"Error while trying to sync Audio and Midi"

"Error while trying to sync Audio and Midi" I have been having this problem now and then for some time. Now, I can't run any audio files without a lot of popping. I tried all the suggestions on the support document for this issue. I even downloaded new drivers from Motu for my Express XT Midi interface and my 828MK11 Audio interface. There has been no change. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!!!
Also, I have tried reseting the 828 to factory default and that does not help.

Hi,
I solved my own problem by resetting the factory presets:
Follow these steps to restore the MOTU 828mkII to Factory Default Settings.
Disconnect the firewire cable from the 828mkII
Press the Setup knob
Turn the Setup knob all the way to the right
Press the Select knob
Press the Value knob
Power off the interface and plug the firewire cable back in
Power the interface back on
The same steps can be followed to restore the Factory Default Settings on a Traveler.

Error while trying to sync audio and MIDI, sample rate 39100 recognised??

When I press record a message appears saying 'error while trying to syncronise audio and MIDI, sample rate 39100 recognised. Check conflict between garage band and external device. I'm using a Behringer UMC-202 interface. The inputs are selected as the device but no audio is present either.

Just click the icon on each track that stops it acting as a live input. It looks like a sound wave. Only have them clicked orange when using the track to record! I don't know if that will solve your problem!

In Logic Pro 9.8.1 I get an "error while trying to sync Audio and MIDI"

I am using a MAC OS X 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
and memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3.
I am going thru an Apogee Ensemble
and 2 other external units, an MCU Pro Universal Control surface
and an Axiom 25.
The problem is this was working fine and now I cannot
get audio. The signals are there when I load a Logic project,
just no actual audio.

Sounds like the MOTU828 needs a reset, the problems you describe can almost always be fixed by a reset.
-Unplug the firewire
-press the button "setup", turn full right until
"factory default"
- push select
- confirm with "value"
- plug back firewire

Pop up saying error while trying to sync audi and midi

HELP! is there anyone who is experiencing or has experienced an error pop up saying error while trying to sync audio and midi in your logic pro8? it's doing it on every song I pull up now. I've tried buffering, reloading, Help? all was fine the night before.
Sincere, The Silver Conductor

Check the clock source on your audio interface if you're using one. It should be set to internal. What's your setup?

"Error While Trying To Synchronise Audio And Midi"...non-tempo event found

"Error While Trying To Synchronise Audio And Midi"...non-tempo event found
now when I shutdown Logic And relaunch the Project, the notes hang and "WHAT THE FRIIGIN"
(this was a bug way back when Logic7 was first released)
this is bad!
SvK

Thanks Steven.
big help. In our session we keep getting this problem where the song counter stops, the music keeps playing and we get an error message saying:
Non Tempo-Event found in Sync Reference
We looked in the tempo list and somehow there was a tempo event of 0.00 tempo in there.
We deleted it, got the same error message, but the prob seems to be fixed.
Apple, please fix this!
Thanks

"error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI"

Hello All,
Just got Logic 8... installed (as upgrade from 7)
I keep (consistantly) getting this:
"error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI" when in play or record mode... has anyone any ideas regarding a 'fix' or maybe even to point out stupidity on my part re settings; I'm open to comments here and would obviously love to get this fixed/sorted out.
System is basically: G5 Dual 1.8/OS 10.4.10/MOTU 828 Mk2
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I first did what the manual was telling me but that made no difference as the sync would drop within 5 to 15 bars... very frustrating.
Since my original posting I have spoken with MOTU regarding this Audio/MIDI sync problem. There is evidently a simple reset that needs to be done (that is if like me you are using a MOTU 828 Mk2 interface), you have to toggle through both digital input and output settings in the Audio Control Panel. The problem then goes away.
I hope that is helpful. I think that this probably is relevant to all MOTU interfaces, or is at least worth trying if you are having this problem... maybe other manufacturers too... ?
Cheers, Kick

Error while trying to synchronize audio and MIDI. Sample rate 42804 recognized. Check conflict between Garageband and external device.

