone midi controller, if you are wondering)
Ok, so I pop in the drivers cd and the manual tells me to go to the "ozone" folder and run the exe driver... well, there just so happens to NOT be an ozone folder anywhere there... so apparently I have no drivers. I have 3 questions: Has anyone else experienced this? Are drivers available online? Why the fuck am I so unlucky?

the five folders that are on the cd are:
Arkaos VJ lite DSound RT Player IK Multimedia SampleTank LinPlug Free Alpha Propellerhead Demos
there is definately no folder called Ozone like the manual says there should be... though I haven't tried installing any of the things in these folders yet.

Sorry i got occupied doing something else.
So there is no folder that metions drivers or anything?
Hmmm, personally i would check the m-audio site and if not that get them to send you the driver and install files.
Sorry you had to wait such a long time for a short answer.

i've got the driver setup file. if you have problems finding it online, just e-mail me or catch me on msn.
follow the instructions in the manual, because it's a little difficult setting up the two seperate drivers (audio and midi interface)

alright, I've got it successfully installed.. now I've got some new questions:
Question 1: While listening to an mp3 through the ozone, I'm hearing some clicks/pops... I think is this from the latency being set to medium, and I'm fairly certain my computer can handle low or very low latency, but when I try to change it in the ozone start bar menu, it won't let me, telling me to make sure all audio and ASIO applications are stopped. What might be causing this?
Question 2: ive currently got my acoustic guitar hooked up and im monitoring it fine, but what do I need to do to get cubase sx to accept the signal for recording? So far the only wires I have hooked up are the instrument cable for my guitar and the usb to the computer.. what else am I going to need?

ok well i got it to change latency, but I'm still hearing pops... it happens on an interval, like every second it will make a little tick.. am I supposed to be hearing this?

that happened to me also, those little pops sometimes. i got the ozone plugged into the extended USB, which is front of the computer. but, then when i re-installed my windows, i decided to plug it in the USB on my motherboard and the pops have stopped completely.
there are two versions of USB. USB and USB2.0. the USB2.0 is faster, it's as fast as firewire (or maybe faster) , so maybe the problem is, you plugged it into the older version (i'm. Ozone is designed for USB2. that's what i think is the most likely possiblity of your problem. the other one is, you might need to plug it into a usb on the motherboard, not an external USB. (i'm not sure wether my external USB is USB2.0 or not)
i hope this helps
tell me if it's USB or USB2 and how its' plugged

I have USB2.0 and it's plugged in in the back of the computer... so I don't know what the problem could be.

ok so I am trying to dust this baby off and get some use out of it, but now the USB port on the back is all finnicky and won't stay powered on! I have to keep jiggling the cord and eventually I can get it to some form of "sweet-spot" but if I move it slightly it powers off again! I have tried it with 2 different USB cords, one of which I just opened from the packaging right now, so I know it isn't the cables' fault... what the fuck is going on? has anyone else experienced this?

oh.. you can't have two soundcards at the same time.. sorry. A friend of mine had that problem, and we had to take out the other soundcard completely...
I don't know if it'll work (you may actually have to physically take out the soundblaster), but you can try creating two different "hardware-profiles" in windows, one for gaming and the other for music. This will give you a startupmenu where you select when you turn your computer on. In the one for gaming, you have the soundblaster activated, and on the other one, you have it deactivated...

I have an oxygen8 (which is a dumbed down midi controller), yours sounds more complicated... I dont know what to tell you.
Um... I haven't had too much of a problem with mine, I had some stutter starts, but now it works great... My usb plug works fine...
I hate when expensive shit doesn't work :(
