Well they are the only company, out of all the things I that plug into the computer, that has not written new drivers for 64 bit Win 7 machines, Then I found out they stopped selling the multimix 8, pulled it from the stores, which to me says a ton about their future intentions. I would say they have few intentions of being an up to date company. From the way they are acting, like this whole problem suddenly appeared one morning right out of the blue. They are also claiming it's too expensive to write new drivers, something about the hefty Fees M$ demands for each one, I guess they are NOT looking for any new customers with new computers. As they wrote to me back in November it could be a year, ore more, before they fix the 64 bit driver for Vista, Win 7, forget it,maybe never they actually called me stupid for doing the upgrade, even though it was at their suggestion. And Alesis isn't going to be fixing anything any time soon. What I found out is, Microsoft in its infinite wisdom changed all the rules for Firewire drivers in Win 7 I only know that because I stumbled onto the White paper they posted online. I too bought a Multimix 8, last spring, then I had to wait a few months to buy a faster computer because mine was too slow to run the Firewire lines, Then, because it's 64 bits I couldn't get it to work, not in Vista it wouldn't, and everyone's big fix suggestion, get Win 7, a total of about 8 months went by before I got the upgrade disk, on about November 24th 2009, and it still won't work.