Sometimes, while playing back my software instrument songs, I get an intermittent pop-up error message, saying "Error while trying to synchronize audio and MIDI. Sample rate 42804 recognized. Check conflict between Garageband and external device."
(Sometimes the five digit number is different, but remains a five-digit number beginning with "4".)
Simultaneously, the song stops until I press the "Okay" button in the pop-up window.
When I continue to play the song, the sound is jerky and clipped, and the playhead doesn't keep up with the song, and then suddenly jumps to the part of the song currently being played.
There's also a sound of static.
The issue seems to occur whether or not I have my MIDI controller turned on and plugged into my desktop Imac.

Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI. plz help i cant hear anything

plz help me i cant hear nothing and its says: Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI.
Sample Rate 38536 recognized.
Check conflict between Logic Pro X and external device. ???????? PLZ HELP

It means you are overtaxing the CPU, likely with just one (3rd party-)software instrument plugin. Ignore the word "external", in this context it often means "3rd party plugin".
So what synth is it? Since you're Dutch, it's probably one of the trancy dancy synths, such as Albino, Diva, Sylenth or Massive... I could be wrong though...
The best way to avoid this message is to Freeze the track with the guilty synner - however, a frozen track cannot be edited, so if that is a problem, you will have to make the synth itself run lighter, which can be achieved by turning of internal effects that are ON the synth itself, especially reverb.

Error while trying to synchronise audio and midi

Hi
Logic worked all day and suddenly start giving this message:
error while trying to synchronise audio and midi.
Nothing was changed and we also have no sound.
We don't have any midi device, its just the G5 and Logic installed.
Any idea how to solve this issue.

Someone else has been having this problem and I've tried to help 'cos it used to happen to me too. Try adjusting your I/O buffer level in your Logic Audio Driver preferences - raise it a bit higher and the problem should go away. Problem is you get more latency. (I'm assuming it's set lower than 512, but not knowing your audio hardware... and your not using internal audio are you???)

Error while trying to sync audio and video.

Suddenly out of the blue I'm have all sorts of problems with Logic 8. I keep getting the "error while trying to synchronize audio and midi" error message. Even when I'm just using using the audio side. Do you know of a local logic tech that could check out my system? Might be a problem with my motu 828mk11 audio interface or corrupt drivers, bad preferences. I'm unable to do any work in Logic until I get this problem solved.

(Did you do any upgrades with the Firewire plugged in?)
Usually a MOTU reset will fix this.
Follow these steps to restore the 828mkII to Factory Default Settings.
•Disconnect the firewire cable from the 828mkII
•Press the Setup knob
•Turn the Setup knob all the way to the right
•Press the Select knob
•Press the Value knob
•Power off the interface and plug the firewire cable back in
•Power the interface back on
http://www.motu.com/techsupport/technotes/document.2004-06-16.6405589976/view
If that doesn't work.
1) Unplug ALL cables from the 828MkII.
2) Double check that the power cord is really unplugged.
3. Switch the voltage switch on the side from your setting (110 in the US) to the other setting and back a few times.
4) Make sure you've set the voltage switch back to the right setting for your country.
5) Plug everything back in.

How to solve: Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI.

The project consists of an hour long DVD of a play which I have loaded into Logic ( on a MacbookPro) and stripped the audio
and cut it up into regions to name the different parts of the play ( verse/music etc)
Usually I am able to play the project with a small window showing the Movie and watching the audio in the back ground adding markers and notes.
Most of the time this works fine.. but then I get the following message re-occurring every few seconds:
"Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI.
Sample Rate 26848 recognized.
Check conflict between Logic Pro and external device"
There is no MIDI, there is no external device, the Sample Rate is the usual 44.1
Can anyone explain how to stop getting this error message which keeps interrupting workflow?

