Default MBox Pro (3rd Generation) and PT10


Having issues playing back a simple 2 track session with PT10 and Mbox Pro running Mac OS 10.7.2,with Mac Pro,Macbook Pro, getting (-6085 errors) regardless what HW buffer settings I do.
Has anyone ran into this problem yet?

Also I rolled back to Mac OS 10.6.8 and PT 9.0.5, still having the same issues error of -6085 "Audio device buffer underflowed"
I have done all the troubleshooting to the best of my knowledge and used Avid tips, but no luck.

That´s strange. I have the same setup as you & everything runs extra smoothly after the upgrade.

Sold my Duet 2 and got the Mbox 3 Pro and all is well so far. Much prefer the sound too.

This happens regularly with my mBox2 Pro and certain FW800 drives. I've found zapping PRAM resets the buss and they all play nice together again. However, if I reorder or add drives, it can come back. I've been unable to isolate the certain sequence that causes it for me but it is definitely tied to certain drives.

Maybe what you're seeing...give it a try anyway.

Good luck

I'm having this same issue with my Mbox 3 Pro.
How do you 'zap' the Pram?
This error is driving me crazy......
