Does anyone use an M-Audio Transit??

[colinharding]

I recently got a 64 bit computer and tried to reinstall the driver for my USB Transit from M-Audio. Its the 64 bit driver they now have, and everything in the install works fine. As soon as I connect the transit though the comp recognizes everything except for the device. So it appears in the playback devices as transit but it has no volume or capability to input or output anything. Anybody know whats happening here???? Help would be greatly appreciated as I can't listen to anything right now......

since my transit works fine in linux (64bit) as usb audio device, you could test what i was told by a windows user, that most functionality works with plain usb audio drivers, w/o the m-audio drivers, since you only seem to want to use it to drive your dac, maybe this may be a solution for you? too bad i have no vista64 machine around right now. else i would just try this myself.

where would i find these generic windows audio drivers? will they still output in 24/96 via the optical out? Thanks for the input though I really appreciate it.

Windows has them it's what makes all those PCM2702 and the like work. While watching my wife pick out fabric i realized a flaw in my thinking, the transit needs a firmware uploaded.
On linux a tool to do this exists, in windows i guess everyone is just using the m-audio drivers.
Sorry about that oversight on my part.

Can you get to the advanced tab and play the test tone, if it defaults to 24bit, switch it to 16bit, if it plays, switch to 24bit, should play too now.

USB Transit - no sound in Vista - The Official M-Audio User Forums

From there ^ i know it says 32bit, maybe the above driver version happens to be same for your 64bit Vista?

And on google this thread is already #6...maybe this helps get you a real answer

The M-Audio software should come with a firmware uploader that you can use.
upload the firmware with that after removing the m-audio driver, but not the software.
Then windows should recognize the transit as a usb audio compatible device.
