Is this normal performance for Artist Mix?

[reflekshun]

I have made a video of the performance I'm getting using the Avid Mix.

I have just updated to the latest eucontrol and firmware.

As you can see in PT and LPX, moving a physical fader is VERY jittery (this translates to very jittery automation too when recorded). I have to use mouse to fix every single automation recording I do, which seems counter productive to the whole point of this thing.

As you can also see at the end - moving faders on PT and LPX will move faders on the hardware perfectly, very smooth and zero jitter.

Is this normal?

If not any ideas on what might be the cause of this jitter?

Obviously, this is not normal and usually caused by the network. How are you connecting the Mix to PT... direct cable or through a router or switch ?

Did you figure out the problem you were having?

Thanks for the reply! I am connecting with a direct cable from the avid mix to the cat5 network plug on the back of an iMac Pro.
I also tried swapping out the cable for another newer one today, but same performance issues remain there too.

Considering it's so direct I am a bit out of ideas on what could be causing connection issues, I'm not very well educated on the software side of networking either. Any ideas to try would be greatly appreciated.

I'll be checking this thread more often, sorry I took a while to get back on this one!

Just went through all of those tests and they work 100%

No worries at all, appreciate the efforts - it's happening on a blank project with one empty audio track on an iMac Pro so the CPU is not struggling here.

Do you have any other controller enabled in Logic ?
