Though now that you mention it, the SSD was USB-C but I needed to use its USB-C-to-A cable to make it work with my older MacBook, instead of C-to-C. Yes it was an external, but it was an SSD - I thought that might have mitigated any bandwidth issues. Is there a reason I should turn DVS's latency down as a general rule of thumb? I just don't know enough about it.Īnd the internal-vs-external drive thing is also interesting to me. I look at it much the same as when I'm recording an instrument into a DAW I turn latency down because I have to monitor myself - but then when it's mixdown time I turn latency all the way up so the plugin processing doesn't cause clicks and pops. I've never used Dante for anything else except an audio interface between an A&H console and a DAW - since there's no round trip back into the console from the DAW for in-ears or processing or anything, I figured there's no harm in setting the latency high. I have to admit - latency as it refers to DVS has always been slightly confusing to me. Right now I have the clock grand master set to the A&H internal clock - I will double-check that flag in DC as well to make sure. Hey! I will double-check that clock sync is holding the next time I go in, tomorrow - I'll set up a dummy recording session and let it run for a while and see if DC spits out any errors. I don't believe the ethernet cable is shielded, though I've recorded via DVS without a shielded cable before without issues.Īny thoughts or starting points from the Dante-savvy on this board? Thanks everyone! Other Dante devices on the network are 5 headphone boxes - they are subscribed to the Allen & Heath via Dante Controller as well.Ĭould it be a power issue? Or a hard drive issue? I'm recording direct to a Samsung external SSD.

One thought I had is that I just kept Logic tracking without stopping for more than an hour, without saving or starting a new session.but that doesn't sound like it would be the problem. I started getting clicks and pops occasionally (once every 3-4 min) at about hour two of the recording. I did a long session last night, tracking a band. I'm also running Dante Controller on the same Macbook.

Hey folks - I'm using Dante Virtual Soundcard with the Allen & Heath SQ-6 and Dante expansion card to multitrack on my 2015 Macbook Pro.
