I just found my old rack mount external clock unit. It’s a Lucid GENx192. I have some empty spaces to fill up. I’m gonna throw it in the rack and do some experiments with it. In the past, I’ve actually had occasional issues with DP not changing project sample rates or thinking there was a mismatch b...

MOTU recommends an external clock when there are three or more units connected. If you have sync issues, connect it over USB 2 instead of TB. The 828x uses a built-in Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter for connectivity. Since all MOTU FW devices run at FW400 speeds, there's a chance that the Fast USB ...

Some others might have other opinions... but that's what I've always understood.

From what I have read and heard, if you use just a single interface (or even multiple older MOTU PCI "AudioWire" interfaces) there's no need to have an external clock. You only need it if you need to supply a clock source to synchronize multiple pieces of gear. There's not technical reason...

Now for the bad news: The Firewire to TB adaptor is sold out at Apple.com, unavailable at Amazon, and Ebay sellers are asking well over $100 for it. Reminds me of years ago when I was trying to find an Apple VESA adapter for my 24" DVI Cinema Display. They were impossible to find and some guy ...

It looks that way. It's a French company and it's just a prototype, but I could see this as having a lot of potential.

Good point! I didn’t notice that. I have moved it.

With this in mind, if I had say 500 stereo audio tracks which receive audio from the multi-outputs of my various Kontakt instruments and synths, you think that would tax my system LESS than 500 AUX tracks receiving input from the same VIs? I need to test this, and it would likely be easy to do in t...

I think the issue with Aux tracks is that any plug-in inserted on an Aux track must run in real time. It cannot use pregen.

I am using a MIDI Express XT and don’t have any problems with system exclusive. I’ve got no reason to try the MIDI interface built into my 828 ES, but If I had time I would experiment with it and see if I have the same issues. Just a hassle getting to it.

Sonoma Public Beta 4 is working just fine over here. I waited for the brave ones first... Like all of these things I guess it depends on exactly what software you depend on. Fortunately I don’t use Pro Tools primarily, because Beta 4 hosed Pro Tools and Console 1 for me in terms of being able to op...

This looks pretty cool: dTF_6zWtAXU It looks like a little display screen but with buttons and encoders that pop up through the screen so you can have different labels and templates appear around the encoders and buttons so it can be customized to whatever plugin/synth you are currently adjusting.
