How are your TI's running now guys?

[rsformatc]

Hi Ben, nope using the TI USB ASIO. Tried all combinations of ASIO, USB, MidiClock, Project and Audio Mixdown Sample/Bit Rate.

Sometimes the export is spot on, but can never do it twice in a row!

Have also tried using a pre-roll but doesn't seem to help.

The Virus and the Cubase dongle are the only USB connections.

AMD 2800
ASUS MB with nVidia nForce2 chipset
1 GB Ram
Also have an Audiophile 2496 PCI card but only using that for recording audio now.

Any ideas?

What is it that goes out of time? The arps? If so, how far out do they go?

[rsformatc]

Everything from the Virus is out of time. If I export 1 bar with 4 beats (a simple bass patch will do) and then play the audio together with the original the beats are out of time. When I look at the audio sample the wave starts sometime after the first beat at varying lengths. There is a delay on recording which I thought should be compensated for automatically. The sample itself seems in time though. Should I need to make a manual letency adjustment? Not sure I could though as the delay seems to vary from one export to another. Am I missing the point of waht sample accuracy is meant to achieve?

Latency comp is on. Have also tried it off.

Try going into the ASIO control panel as soon as SL has loaded, and 'change' the Application Priority to a different setting. Then close it and click Apply.

Now try your export - any difference?

[rsformatc]

Doesn't help.

I also noticed before Cubase doesn't seem to remember that the app priority has been changed, it is always on 'High'.

Tried exporting the bass line 3 times in a row without making any changes in between and got 3 different results! It is not even consistently out!

Yes - it takes this setting from the VST Audiobay>Expert>Audio Priority setting. You should check in here for other settings to tweak (at least try setting Audio Priority to Normal)

Well, it exports fine in SX3.1.1. under TIOS 1.07, so I'm thinking it's got to be something in your system - if fiddling around in the Expert panel doesn't help, I'd suggest reinstalling SL3 and checking your motherboard BIOS is up-to-date.

I have tried many settings, re-installed Windows and Cubase SL. There is nothing much else running on this machine. A bit lost for things to try, but the Polar isn't much use to me if I can't export audio.

Access know about my issue, but if others are not having a problem I don't hold out much hope of a solution.

Thanks for trying.

Does the audiofile software allow some sort of outputs rerouting back into an ASIO application (similar to RME`s TotalMix, for example)? if it does you can probably workaround the export problem by recording the Ti streams back into audio tracks in cubase.

Investing in a separate PCI USB controller might also prove helpful. I`m gonna pick one up tomorrow in hope it will somehow help my arp timing problems in Nuendo and SX.

hearing all other user reports, I can`t recall encountering another USB device that proved to be as system sensitive as the TI (:sigh.


Best,
midi.

It will be interesting to see what happens with the USB PCI controller.

Good luck!

I've tried the PCI usb thing and get identical bugs, don't bother.
