  • Kona 2 i/o Firewire question

    Posted by Mark Tyson on July 29, 2005 at 6:57 pm

    I use an i/o now and I’m anticipating adding a Kona 2 card. My question centers around using the i/o as a conversion device. Obviously the G5 operates the i/o control panel through the firewire port, but once I launch FCP, does that disable the i/o as a stand alone device? Do I just use Kona setups in FCP and the i/o is just a firewire device out on it’s own accesed through the control panel? Just trying to figure all the audio and video routing. Hope this is clear.

    TIA

    You operate the control panel and you select the I/O device. You disable or enable.

    ….Do I just use Kona setups in FCP and the i/o is just a firewire device out on it’s own accesed through the control panel?
    Kona Setups for Kona I/O, iO setups for iO I/O. ( I always wanted to say that)
    FCP A/V setup determines the Input and output devices. Then if an Kona2 is the Input or Output device then the Kona Contril Panle takes over from there.

    ….Just trying to figure all the audio and video routing.
    Lots of options

    Hope this is clear.

    Fred;

    Thanks. Guess I better order the Kona. Sounds like the Kona & i/o work together very elegantly.
