Re: New MOTU AVB Interface!! - The 16A

This looks great! I was starting to wonder if MOTU had any hardware updates in the pipeline. Now give this treatment to the 1248 and 24i and I'll get out my credit card :D

Re: Eurorack Integration: Ableton CV Tools / UltraLite / ES-3

You're not running at 96K are you? Just a thought. Also, I would try downloading the demo of Expert Sleepers Silent Way and see if you get the same result when sending CV out to the ADAT channels. It basically does the same thing as CV tools but differently. I actually prefer it.

Re: Eurorack Integration: Ableton CV Tools / UltraLite / ES-3

This won't be much help, but I can say for myself I use an 828x tethered to an ES3 and an ES8 via ADAT. I've never had this issue with either Ableton's CV tools or Silent way. It always just worked. Honestly can't think of anything that might be causing this.

Re: 2408 MK3 as ADAT Expansion

I don't know why I sat on this for so long, but I was looking through my closet of old gear and saw my 2408MK3 sitting on the shelf with the ADAT logo staring at me. I switched to an 828x years ago to get away from PCI interfaces due to switching to a laptop. It never occurred to me I could simply ...

Re: DP11 is 3 years old today

My longstanding wish for any DP upgrade is the revival of their Volta plugin. I've accumulated a decent amount of Eurorack gear since they shelved it. MOTU was among the first to jump into controlling modular synths with DC coupled audio interfaces with Volta. They have the technology. I would love ...

Re: Catastrophic OS Failure - Reinstall/Restore all settings

Hi OP. IMHO, you made the right decision. Yeah, I agree. It's been refreshing knowing all the old unneeded crap I had installed is gone. In the old G4 days I would do this occasionally as a kind of defrag method. I know it's different now with modern hardware, but it still feels like spring cleanin...

Re: Catastrophic OS Failure - Reinstall/Restore all settings

Thanks, that's what I was looking for. I keep my project files on an external drive, so its just the custom settings I was missing I wiped the HD and reinstalled everything from scratch, OS included. The reason I did not want to do a complete Time Machine restore is that it would likely copy over cr...

Catastrophic OS Failure - Reinstall/Restore all settings

So the subject says it all. For the first time in many years I had a massive failure of my Mac Mini. Luckily I have a good Time Machine backup of everything. I've opted to do a manual install of everything just to keep things tidy. I've done some digging, but I'm not coming up with a solution, in pa...

Re: MOTU announces new 828 interface

I don't know, but honestly I would've been surprised if they added AVB to the 828 which has been around for a long time in many forms. Seems like when they started with the AVB systems they put them in a separate category altogether. I'm currently still using my 828x on an Intel Mac mini. Since I've...

Re: MOTU not exhibiting at 2024 NAMM?

It's a bummer, but totally understandable. A lot of the bigger companies started peeling away from trade shows even pre-covid. MOTU always had such an awesome booth. Couldn't have been cheap or easy to pull off. Even tho I didn't attend every year, it was always fun to meet up at El Torrito on Frida...

Re: MOTU HARDWARE AVAILABILITY - MIA

I've been wondering too. I've had my eyes on getting a 1248/24i combo for maximum external synth connectivity. I understand the supply chain issue, but I wonder if reports of failing units had MOTU think about a redesign? Anyway, my 828x still works fine so I'm good. BTW that new Arturia AudioFuse 1...
