every few seconds latency rises a small amount, enventually surpassing 10ms after 3 or 4 minutes. Mac Book Pro 10.3.6 - 48kHz device config - connected to the secondary port of C元,Įthernet through thunderbolt - CAT5 cable - same as always.Įverything looking fine, except that the latency report of the mac reveiled increasing latency. I managed to route the outs of the desk to DANTE outs, and in Dante controller assign the DANTE outs of the desk to the inputs of my Mac / DAW (pro tools is used)Ĥx4 or 16x16 or 32x32 or 48x48 or 64圆4 channels seemed to stream properly into reaper flawlessly, FOH was OK, but the recordings are totally currupted, even at 4x4 tracks!! I managed to setup connection between the desk and the mac So how exactly do i have to connect to such a system?īut this time it was a total desaster. As a freelance-engineer i have to accept and work with what the system engineers have set up, i'm not in the position to change that.

Most of the times it works, sometimes after a couple minutes, sometimes after half an hour.īut there is this misconception on how to set up a proper DANTE-network: Somtimes i need to restart DVS, sometimes not. Most of the time it's a plain simple setup: yamaha desk and my mac at FOH, RIOs on stage. 90% of the time i run into a Yamaha CL1/3 or QL1, sometimes i see an Allen and Heath desk.

As a freelance engineer i need be able to hook up to a Live-Rig to record the live-performance into my DAW (Reaper / pro tools).
