Error while trying to sync audio and midi when opening UAD console

Hi,

Sync issues can be tricky and in some cases they are due to a system bottleneck.

Apple has this https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204466

Do you have any other audio devices open (e.g. Spotify, iTunes, youtube etc ) ?

• If yes this can cause sample rate conflicts.

Are you using a hub to connect the Apollo?

• If yes try removing and testing.

Are you writing to an external drive? Using a hub with the drive?

• Try testing with a project on the internal HD
• Remove the hub in the path to the drive and test.

Fun Question: What colour is your play head? Is it blue? This means logic is set for external or manual MIDI Sync.

• Try setting the File : Project Settings : Synchronization : Sync Mode to "Internal"

If you do a cold boot ( full power cycle everything ) restart, launch the the Meter and Console

Go into Logic: Do you get the same error?

You may need to reach out to UAD, they may have a solution based upon experience.

If none of this helps can you elaborate on your environment?

I hope this helps

Hi Justin,

Try the following

Logic : Preferences : Audio : Devices :

• Multithreading: Playback and Live Tracks
• Summing: High Precision (64 bit )

Preferences : Audio : General:

• Plug-in Latency : Compensation: All ( this is critical with UAD to manage the external device with Logic. Note you may notice some UI lag (i.e. meter needle) with the UAD plug-ins with this setting. )

Also

UAD Meter and Control Panel

Configuration: UAD-2 DSP check Extra Buffering

Hope this helps.

Don
