I had an old TB adapter just up and fail on me, and had to buy a new one, and it worked as it should. Mind you, that was a pretty old adapter. To compound matters, there were other issues with a newer MBP and FW, unrelated to the adapter. But it was easy to sort because the failed adapter didn't wo...

I've had sporadic interface dropouts where I've had to reboot all of my hardware before the interface (828es) was recognized again. No trouble with any other hardware. I've narrowed it down to the Apple Thunderbolt adapter. It seems to flake out at times and needs to be unplugged from both ends to g...

Thanks, I think I will.

Confirmed it's the 828es MIDI. Can't transfer sysex with the 828es now. I can with other MIDI interfaces on the same and other DAWs. Tried so many different buffer and transmit combos. MOTU interfaces are known for MIDI issues ever since the USB era. Especially with sysex. I don't expect this to get...

I've noticed that since the last Pro Audio driver update, I'm getting memory corruption in an old Ensoniq DP/2 when sending sysex data from the 828es. Had no issues before. If I slow the sysex data transfer by half using the sysex app, I can send data without corruption. Something seems to have chan...

I wish I could remember what I did to fix this. I don't seem to have to do anything special in later operating systems, but in macOS 10.14 I had to do something in the web browsers. I think it was smooth scrolling or something like that that was messing with the link. Same issue for me. Browser woul...

Setting SysEx Librarian's transmit buffers to anything, but, "Default" did the trick.

I had issues with the MTP AV when sending clock data to an Ensoniq ASR-10. The ASR's MIDI buffers are low so they overflow easily and cause a system reboot. I couldn't put the ASR in clock slave mode to the DAW without the buffer overflow using the MTP AV. When I switched to an iConnectivity MIDI4+ ...

HI, I can dump and receive SysEx data from an Ensoniq DP/2 just fine using my iConnect MIDI hardware or an M-Audio USB to MIDI adapter. However, when I use the 828es, SysEx Librarian receives data but when it send it back, it's corrupt and the DP/2 needs resetting. I can send an old single bank SysE...

I've labeled my input and output channels for the 828es and created mixing, routing and device presets. Yet when Logic launches, it clears them all out. If I reload the presets then the routing and mixer config returns to what I set but the labels are still defaulted. I don't see any posts about thi...

Mine did this shortly after purchase, required a replacement. I get glitching on the USB side, seems to be software related, so I use TB. Using AVB on the 828es will heat it up much more and likely cause more problems. One of the first things MOTU techs seem to do is disable all the AVB stuff when t...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UePPBJ2kgSE Brand new unit. Happens out of the blue after playing music from Spotify or Apple's Music app. Might happen with others, haven't finished testing yet. Sometimes happens after a couple songs, sometimes it takes much longer. This is with the 828es clocked to...
