Re: Protools HD11 - Coreaudio - negative H/W Insert Offset required?
Have you posted to Lynx? I've had good support from them. Can't help with the CoreAudio questions, since I don't use it or know how it behaves with hardware inserts.

Re: Protools HD11 - Coreaudio - negative H/W Insert Offset required?
Hey Matt!
I have - the response was "try entering a negative value" in the H/W Offset Delay tab. It doesn't work - Protools throws up a "value outside the required ranges of 0 - 1000) or something along those lines. The H/W offset delay is a positive value, but it is subtracted from the total delay compensation from what I have witnessed. That is what puzzles me - why is protools compensating too much for hardware inserts in my system? While I am not inclined to rule out the LT-USB card as a contributor to this issue, both Protools HD and Protools Vanilla don't have even remotely modern ADC implementation when it comes to running ASIO/Coreaudio drivers and handling hardware inserts. Heck, if Avid could revamp the hardware insert "plugin" to include output and input level meters plus a "ping" function that calculates the ADC requirements upon initiation I would be a very happy man. As it stands, even Ableton Live handles outboard inserts better than either version of Protools running coreaudio/asio interfaces.

Hardware inserts on non-HD gear, even with HD software, is ok so long as you don't mind a bit of timing 'looseness'. For me, its ok most of the time, a few samples out on outboard reverbs is neither here nor there, IMO. But, compared to, say, Cubase, PT's hardware inserts facilities are definitely striaght out of the dark ages.

I have the same problem. For two months, no solution found.

Re: Protools HD11 - Coreaudio - negative H/W Insert Offset required?
I could not reproduce this with Pro Tools HD 11.2.1 on OS X 10.8.5 with a few different interfaces, but did see it occasionally with an Alesis iO|2 (have not found repeatable steps to make this happen though, and it was pretty rare). I don't have an Aurora 16 or Orion 32 to test.

Hey JC!
Thank you for your reply. I will run some more tests, trying changing buffer sizes, etc as well as repeating them on a 2013 macbook air and post the results.

I was using a Lynx Aurora with PT10/11 HDX, but ended up giving up and getting an Avid interface. While I love the Aurora interface, there's a whole lotta issues going on, that Lynx Support weren't able to answer for me, mostly related to H/W Inserts and clocking, as I was also trying to run it with a 192. Its a real long story of my woes with this unit which came after upgrading to the latest firmware (so it appeared as the Avid HDI/O in PT, for use with PT10 & HDX). I spent hours on the phone and multiple in depth emails detailing my problems and how to repeat it, but they never saw it to an end and I couldn't carry on with such an unstable device in my rig, so it was replaced. Maybe you're having different troubles, but sounds pretty similar. Might be worth trying an Avid HD I/O see if that has same issues, as when I changed over, everything was instantly fixed. Sounds great too. Forrester |

Hi JC, I had a chance to run some tests. Unfortunately I don't have another interface to test this with. I will see if I can get my hands on one. I have attached a screenshot of the playback engine window. I ran a test after changing the sample buffer from 128 -> 256 -> 512 -> 1024. The resulting audio was the same 7 samples ahead every time. This test was done with PT HD 11.2.2.
