Re: Beachballs on the reg

About 20 years. No Kontakt. Ok. Deleting the VI cache files solved this for many of us. Not to worry about deleting anything necessary as all apps rebuild missing caches and preferences when necessary. I now do this once a year. To delete the VI caches, open the following folder: com.motu.MotuAudio...

Re: Trouble remembering Micro-lite settings.

I have a couple things to add. After installing MOTU drivers in High Sierra or later, you have a 30 minute window to do the following. If you miss it, reinstall and try again. https://motu.com/techsupport/technotes/enabling-motu-drivers-mojave The MOTU MIDI installer sometimes has conflicts with oth...

Are you a long time DP user?

Do you use Kontakt?

Re: "Upgrading" interfaces.

To my knowledge, this is not possible. I may be wrong. I didn't think so, but thought I'd ask anyways. The Audiowire port is exclusive to MOTU, but it is a firewire cable that connects the two? Can "regular" firewire devices (Like the 828MKII) connect to an Audio wire port (on the PCIe 42...

Re: Komplete Kontrol crashes MBP M3 in DP11.31

MacOS 14.5 beta 4 dropped yesterday. There was a minor Kontakt GUI window issue present in beta 3 that appears to be fixed.

I expect that the 14.5 general release will happen before the WWDC next month. Other than that, my crystal ball is blank.

Re: Mac "cleaning" app?

I agree with Apple Support:
CleanMyMac is not needed on Apple computers. It can harm user files, lead to poor performance and an unstable Mac. If installed, we suggest that it be deleted

Re: Komplete Kontrol crashes MBP M3 in DP11.31

As of Ventura, APFS Snapshots can no longer roll back the macOS Volume but it can restore the Data Volume as it did before—as long as this is done within the 24 hour window.

Re: Sonoma 14.4 crash/kernel panic/reboot with Kontakt 7

I have a few days between deadlines so I downloaded public beta 4…

So far, so good. The flickering of the GUI on side monitors is gone.

Re: Motu M2 Issue with Siri and Dictation - RESOLVED

Glad to see this resolved. I’ve sold my M2 and was arranging to borrow back my M4 today to test this. It hadn’t occurred to me that I use Channel 1 of my AIR 192|14 for System audio.

We learn new things all the time (looking for that face palm emoji).

Re: Komplete Kontrol crashes MBP M3 in DP11.31

There is a bug in the communication layer of the current macOS. At the moment, you have two choices: Update to the macOS 14.5 beta 3 (available now) or wait till the general release. This is similar to the problems that users are having with Kontakt 7. https://www.motunation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?...

Re: 828 mk3 Hybrid- Constant issues with Sonoma..

Try removing all of the MOTU driver files from your system. MOTU should have given you the list. If not there are older threads. Install the 828 driver only: MOTU Audio Installer Mac v89555 | Oct. 13, 2021 macOS 14, macOS 13, macOS 12, macOS 11 See if you still have a problem. The M2 does not requir...

Re: Sonoma 14.4 crash/kernel panic/reboot with Kontakt 7

Antares is not working over Sonoma for anyone as far as I know. The issue is that their plugs cannot verify the licenses. The license manager opens but no-go. Apple Silicon is not the issue. Are you guys saying that Antares plugins aren't working in DP/Sonoma or Sonoma in general? The only Antares ...

Re: 828 MK2 standalone mode and ADAT

No battery. It's supposed to remember your setups. I would shut down the 828mkII first before ending your session in case your computer is sending a message that changes your settings. The last one of these was made late 2006 ane the rest are older. It's possible that component is no longer function...
