Q: issues with logic X and uad apollo twin

Hello there guys!

 

I have recently purchased the Apollo twin solo and connected it via thunderbolt to my mac Mini and my DAW is Logic Pro X. I am experiencing serious latency problems when recording. The monitoring output comes out at Real time but the final recorded track is completely out of time. Any ideas???

 

Tkx for the help



Mac mini i7 Quad Sever | Dual SSDs | 16GB RAM | OS X 10.7.5 | Apollo Twin Solo| logic pro X

Logic Pro X, Mac OS X (10.0.x)

    Hi

     

    A couple of things to check:

     

    1) Logic Pro X:Preferences:Audio:Devices     Recording Delay Offset should be zero (or near zero)

     

    2) Any Latency-inducing plugins on Output channel?

    Hi! I had exactly the same problem using Apollo Twin Thunderbolt on my MacBook Pro, recording using Logic Pro X.

    I do not have the same problem using the Win on my MacPro.

    After some tweaking, I realise the problem will go away if I set the I/O buffer size under my MacBook Pro to 32 instead of 256 that I usually use. I couldn't understand the logic, but it works somehow.

    I do not think it is a problem of the computer or the sound interface. The problem will persist if it is due to either of these devices.

    I think the problem is with Logic. For some weird reason setting a bigger buffer actually slows down the data acquisition, leading to the lag that we experience.
