Basically, you take some stable firewire audio interface with two firewire 400 ports. Usually they have two ports. Firewire standard allows devices to be chained. Connect it with computer using Firewire 800-400 cable. Use second firewire port of audio interface to connect Presonus StudioLive mixing desk with Firewire 400-400 cable. You don't even need to install drivers for this old audio interface. I use Alesis iO 26 for that. But I believe that it should work just fine with every random firewire interface.

I have found a workaround how to make stable connection to my Mac. I use old firewire audio interface with two firewire slots. I connect it to my Mac, and use second slot to connect 16.0.2 mixer.

Thanks for information, but I think it not the simplest solution of this problem)) whether already Presonus cannot solve this bug programmatically. I think it a problem specifically of the firewire interface or the Firewire 800-400 standards! Maybe Firewire 400-400 would work more stablly? I bought the USB interface for playing of playback, but when I connect StudioLive mixing for record, again there are problems with reproduction of music!!! Can do it it is connected to not stability of power supply in the socket... These are only my guesses!
