Pro 2.08 suddenly dropping input signal

Post by paulwi1008 »

I'm running 2.08 on an iBook G4 with OS 10.5. The Mac itself shows that a continuous signal is coming in from my FocusRite Scarlett 2i2. Recording gets off to a good start, but after several minutes, Amadeus suddenly shows no incoming signal. Again, the Sound Control Panel shows a good strong signal.

Audacity accepts the signal perfectly without this input problem.

Hi, do you also experience this problem after updating to 2.1.3?
Regards,

Sorry, please disregard this. I just realised that you are still running on 10.5 while the 2.x versions require at least 10.6… Do you get any error message displayed in the console when this happens?
Regards,

Martin

I don't have much skill reading Console, but it doesn't appear to have any error messages associated with Amadeus.

Would there be a persistent error message in Console after I've quit out of Amadeus, or do I need to check it while Amadeus is running?

The message would appear at the moment the problem occurs. Quite a few things log messages to the console so it might end up drowned in noise not too long after that. Regards,

By the way, any message generated by Amadeus Pro would be in the form of a line actually starting with "Amadeus Pro" in the console. So you can always open the console log in a text editor and just search for all occurrences of "Amadeus Pro". Regards,

Martin

I don't see any error messages showing up at the time of the audio drop. They're random, with not just dropping signal but with the signal suddenly reappearing a few minutes later.

Until this problem is fixed, I'm recording in Audacity and moving the file over to AP for further editing. That raises another question. The Audacity files are 24/88, saved as 24-bit Apple Lossless. When imported into AP, they appear as 16/88. Why not 24/88?

If they are really 24 Bit, they should also appear as such. Could you
send me a Dropbox link to a sample file? Regards,
