Midas Venice F24 Firewire card

[Amos Shochat]

Hi,
I have a 5 years old Midas Venice F24 board which is connected to my PC via a Firewire connection.
Unfortunately, it looks like the on-board F24 Firewire card stopped functioning and I lost the PC-Venice connection (I did all the trivial and preliminary procedures such as restarts, ASIO driver update etc.).
I'm looking to buy a used\new Venice F24 Firewire card. In addition, I'm looking for electronic schema of the this card.

Any kind of help will be highly appreciated,

Amos Shochat

I just received a new firewire card and will install this weekend. Give these guys a shout and they'll hook you up.

Hi.
I am the lucky owner of a VF24 but my FireWire card no longer works. Then the desk loses all its interest ... Where can I get a new FW card? Is it easy to replace? Alan where did you get an FW card?
Thank you very much for your replies

Scroll down, go to spare parts, contact them and tell them you need a firewire board for a Venice F. Sorry, sticker shock, but the part was over $320 about six months ago, no telling how much now. And you will need to remove the back panel of the mixer, find and remove the firewire board, and replace. It's not too bad. Hint: mark your ribbon cables BEFORE you pull them off, like 1-8, 9-16, 17-24, etc. Will help insure you put em back on right.

Hi, I have the same problem and wonder if you got a spare FireWire card for your VF24 from the Midas support. Can you tell us how it went?