LogicPro 8 "Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI"

Hello,
My rig: Dual 2.5 GHz PowerPC G5 3.5 GB DDR SDRAM. OS X 10.4.11. Logic Pro 8.0.2, Motu 828mkII interface, emagic Unitor 8 midi interface, Makie Control Universal, 7200rpm Firewire 800 Hard drives.
I Just launched a Logic Pro 8 session that was started a few days ago and when I click "Play" there is no audio from the recorded tracks coming through the speakers. All that comes through the speakers is a series of hi pitched (roughly 4k to 6k) beeps and then an error message: "Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI". I've tried restarting everything and still get the same results. I tried switching audio device to "built-in audio" instead of the motu and that works fine, (the tracks play back correctly).
I've also tried other sessions that have different sample resolutions and bit depth and I also tried reseting all midi drivers.
All sessions produced the same results, "Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI", and played correctly when using built-in audio device. It's looking like the problem is with the motu.
How can I trouble shoot this?

Sounds like the MKII needs a reset.
You can reset the 828 MkII to default settings in the following way (as provided from the MOTU support page):
Follow these steps to restore the 828mkII to Factory Default Settings.
Disconnect the firewire cable from the 828mkII
Press the Setup knob
Turn the Setup knob all the way to the right
Press the Select knob
Press the Value knob
Power off the interface and plug the firewire cable back in
Power the interface back on

Solution for "Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI" and "System Overload" messages

Article for those who hate Logic error windows
Seen in Logic Pro 9.1.7 on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4
and Logic Pro 9.0.0 on Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.5
Logic Pro:
System Overload.
The audio engine was not able to process all required data in time.
(-10011)
Error while trying to synchronize Audio and MIDI.
Sample Rate xxxxx recognized.
Check conflict between Logic Pro and external device.
The search in the help given as follows: overload occurs when you use a lot of tracks and a lot of effects on them, and the synchronization is lost when the selected MIDI track for recording or playback. Yes, this is all that is written in the resources. And here are useful tips that have been found:
The Bounce function allows the entire instrument track to be recorded as an audio file. This bounced audio file can then be used (as an audio region) on a standard audio track, allowing you to reassign the available processing power for further software instrument tracks. For more details, see "Bouncing Your Project."
You can also make use of the Freeze function to capture the output of a software instrument track, again saving processing power. For details, see "Freezing Tracks in the Arrange Area."
These tips - about the timing. About overload - there are no tips, except as "reducing the number of plug-ins" and "increasing latency". Zero useful tips - I got two errors in the test project with a blank audio track with no effects, MIDI drums and standard synthesizer, it was no aux buses, and the entire project was only a single plugin in the master track.
Here is the configuration of my computer:
iMac12, 2
CPU: Intel Core i5 3,1 GHz
Memory: 4 GB
And here's a project that almost immediately stops Logic, all instruments and plug-ins with the init-patch, ie not the most demanding settings:
It's sad.
When this happened the first time, I could start the project only if the empty audio track has been selected, a track specially designed so that you can at least start the project. Then, this problem has evaporated along with the changing conditions of work and I forgot about it until the last case.
I was looking for the cause of the problem in the console and the system monitor for two days, and finally I found that Logic ping to the network frequently. I remembered the exact time of occurrence of the problem, and system logs revealed that the problems began immediately, as soon as I deactivate the service of the Internet.
Solution: enable the Internet, or add a new network service on a computer with no Internet. I just created the Ethernet connection to the ip address 1.0.0.0
Logic immediately began to sing.

Hi gabaghoul
Yes, it worked for me on four different OS and Logic versions (10.6 - 10.8 and 9.0 - 9.1.6)
It does not work in some cases, hard enough to tell in which one, but you can try, it very easy: go to the net settings and create new Ethernet connection to the ip address 1.0.0.0 and connect LAN cable to the port.
Also you can try to figure out what happens in your system while Logic error occured - fot that you just start Console and search "logicpro"
Pay attention to repetitive events in a console and events with suitable timing, not so far from error
The problem may be related to the GUI or system memory, sometimes turning off Safari (or Chrome, others browsers) might help.
