Unstable timeline movement using FireWire audio (MOTU 828mk3)

I'm using a 32 bit system with Windows 7 Home Premium and Service Pack 1. An AVI that I captured with my DV camera will not play in Premiere Elements. I can see the time line making a loop every 10 seconds or less whenever I use FireWire for audio. If I use Windows Sound Card, it plays well.
The same AVI plays well on Windows Media Player with or without the FireWire audio interface.
I'm new to Adobe but have used AVID Liquid Pro before. It seems like I'm missing a CODEC but I'm not sure if that is the problem. NOTHING plays right with the FireWire Audio selected regardless of the many settings I have tried.
Thanks,
Joseph Balsamo

I'm using Premiere Elements 12.
The 828mk3 is a FireWire audio interface. I'm actually using IEEE 1384 connection vs USB. I use it for my audio (PC to mixing board) mostly for Sonar.
I found out today during a chat with Adobe that Premiere Elements does not support MOTU. That must be my problem.
I am not trying to capture, just play an AVI in the timeline. The timeline does not move smoothly enough to do that without audio and video problems. However, the same AVI will play in the organizer of Premiere Elements. Also the same AVI also plays in Media Player. I also have no problems with audio or video using YouTube or Vimeo or any video on the web with Chrome or IE 11.
I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit with Service Pack 1.
828mk3 Hybrid Firewire Audio Interface
I am told that Premiere Pro can support MOTU. I just don't have a 64 bit system for it yet.
Thanks,

    Just curious as to why it's coming up as a copyright violation?
    Hard to say.  I think FaceBook errs on the side of abundance caution when they detect anything that sounds like music.
    It's also possible to that people use samples of various pieces of iLife audio contest to create a piece of work that they then copyright.

  • Mush/Audio Errors with MacMini (2012) connected via Firewire with Motu 828mk3

    Hi,
    just bought a Mac Mini (actual model) and wanted to connect my Motu 828 mk3 via Firewire for audio recording. BUT, via FW there are audio errors/mush (sounds like electrical mush) in all the audio outputs. Via USB its all o.k. ! The Motu works fine with an 2008 MacBook Pro on Firewire!
    Has anyone the same problem with audio interfaces on macs using firewire, especially on the actual Mac mini? Is it a problem of the Mac (Mini) Firewire port?
    The Mac Mini has installed the latest Motu drivers and the latest version of OS X Lion. The problem exists in all audio applications (Cubase, AudioDesk, Wavelab, even iTunes).
    Thanks for your help/answers and best regards.

    The problem stems from the Mac (in my case Mac Mini Server 2011).
    Apparently, as I read in various forums looking for Mac and Logic, the new models of Mac Mini (2011) have lowered the voltage Firewire.
    I have the same problem with my new Track-16.
    I can only work fine with USB connection.
    Either we change the computer model, or users of Mac Mini (2011) we can forget a Firewire connection powerful and efficient.
    Only remains for me try to connect to an external HD Motu firewire 800 which is connected to the Mac Mini previously. I guess the external HD, to be powered via AC, will have enough voltage to the Motu.
    Best regards.

    first download the macintel drivers from motu, install them ,then reset your motu, that should do the trick.

  • Nothing but line in/out trying to use firewire audio interface

    Hi all, hoping someone can help me out here. I just got and am trying to use a Behringer FAC202 firewire audio interface. It's documentation says all I have to do is plug it in and OS X is supposed to recognize it. Well it doesn't. I have no core audio control panel, and in the sound control panel all I have is the default line in/out for internal audio (I do have system sound through the built in sound card)
    Anyone have an idea why the firewire device isn't showing up? I did check the firewire bus and I see:
    Unknown Device:
    Manufacturer: Unknown
    Model: Unknown Device
    Maximum Speed: Up to 400 Mb/sec
    Connection Speed: Up to 400 Mb/sec
    The FAC202 is the only firewire device on the system.
    Any help would be most appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for your reply Jean,
    I did try that and saw no luck there either, but it actually turns out that the unit may well be defective. I tried it on several macs of various makes, as well as a couple of PCs and no joy all around, so I'm sending it back for replacement.
    Thanks again for your reply.

