Re: Mac Studio won't reliably shut down, but restarts with error
Hi I came across this discussion while searching for solutions for my Mac Studio M2 issues. Got the computer in June and used it with my Ultralite Mk5 with decent (not perfect) reliability. However a month ago I started getting random restarts and shutdowns. The last shutdown was terminal as the com...

Re: MoTU Ultralite Mk5 MIDI Not Recognised at Boot
Ok thanks. I guess I'll have to look for a solution elsewhere.mikehalloran wrote: ↑Wed Mar 08, 2023 9:01 amNo.LondonMike wrote: ↑Tue Mar 07, 2023 12:40 pm …
Would the one supplied with the unit (USB C to USB A) be the culprit?
Those that have had issues caused by cabling report that the factory cable works fine.

Re: MoTU Ultralite Mk5 MIDI Not Recognised at Boot
My only suggestion is using a cable that supports USB 2 only. Many cables supporting USB 3.0 and higher are not properly wired for USB 2 (those higher protocols are not backward compatible—it’s the cable that must be properly wired), especially USB-C cables (USB-C is a port, not a protocol). A cabl...

Re: MoTU Ultralite Mk5 MIDI Not Recognised at Boot
I'm having this exact same problem! I found that creating a new MIDI set-up in Logic solved it...for a few days but now it's started happening again. The last two days every time I boot up the unit won't transmit MIDI from my Roland keyboard to Logic. Sometimes even creating a new MIDI setup doesn't...

Ultralite Mk5 cutting out and other issues
I've replaced my Ultralight Mk3 Hybrid which was connected to my Mac Pro (late 2013) via a FW400 to TB adapter, with the MK 5. The Mk 3 always worked flawlessly but I'm having a number of unpredictable and erratic issues with the new unit. I'm waiting for a replacement unit as that's the only way to...
