We are talking firewire audio here and serr specifically mentioned apogee firewire, which do not have drivers for the newer macOS, it stopped with el capitan if i remember correctly., so basically as i have already said maybe its time to look at buying new hardware. (free)įYI: Songbird has been playing the surround library on shuffle for the last 14 hours with no hint of trouble. Highest res HD video + highest res HD 5.1 audio program and it just works. they made it even worse! I wouldn't have thought it possible.

I thought the GUI for XBMC was hands down the worst garish borderline nonfunctional GUI I've ever seen. I wonder if something in this is the root of recent complaints about newer versions of OSX? (Clicks and pops with aggregate devices complaints.)ĭownloaded the new version of XBMC Media Player - now called Kodi Player. It's 2018 and I'm just now entertaining the thought of using newer than 10.6.8 for home theater needs.

Software is not able to chase hardware but hardware is able to chase software. Two devices (one virtual) clocked "fast and loose" over a firewire data connection. Or if I'm missing a control panel setting and just ended up with 2 wrongs making a right in this scenario. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this and has any insight to what's going on behind the scenes. (audio only or audio + video) I am aware that the Apogee has a feature to chase and clean up jittery incoming clock signal, so I imagine this is what has my back here! But no audible artifacts with 24 bit 96k 5.1 program. I haven't recorded streams yet to verify 100% 1:1 samples so there may be a sample drop here and there. I can say that there is no problem with the audio. That's completely counter intuitive! What's going on here? clocking the built-in interface is what that ends up meaning) with the Apogee resampled is rock solid. But clocking from Soundflower (the virtual device so. Clocking from the Apogee with Soundflower resampled flat out doesn't work. Clocking from the Apogee works for maybe an hour and then the Soundflower connection drifts and the system must be reinitialized. What I can get to work is setting the clock master to Soundflower and ticking the resample box for the Apogee.

And 10.9 is supposed to be bug free with this whereas there are allegedly core audio bugs in newer versions. (Plan is to keep 10.6.8 as rusty but trusty, 10.9 for "modern-ish" DAW work needed for a handful of newer plugins, and then 10.13 for an "experimental" system and to feel like I'm keeping up with stuff and things.) I'm shaking this down in a 10.9.5 install. (And I see myself going back to 10.6.8 here and there likely indefinitely with the direction newer OSX builds are going!) This was my setup running in 10.6.8 for the longest time. It losses sync just once every blue moon. Obviously you can't connect word clock to a virtual audio device! (Or the built-in audio interface integrated into the logic board.) So I just let it clock over the data connection (firewire). It's really only proper to connect multiple devices with word clock for 100% stable operation. I've had the clock master set to the Apogee. Like 4.0 having a mono FL + FR mix in the Center channel when it's supposed to be digital zero.) Channels that are supposed to be silent stay that way (I mention this because some buggy media player apps will put weird mono folddowns into unused channels sometimes. I can even leave the system set to 5.1 in Audio MIDI Setup and all channel formats (2.0, 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1) come out the correct speakers. DAW app (Reaper) connected to aggregate device picks up the input from the Soundflower channels, does the speaker management, and routes the final output to the Apogee. OS audio routed to Soundflower (on channels 1-6). Aggregate device of my interface (Apogee Rosetta800 192k) + Soundflower. Soundflower (a virtual audio device) is installed.

I do the speaker management digitally using Reaper as a "plugin". The speaker array in this example is a small top 5.1 setup (5 mains that do highs/mids only with speaker management required to split out the bass content from the mains and route it to the Lfe combined with the original Lfe channel). It's just me in my listening room and no live audience, so occasional faux pas aren't a big deal and usually don't happen anyway. I also use one of my machines and interfaces for home theater needs and this is where I decided to play a little fast and loose with the rules for convenience.

Everything is perfect and I have wildly overpowered machines for my needs.

Sanity check welcome! Or just read if you like Sunday morning puzzles.įor professional audio work, I use standard practices as far as interface connections, clocking, etc go.