  • Using Firewire Audio Interfaces w/ GB3

    Hey all,
    Thinking of picking up a firewire audio interface for a few live performances my band and I are doing...I'm thinking of picking up an Alesis iO|14 or iO|26 and using my macbook for it. I'm curious on a few things...in garageband, will each intsrument have it's own track in GB? Also, what are some realistic file sizes for 3-4 minute songs with 4-5 individual tracks?
    Thanks, and all the best,
    Jared

    will each intsrument have it's own track in GB?
    yes
    http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/GBFAQ.html#maxnumrecordabletracks
    what are some realistic file sizes for 3-4 minute songs with 4-5 individual tracks?
    GB records uncompressed audio which takes up about 10MB/minute/track

  • MacBook with 10.6.2 drops audio when using firewire audio interface

    Hi there!
    I've got a problem that's getting a pretty big issue right now.
    It started when I first plugged in my newly bought Alesis Multimix 8 FireWire, at the moment running 10.5. After a while, the audio suddenly was gone, there was nothing. Unplugging and replugging the interface solved the problem, but it happened again, and again and again. I could also change the sample rate and the audio would come back. I hoped it was an issue with Leopard, so upgraded to Snow Leopard, but the problem is still there.
    At the moment I'm in the band for a musical, and it requiers a lot of different sounds, and I'm happy I found MainStage in the same box as Logic! Though with this audio dropout problem, it can't be a success. I borrowed a TC Electronic 24D from a friend hoping all troubles would be gone, but no, it's still there.
    Now, I can't figure out where the problem exist. Is the two different sound cards both failing? Is the MacBook hardware failing? Is OS X failing?
    I tried with different FW cables, but it didn't help. Could there be some bad stuff left from Leopard when I upgraded, I didn't do a clean install?

    I have a hard time believing it could be just OS X that's messing with us. If the problem came already in 10.5.3, following my logic, the bug should be gone by now.
    As you said, the easy fix is to use the built in headphone port, but in my case it doesn't work that good since there's some whining noise making itself clear when you amplify the signal.
    I've read somewhere that people have had success not plugging the interface directly to the Mac, but through a firewire hub of some kind, like an external harddrive. I will try that tomorrow.

  • HT3956 I have tried to connect three MOTU 828mk3's using this new aggregate device listed here, but it wont work any suggestions?

    Hi
    I am trying to use three 828mk3's with an analouge desk and after creating a new aggregate device in Audio/midi set up it doesn't seem to work, also the blue shaded are doesn't allow me to move the volume up or down?
    Any suggetions?
    Thanks

    Hi
    The situation is like this, we have ordered 3 motu 828mk3 AI's to replace old avid hardware. We have a 24 track analogue BIG desk made by langley. The issue is that Logic 9 and Pro tools 10 don't want to use all the sound cards together, if we change the playback engine to MOTU 2 then we can use channels 9-16, then the 3rd one for channels 17-24 etc. Looking around at forums and other sites as lead me to set up a new aggregate device in the audio/midi set up in utilities. Again after we tried this it still doesn't allow us to use all three together. Motu state that you can daisy chain up to 4 devices, i have sent an email to MOTU but have yet to gain a response.

  • Audio interface problem with Waveburner...wil not send audio to MoTU 828mk3

    When using Waveburner with a new MOTU 828Mk3 interface. the audio refuses to play via the 828 despite it being selected in the Audio Device window. It defaults to sending audio to my second display screen. Is there a re-set somewhere? It works fine with Logic9.

    Hi,
    You need to select the MOtu 828mk3 as your default audio device under the Mac Os "Audio Midi Setup" application, and the "sound" preference pane in Preferences.
    Cheers

  • MOTU 828Mk3 & Logic Pro's default audio outputs

    Hello people! Well, I received my MOTU 828Mk3 a couple of days ago and am very pleased with it so far, sonically much better than the Mk2 however I'm slightly frustrated with the default audio out in logic pro. The 828 is set-up fine with the default audio out set to master out, itunes etc all work fine but within logic pro the default output is analog 1-2, the master outputs are 9-10. So every-time I create a new project I have to select 9-10 as the output, I can live with that but if you drag any samples/loops into a project the output of the new track defaults to analog 1-2, bit of a pain. So my question is - Is there any way you can tell logic to use a default pair of outputs?
    Cheers
    Paul

    You should be able to set the main outputs to be 1 and 2 in the MOTU setup app. I've done that with my 896mk3 and it works as expected. It just means that the outputs 1-8 on the unit are actually 3-10 in Logic.

