After upgrading Waynemanor Studio’s Intel-based Mac to OSX 10.5 (10.5.5), I was unable to get the Mackie Onyx 1640 FireWire interface to stream audio successfully to/from the Mac. When playing audio from the Mac to the Onyx (just from the System Preferences Sound panel, selecting the Onyx FireWire 0838 output for system sounds and clicking the Purr sound – no DAW software), I’d get the spinning beachball for ~10s, then stuttering, clicking, popping sound would come out. Actually running my DAW made things worse; the application would hang, and Force Quit didn’t help. (Power cycling the Onyx allowed the Force Quit to work.)

Mackie lists this audio driver rollback (PDF) on their website, but the first try at it didn’t work. Here’s how I managed to finally get everything working correctly under Apple OSX 10.5.5:

Sign up for an Apple Developer Connection account. It’s free, and required to download the software you need.
Download both the FireWire SDK 26 for Mac OSX and the FireWire SDK 24 for Mac OSX.
Mount both image files and install the package files from both (FireWireSDK26.pkg and the confusingly-named FireWireSDK23.pkg). This will create directories under /Developer on your system drive.
From /Developer/FireWireSDK26/FireWireComponents, install the Leopard Final drivers. Reboot.
From /Developer/FireWireSDK26/FireWireComponents, install the FireWireAudio 2.4 drivers. Reboot.
Select Software > Extensions on the left-hand browser. Look for AppleFWAudio, and make sure it is version 2.4.0.
From /Developer/FireWireSDK24/FireWireComponents, install the FireWireAudio 2.0.1 drivers. Reboot
From the Apple menu, select About this Mac, then click the More Info button to start System Profiler.
Select Software > Extensions on the left-hand browser. Look for AppleFWAudio, and make sure it is version 2.0.1.
Go to the System Preferences > Sound panel and try sound output to the Onyx Firewire 0838. It should sound clear as a bell.

I don’t know why installing the latest SDK FW base drivers and the FireWireAudio 2.4 drivers first was required before the 2.0.1 drivers would correctly fire up, but it was. One warning: do not install the Leopard FireWire (not FireWireAudio) drivers from the 24 SDK. This caused my machine not to boot correctly, and I had to repair it using another machine.

Here’s hoping this helps someone out in the wild. I’d post it to the Mackie forum, but the moderators there have yet to enable my posting rights. :(

Apple today made available the FireWire Reference Platform 1.0, a Software Development Kit (SDK) for embedded use in FireWire devices. The development kit is not OS specific, so developers on a variety of operating systems can use it.

The SDK released today is based on technology obtained from the acquisition of Zayante Inc. by Apple on April 4, 2002. Targeted to device manufacturers, Apple released the kit so developers could add to the variety of peripherals and consumer electronic products available to consumers today.

“What we want to do is enable people to quickly develop new applications for FireWire and take the fear out of FireWire and the software development that goes along with it,” Jon Rubinstein, senior vice president Hardware Engineering, at Apple told MacCentral. “This includes some of the rich capabilities that FireWire has like bus management, configuration, real-time transfer, as well as additional layers of support such as SBP-2.”

While Zayante used to sell this technology to companies that wanted to make peripherals or electronic products, Apple is giving it away for free. Apple did the same thing when it released an SDK to developers after it adopted the USB standard with the iMac.

Market research firm In-Stat/MDR expects FireWire-based products to grow by 21 percent this year. While digital camcorders and cameras are popular right now, researchers expect the technology to see more exposure as it expands to other consumer electronic markets and the automotive industry. Currently there are over 50 million FireWire-equipped PCs according to Apple.

“There’s been an increasing widespread use of FireWire solutions outside of the realm of the Macintosh, lately,” said Tim Deal, an analyst with Technology Business Research. “When it comes to digital video, for example, you are not going to download video using USB 2.0 — cameras are equipped with FireWire and if you do any video editing you will use a desktop or laptop that is FireWire enabled.”

Picking the right technology for the job

Apple has been on the leading edge of technology development or adoption for many years. Right now, Apple’s machines are equipped with a plethora of technologies that allow them to handle most peripherals and devices on the market today. Ethernet, USB, 802.11b and FireWire come standard on all of Apple’s computers — Bluetooth, with the use of a separate USB device available from Apple, can also be used.

But Apple doesn’t choose its technology without knowing where they are going with it; part of Apple’s success is picking the right technology and using it the right way.

“It’s not just a matter of choosing the technology and putting it on the logic board, but what do you do to make its success grow,” said Greg Joswiak, senior director of hardware product marketing at Apple.

“We have a very clear picture of our use for each technology,” said Rubinstein. “For example, we see Bluetooth as wireless USB and we see 802.11 as wireless Ethernet, so each technology has a sweet spot for its utilization.”

FireWire vs. USB 2.0

The debate about which technology is better — FireWire or USB 2.0 — has been going on since USB 2.0 was announced. While most people, including the USB 2.0 and FireWire technology forums, see the standards as complementary, some still see them as competing technologies.

“The only confusion comes from the fact that because the bandwidths are similar some people think that the technologies must be competing with each other. In reality, most people expect them to co-exist,” said Jozwiak.

While Deal agrees, he still thinks certain devices will still cause confusion for some consumers in the marketplace.

“There are certain complementary aspects of the technologies, but we are still going to see people in different camps over devices that could be either/or, such as hard drives or MP3 devices,” said Deal.

A new version of FireWire will be released in the near future that will double the speed of the technology.

“FireWire b has been ratified and I expect to see that coming soon. FireWire b is actually more efficient, performance is better and it’s cheaper — there’s a lot of good things coming shortly from FireWire,” said Rubinstein.

Apple would not say when, or even if, they would adopt USB 2.0 in their computers, but they are watching the technology.
