Music-making is supposed to be a pleasure, not a chore. So I took control of the problem and returned the Ultralite-mk3 to the shop.

So I'm outta here anyway now. Goodbye and good luck to all.

Re: NEW (3.6.8.1360) usb/firewire drivers posted today !

And what's next ? Is it a problem for you that Microsoft discontinued XP ????!!! Is it a real problem for you in that case to make music using Windows XP ? I'm not arguing about the pro's and cons of Vista, but about MOTU releasing a product they claim works with a specific operating system when it...

Re: NEW (3.6.8.1360) usb/firewire drivers posted today !

I'm using only WinXP SP3. Vista is unsuitable for stable work with audio. And never will be. What I've done ? Just followed these steps, as I've mentioned many times here before: ... And there's no problem. AT ALL. Excellent. I achieved exactly the same results using XP SP3. As for Vista. You say i...

Re: NEW (3.6.8.1360) usb/firewire drivers posted today !

There's no high pitched sounds and squeezing anymore. My Ultralite MK3 has been working perfectly with new drivers for a week. :D I'm very pleased for you but it's difficult to glean anything significant from that fact without knowing which operating system you're using and what you did to solve th...

I am now a former Ultralite-mk3 owner

Today, after all the problems I've had trying to get the Ultralite-mk3 to work with Windows Vista, I took the unit back to the dealer and exchanged it for something else (not an audio interface). Thanks to those in this forum, especially 'reeper', who contributed ideas for fixing the problem, even i...

Re: NEW (3.6.8.1360) usb/firewire drivers posted today !

This happens for me too. MOTU says they're working on fixing it mmm... It's not really good enough, though, is it? A company sells you a product (in the case of my Ultralite-mk3) for £425 saying that it works with Windows Vista. It doesn't work with Windows Vista. So we contact the company's so-cal...

Re: NEW (3.6.8.1360) usb/firewire drivers posted today !

Follow this steps: 1. Turn off your system and disconnect the MOTU 2. Use Add/Remove programs to remove the MOTU driver 3. Restart your system and load the MOTU driver (make sure the MOTU is NOT connected for this process). 4. Restart the system once the MOTU driver has been loaded. 5. Shut down th...

Re: NEW (3.6.8.1360) usb/firewire drivers posted today !

I installed these drivers today but they've made absolutely no difference to the problems I'm having trying to get the Ultralite-mk3 to work on a Windows Vista SP1 system. If anything, they've made the situation worse as I can't get Vista to recognise the Ultralite-mk3 as present. Click on the MOTU ...

I'm aware of the patch intended to fix a FireWire issue that arose from Windows XP's SP2, but not of one specific to Vista.

Re: Audio clip of Ultralite-mk3 drop-out issue

Because I like using Vista. Because MOTU advertised the Ultralite-mk3 as compatible with Vista. Because every other audio interface I own or have owned previously works with Vista (Edirol UA-25. FA-101 and UA-1EX, Phonic Helix Board 12 FireWire MkII). Because it's there.

Re: Motu Ultralite MK3 No Sound / High Pitch Noise VIDEO!

I am also using the Ultralite MK3 on a selfbuilt, three years old PC. AMD64 2,4 Ghz, 1GB RAM, Windows XP SP3. Here I have not one single drop out. The Firewire Chipset is from VIA. No problems with recognising the Motu. But if I install the SAME Windows XP SP3 version on the laptop... no recognitio...

Re: Motu Ultralite MK3 No Sound / High Pitch Noise VIDEO!

Thanks for your contribution. The thing is, though, the Ultralite-mk3 appears to be absolutely fine when operated in a Windows XP SP3 system on my computer. It's only with Vista that I have this problem. Therefore, rolling back certain drivers to their XP SP1 versions can't be done. I can understand...

Audio clip of Ultralite-mk3 drop-out issue

As discussed in a previous thread, I've been experiencing a problem of audio drop-outs and high-pitched squeals being produced by my Ultralite-mk3 whenever I try to use it in Windows Vista. To illustrate the issue, I've uploaded a 5MB audio clip to Rapidshare at http://rapidshare.com/files/160091088...

Re: Motu Ultralite MK3 No Sound / High Pitch Noise VIDEO!

Perhaps my celebrations were premature. Returning to my computer today, I find that I'm still getting the drop-out/squealing problem. And not just with Ableton Live 7 - it's happening to stuff played back in Windows Media Player too. This clearly requires a bit more work. I'm putting some more RAM i...

Re: Motu Ultralite MK3 No Sound / High Pitch Noise VIDEO!

But Reeper would it be possible that one could get 64samples buffer size with your drivers? For me as a DJ a very low latency is crucial. Any updates coming soon? 64 samples seems quite an extreme setting. I'm not a DJ, just a home recording enthusiast, but I generally find 256 samples sufficient f...
