Re: Bounce-to-Disk Counter Format

Mine always started at 0:00:00 until I moved to DP11, then it has always been 1:00:00. Is this a nod to ProTools? Everything I ever import from PT aligns at the 1 hour mark.

Re: AVB Interfaces Losing Sync with Browser Mixer

Those who work for MOTU have lost track of the fact they basically replaced my several year old 16A and Monitor 8 over misbehaviors related to this back around 2017-2108. At the time they guessed it was something to do with them being the earliest units having started with the earliest firmware vers...

Re: MOTU Drivers and Ventura

I gave up on TB connection for instance, it doesn’t seem to like the TB/USB3 adapters. Stable and no kernel panics since going back to USB. There’s threads here about all these issues.

Re: AVB Interfaces Losing Sync with Browser Mixer

I’ve always seen variations, far more since moving the the Studio last year. I vary rarely see meters for instance. More common now to have it freeze and not show some changes, while showing others. I’m finding a need to close it and reopen in a new browser window to discover mysterious behaviors.

You're just talking about the electrolitics, right?
Right. Usually also the majority in anything modern.

Re: Replacing ALL of the caps on my 1248 and one on my 16A…

Yes, heat causes accelerated degradation, caps are rated for a life span that derates with heat. That can really dry out all the caps in a unit experiencing the same heat conditions. These units run hot, they must have open space above and below (THE MANUALS SAY SO!), and they still get warm like th...

Re: "File Not Found (-43)"

Happened a lot this weekend, multiple times a complete freeze requiring force quit, wouldn't save. Occasionally it went away and I could continue. Every time I had a look and it was always at the end of an automatic time machine backup. TM is a USB3 Samsung T7 APFS volume. Maybe not related, but.......

Re: Can't remove outdated MIDI destination from Project.

Not the same but feels the same:

Older session re-opened with missing plugs - clear missing. Then if you duplicate a mix, or change mixes, it always asks about the missing plugs even though they’ve been cleared and no longer exist.

Re: Can't remove outdated MIDI destination from Project.

I have a message about a missing controller on sessions of a certain age, never clears/dismisses no matter how many new project versions are saved, no place to delete it. Annoying.

Re: How to measure headroom?

A headroom mystery I have yet to answer regarding 32 bit float - had a bounce that showed clipping at roughly +3.5, turn the bounce file down below zero, yep, definitely clipped. The theory of 32 bit float says this shouldn’t happen. There were no mix bus plugs.

Re: Does MOTU has an "out of warranty" repair policy?

It's possible they will sell a replacement power supply module, they have been doing so with 16A's recently. There does not seem to be any repair service since Covid. They would previously offer a replacement unit at a nominal charge, and I suspect then repair the returned unit to use as someone els...

Re: External pre-amps into MOTU 896

Looks like using the line switch position adds an extra amp stage over using it in pre position. Unless you’re using the pga path…. Block diagrams like this aren’t always truthful. Which gain stage do you mean? The PGA itself is the controllable gain knob (10-65dB) of the preamp, which always appli...
