If nothing else, have it flash its lights to further enhance the studio magic.

Did you set up the TV to work at 60Hz and in Game (low latency) Mode? Otherwise, it is gonna' feel laggy. No reason it should slow down your computer.

I do not have this issue with my 828ES, Mac Studio, and the Apple TB Adaptor.

Warms my heart!

Yikes!

I've not had a similar experience, but my 828ES is used in a more typical studio setup.

Hope the show goes ok!

Every Audio/VI track has a similar "Enable" button. V-Racks can include more than a single track and can be utilized across multiple Chunks within a Project but, unlike V-Racks, Audio/VI tracks can be automated. In my template, I have each VI hosted in a Track; all Tracks start out Disable...

Mike Halloran:

Just want to say Thank You for keeping the flames of ye olde MOTU interfaces burning for so many MOTUNation members with your kind instructions! It is a beautiful thing.

One could bypass the "Convert all VIs to Audio" step prior to mixing and just go right to stem busses which feed audio tracks(for stem recording) and also fold down to the stereo audio mix...

That is so true!

I will note that Spotlight does an excellent job tracking down missing samples in Kontakt.

None. :smash: Let me take this opportunity to remind you of something you probably already know: you could increase the speed of your 2010 Mac Pro significantly for a total of $80 or less.

Any time I'm about to do something on my system that makes me nervous, I run a TM backup which will create an up-to-date APFS snapshot of my boot drive so I have something to fall back on easily in case things go wrong. James, are you running an SSD for your TM backups? If you are using a spinner, ...

Another one is that my metronome won't sound when I record (or playback), despite having selected it (and output channel etc is correct). If Metronome is lit (blue), typically clicks will not sound. I have to deselect metronome, then re-select DURING recording/playback for it to finally sound the c...
