DP8 & Apogee Quartet

Post by Rick Cornish »

Anyone using DP8 with an Apogee Quartet? I'm finally getting around to configuring my system this week and would appreciate hearing about any experience you might have with setup, monitoring, Maestro, latency issues, etc.

Thanks in advance for any insight or advice you'd care to share.

I have a Duet 2!
Aside from the I/O, I think its pretty much the same as the Quartet.
Regarding Maestro, I always monitor through it so there is no latency.
In DP, make sure you select in the menu Studio->Audio Patch Thru->Off so you don't get double the signal if you use hardware monitoring from Maestro.

It works flawless on my system.

cheers
