Re: Ongoing Ultralite mk 5 issues digital noise on M1max
Very disheartened to hear that Ventura did not solve the problem for one of the above users. I still can't update as too many 3rd party plugs I use regularly are not ready for Ventura yet. My ultralite mk5 sits here collecting dust depreciating while my Focusrite Clarett plus 8pre does all the heavy...

Ongoing Ultralite mk 5 issues digital noise on M1max
While I have commented on some other threads here where users were having similar issues, I figured I'd make my own thread with my experience. Motu have shipped me 2 replacement units (so 3 units in total). I'm still getting random bit crushed sounding digital noise from all 3 of these units. It hap...

Re: MK5 Dropout/Delay
I hear what you are saying Mike. But yes even a couple milliseconds of added latency can be irritating, especially for singers actually. The comb filtered chorus effect against ones own voice in their ears is noticeable for sure. I notice it on my own voice right away, even with low buffers. Actuall...

Re: MK5 Dropout/Delay
Your error messages can be a bad USB cable. USB 3 and USB 2 are separate protocols and a USB 3 cable not wired correctly can have crosstalk issues. If you are not connecting directly using a USB 2 cable, do so. You can get USB 2 over USB-C if needed. USB-C is a port, not a protocol. Sounds like an ...

Re: MK5 Dropout/Delay
Thanks for the update. MOTU tech support told me to uninstall the MOTU driver and use class compliant driver instead... But I can't tell if this fix the problem or not, since it happens in a totally random way. Now seems fine... but it may crash just at the soundcheck, as it happened before! Sounds...

Re: MK5 Dropout/Delay
Update.....so MOTU has me running some debug software to try and find the problem....it shows USB audio errors, which is no surprise to me as that is the exact issue I and others are having. Have submitted the terminal log to them...lets hope they can get it figured out!

Re: MK5 Dropout/Delay
My Ultralite mk 5 is sitting unplugged at the moment as I have jobs to get off my desk, gigs to prep, etc etc. I've been using my clarett plus 8pre for 2 weeks instead without a single issue with DP. Doing live rehearsal (live inputs), Composing with virtual instruments, mixing etc. Flawless. I have...

Re: Outbursts of crackles and digital sounding distortion with 8 pre ES
Interesting, for me Ultralite mk 5 is USB only so, thunderbolt no help here. Yes, right now my unit is useless for client work. Thankfully I have another interface, but I'm thinking if they can't sort this to ask for a refund and move on to another brand. Another interesting thing...Out of the blue ...

Re: Outbursts of crackles and digital sounding distortion with 8 pre ES
I'm having the same issue with Ultralite Mk5 running DP11. Most current everything, driver, firmware and dealing with MOTU. 16 inch m1max. I'm a guitar player. Same distorted dropouts, then random latency. I get none of these issues with my Clarett plus 8pre. I spent a ton of time trouble shooting t...

Re: Sudden high pitch distorted sound: Why is my new interface doing this? - RESOLVED
I've been having this issue on my 16inch m1max MacBook Pro when I plug a guitar in live. Never hear it on playback. Tried different USB cables...no fix. I decided to try the ultralite mk 5 plugged into my Kensington thunderbolt 4 dock instead of directly into the computer...I haven't heard the sound...

Re: Project taking 5-10 mins to open
I'm having this same problem on a large project (30GB of audio data). No plugs or VIs. Imported from an AAF created in Pro Tools. It takes forever on the "Reading Project" load menu. I tried doing a save as and duplicating all audio. Still the same issue. I want to use DP instead of protoo...
