When asking about the ASIO drivers for the GINA, which Ive been waiting for over 4 months, event said that if people stopped bothering them theyd be out sooner. In June, they promised me the drivers in JULY or AUGUST.

Yet another story of promises of support that doesnt appear.

'gift' also means marriage

anyone figure why mac asio drivers seem to pop out like babies in the ghetto and the pc equivalents never even get developed?

Just recently, I installed the new drivers (3.0.8) for my Gina. Now normally I'm an extremely patient bloke, being a capricorn and all that, but Event's attitude to software makes me fucking boil. Wasting their time fucking around with the grotesque echo console. What about getting the fucking drivers bug-free and stable? Direct-Fucking-X, ha ha - pull the other one. ASIO?? Did I hear someone laugh? Nice hardware, though.

To all software freaks in the Santa Barbara area: Get your "butts" down to Event and make yourselves a few bucks on the side by showing them how to write software. Just a thought.

i'm in the santa barbara area...perhaps if i go in there with a bomb strapped to my back they'll listen to me while i dictate their 1's and 0's? hmm...perhaps i'll wait on that till i can afford to buy anything Event makes. but hell, if i'm going in there with a bomb on my back it should be pretty easy to get a free Gina, no?

hehe

Ok

I like the bomb idea, I dont think theyll listen but you life will be sacrified for the common good.

Maybe Event get their programmers the same place music shops get their salesmen. Id like to say that this is a generalisation, but, find me a music shop which isnt crap.
(ok, not world wide but within the M25.....)

well, after reflection (and i'm a non-owner.. if i'd bought it, i may be would be mad!!)... event gave you a decent 8 out & s/pdif card with nice solid connectors at a bargain price...... what are the options ?.. apart from the korg 12/12, and that still cost more for the rack analog multi-out unit/s... y just gotta live with it... er.... it works at least..... maybe vst looses the gina a few times per session and you have to re-start vst... but ...

That's the way I feel.. I paid my money for the Gina, I got my money's worth.. When they get off their asses and get the ASIO drivers right, it'll just be icing on the cake.. Even without, I think I got what I paid for, totally.....Of course, I don't use VST

(Notoriously buggy prog in the first place)

Well, the echo console is excellent, the new easy trim control is better. The original drivers are more stable, though.

Anyway, kilo & sedusa are completely right. I bought my gina around the beginning of the year, and at that time there was nothing out there that could touch it. Now that new gadget labs card is coming, which should be the best value around, but even that only has asio drivers for the mac (a trait shared by many cards, any ideas why?).
