LightBridge - 02R synk ok, but still crackles
Hi folks
I just bought a Lightbridge (LB) to interface my Yamaha 02R with my PC. I used an RME Card before, but am now switching to Protools. I have everything connected and synched, 02R is my master at 48kHz and my PC is slave, the indicators on both the 02R and the PCs tell me that synching is ok. I can hear the audio coming from the PC, BUT there are between 2 and 3 crackles each second. Is kind of irregular. For the moment, I'm not using PT to play audio, I'm using Audacity or anything else, I guess it doesn't matter what software I use to play audio, as long as it crackles, there's an issue at another level. So I went trough the performance optimization guides posted here, I optimized my WinXP for max performance, I completely reinstalled WinXP and ONLY installed PT, but the crackles are still there... I wonder if anybody knows about issues concerning my setup? These are the next steps I'm going to take to track it down further: - Connect LB to my Laptop and see if its a PC or LB issue - Update BIOS - Add a Firewire Card instead using OnBoard - Create a hardware profile with even more reduced WinXP setup (no network, no onboard audio) - Install Is there anything else I could try? Thankful for any help... PC Setup: ASUS P4PE Motherboard, Pentium 3GHz, 2GB Ram, IDE HD (Boot), SATA Disk (Data), Radeon 9200 AGP, DVD-RW |

Does your FireWire expansion card have a Texas Instruments chipset? If not, that may be your problem.

I'd sync using word clock instead of the optical, More solid I'm guessing the 02r has Clock in and out???? Something you can try while waiting for you new FW Card

Re: LightBridge - 02R synk ok, but still crackles
I resolved it !!!
I used the ADAT1 for syncing... So guys, this is what I did: - I bought a brand new Texas Instruments Firewire PCI card - After deinstallation of the VIA FW and installation of the new card : STILL CRACKLES !!! - When my frustration was cooled down again, I tried the following: I deactivated Hyperthreading in the BIOS THIS was the solution... So please, DIGIDESIGN, push M-Audio to fix their drivers to cope with hyperthreading !!!! PLEASE !!! |
