During rehearsal last night my browser mixer repeatedly became unresponsive. The meters rose/fell in time, but nothing could be clicked/dragged for editing. Simply hitting COMMAND-R to reload the page fixed the issue every time. Keeping multiple tabs SEEMS to help - one for the mixer, one for routi...

Did MOTU ever resolve this for you? I think I am seeing the same behavior and will be putting in a ticket. No. They never got back to me after a certain point and I got bored of asking for an update every few months since they weren't responding. I thought of scheduling another phone support call b...

OK. It says it's the "MOTU Audio Installer."

Mac Studio M1 Ultra

Why FireWire? The only peripheral port I had left was a FireWire port on a dock. Why not?

Yup, I'm aware this is not motu.com :D 89555 is the one I'm using. I'd argue it was not clear to a new user that it would work in Ventura, even from that support note and the other articles on their site. Not to mention there's a lot of posts that make it sound like FireWire doesn't work in Ventura....

Yes I've connected it via AVB using the McFiver card and that worked the only issue I had was connecting via Thunderbolt. I have my 32R connected to the network port on the back of the 828es. Was just hoping somebody had this working and could tell me what I'm doing wrong. The Titan Ridge 2.0 flash...

Just leaving this here in case anyone else searches for info on the 4pre and FireWire down the road: I recently picked up a very affordable 4pre Hybrid because it was a good fit for a narrow little use case. I'm using a Mac Studio running macOS Ventura and I don't plan on updating the OS past this. ...

Once yesterday and once a few weeks ago I experienced something odd. Pressing the TALK button on my 828es crashed my DAW, Logic Pro.

Has anyone seen something like this happen before?

Also, when one of my three interfaces stops communicating with Pro Audio Control, it also stops communicating with the AVB Mixer on iOS as well.

Are me and EMRR the only people this happens to?

I thought I would post back here with an update. After more troubleshooting with MOTU, the issue occurs: on multiple Macs (Intel and Apple Silicon) in multiple browsers (Safari and Firefox) with multiple protocols (Thunderbolt and USB) using multiple interfaces (8A and two 828es units) in both mixer...

This is a long shot, but do your problems occur even after rebooting the interface and the computer? I have issues with the mixer page not responding to changes after long periods of time. This might not be your issue, though.

A majority of the messages were large dumps, but I was trying some editing as well.

MIDI Quest and Sysex Librarian. First tried a daisy chain then individual synths. It would range from not working to partial data all the way to wrong data. I can’t say I troubleshooted more than two sessions- once my Novation interface worked I decided I’d spent enough time on it and moved on.

Were you using with an Editor/Librarian or was it messing up packets of data being sent from a track in a Sequencer/DAW? It was a variety of situations. Mostly sysex dumps to and from various librarians with a handful of different synths. I tested dumps within my DAW once or twice but I don't use t...

Thanks Black-Man. Yeah. That sounds hard to believe that such a fundamental issue could happen with 828es. In a court of law, this is hearsay. I invite ANYONE who has actually experienced this FIRSTHAND to please chime in. In my post above, I said that I had. My 828es garbled Sysex data that worked ...

Does anyone know if the USB micro lite works well with a variety of Sysex data going in and out of it? I saw a warning in the MIDI Quest manual about some MOTU MIDI gear corrupting incoming and outgoing Sysex. My 828es messes up incoming and outgoing Sysex data, while my MIDI Express XT USB works fi...
