First, you don't have to say yes to the return to defaults question. I never do that if I know nothing has changed. Many times this kind of thing is a ASIO/MME thing. Try switching those two. If you use ASIO do you have more than one program using ASIO open? Remember ASIO is a one trick pony with PG's stuff. If you have both Biab and RB or any other program open at the same time using ASIO, you can get errors.




ASIO and ASIO4ALL don't work at all so I don't even attempt to use them. When I try to use ASIO, whatever is in the first Real Band track plays at like 72,000 decibels no matter which channel I route to in the MOTU.

And the not accepting the "reset to default" was not what I was referring to. What I was referring to was that most replies posted in any forum for any issue start with "reset to factory default" and reboot the computer.

This problem is not like that last one, but I won't go on about it here anymore. I have reset and rebooted enough and nothing helped. PG Support said it was "my setup". Okay, "my setup" worked fine for a 3 hours session just 14 hours before this started. I did not touch a thing, not even the monitor. I went upstairs the next day, moved the mouse to defeat the screen saver, hit play on the same song that was loaded and worked fine 14 hours earlier, and go this memory exception. Nothing on the computer, interface, card, song file, mixer.... nothing at all was touched. The drivers were the same drivers that were loaded when it was working fine. There was no driver update issued by MOTU for the card they quit making in 2009 between point in time A and point in time B.

Do you see why this is so frustrating? I lost a whole night resetting and rebooting to no avail.

The latency and stuttering I won't even discuss because it makes me too angry to run through a 5 minute song and in the 5 seconds the thing burps and I have a hole in my song and have to play it again and hope it doesn't stutter again. No matter where I set the buffers, it continues to happen with no interruption in the CPU whatsoever. I would accept it if I was moving the mouse and causing an IRQ pulse. This is WHY the MOTUs. I don't want to be interrupting the CPU during playback moving the mouse to mix on the screen.