  • Unable to import FCE movie captured using firewire

    We are using firewire output from Sony 2100 camera and cpturing it using Final Cut Express, however when using Final Cut Pro X to import the movie,
    FCP X crashes.  Tried many options on the import menu, however are resulted in the same thing, crash.
    Removing the audio from the movie FCP X accepted the movie with no problem.  If Final Cut Express can import the same movie with no problem way
    can't the new Final Cut Pro X do the same.  We need help, Thanks.

    Can you open the file in QuickTime Player?
    If so, click Window/Inspector, and tell us what video and audio codecs are listed by "format:".
    If the audio and video formats look ok, then I would check for chapter tracks, closed captioning tracks, etc. Extra tracks would make the movie uneditable in iMovie.

  • I am getting no signal to my dj mixer using m-audio firewire audiophile sound card connected to my mac book pro using Traktor Dj software can anyone help?

    I am getting no signal to my dj mixer using m-audio firewire audiophile sound card connected to my mac book pro using Traktor Dj software can anyone help?
    The firewire port reads the dj software and I can hear music playing through the sound card when I plug my headphones into it but there is no signal to the hardware (my dj mixer).
    I have reset the firewire by turning off my mac book pro for a few hours and can see the sound card device in the fire wire section after clicking on the apple icon on the top left corner of my mac.
    My dj mixer works on another mac computer with the same soundcard and different firewire cable.
    Hope someone can help
    Thanks
    Wayne

    kmiddlet88,
    yes, it could be due to nearly anything listed in your kernel extensions, startup items, launch daemons, launch agents, or user items above. Please check all of your installed third-party software to make sure that the versions which are installed on your MacBook Pro are compatible with Mavericks; uninstall every software package which isn’t Mavericks-compatible. After you’ve done that, boot into Safe mode, and see if you still get the beach ball of doom there. If it doesn’t appear there, restart normally and see if it appears then.

  • Mainstage 2 on motu 828mk3 unstable

    Unfortunately mainstage 2 on snowleopard with motu 828mk3 is very unstable.
    (I fully clean install snowleopard and logic studio after the trouble but have no luck.)
    cursol is heavy from time to time and after midi contorol via amt8 it stops to sound and only way to do is to switch off 828mk3 and restart.
    Is anyone have same problem?

    Mhhh ...... Could be the MOTU.
    I have the same setup, and SOMETIMES suddenly have BIG latency problems (e.g. EVP88)..
    Hitting panic or just waiting (up to 5 seconds) works.
    Dont have another interface to check if the MOTU could be the cause.
    I set up my concert from scratch, after finding out that my imported MS1 concert didnt perform at all.
    So i guess i am clean, and yes .. i know how MS works.
    Do you have big CPU spikes as well ?
    Going back to MS1, I'm afraid.

  • Converting Videos Using Movie ToGo/No Audio

    Have a movie that plays in Qicktime and itunes but it won't transfer to new video iPod. I am using a Mac with 10.4.3. I ran to movie using the Digigami MovieToGo converter. Video converted fine but has no audio. I did "Get Info" on the movie file and see it is formatted as a MPEG1 Muxed. It seems this converter (for the Mac) can not convert a movie with both video & audio with a Muxed format. Any ideas for a converter that can indeed handle a Muxed format.

    David search then ask (and after you search you won't need to ask) there are enough references to several programs here to choke a horse.

  • I would like to use FireWire to move files between 2 iBook G3's.

    I would like to use FireWire to move files between 2 iBook G3's but the disk icon for the target disk computer does not show on the other. I've tried using 3 different iBooks and 2 different Firewire cables. Are there any other settings I should use?  Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Mike

    Check the settings in the General tab of the Finder's preferences, and whether or not the drive appears in the Disk Utility.
