digital distorted noise while using aggregate driver??

Post by andivienna »

hi,
yesterday i recorded a live session for 90 min in Logic, 48kHz, 24Bit.
Today when listining through, i recognised the beginning sounds good.
after some time on most tracks there is a slow fade in of some very disturbing noise, but its not really noise, it sounds more like digital failures... This noise stays for quiet a time and then fades away again...
hmmmmmmm.....
any idea???

i used one 828mkII USB2.0 and one 8pre FW (=16tracks)
to use both i had to set uop an aggregate driver. i think i remeber reading a similar failure when someone used his aggregate driver...
Do you think this is the problem??

i will change the 828 to a second 8pre anyway, cause i need a quick access to gain of the signal, so in the future i will not use this aggregate driver..

BUT: I am interested if this was the problem or something else???

On the meters the signal was not distorted... and it doesnt sound distorted but (digitally) destroyed...

Thanks for any help..

I have also experienced this horrible digital noise! I am getting messages of "error trying to synchronise audio and MIDI" at the same time.

I don't know what could have changed. I haven't made any updates recently... any ideas?

Have you resolved this problem? If so, please let me know how!

i just listend again and found out that the problem is just on the tracks recorded with the 8pre.. the disturbance is on all 8 tracks, and its getting louder the louder the signal on the specific track..
the tracks of the 828 are fine all the way through...
Any idea??
