Steinberg MR 816 csx

[plithner]

Hello!

I recently purchased a firewire soundcard from Steinberg/Yamaha, the MR 816 csx. Why, you may ask? Well, because it was cheap at $40 or so... Still it seems to be a fairly good sound card with decent preamps.

As far as I can tell,  it works very well as an audio interface to cakewalk, but I also wanted to make use of the DSP effects in the soundcard (a reverb and a channelstrip). 

However, when I try to use these in Cakewalk, e.g. like this: 

 

my system crashes:

 

 

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to start looking?

I have the latest update of Cakewalk as well as the drivers for MR 816, and to the firewire card.

THANKS!
