Topic: ADI-2 DAC fs on Big Sur...
Dear friends,
with MacOS Big Sur, any of the latest releases, including the latest 11.3.1, I've often problems with my RME ADI-2 DAC fs.
Machine: Macbook Pro 16 2020 (8-core i9, 32GB RAM)
Connection is via a Benq PD2710QC monitor hub (usb C to usb 3.1).
From time to time:
- while the ADI is used for webex conferences (latest webex client) the normal sound becomes corrupted, croacking (if I switch to Macbook Speakers it turns OK, if then I go back to ADI, always bad).
- often webex starts become very slow and power hungry (if I switch to internal Macbook speakers the problem gets solved), as if coreaudio driver consumes too much cpu.
Always:
- if system Audio Devices / MIDI settings are set for a Output format > 192KHz I always get a "not clean" sound: from time to time the song jumps or gets "tics"/crackilng sounds, for whatever source (Apple Music, Amazon Ultra HD, DSF files, FLAC HD files, etc.).
My installed audio devices are:
BenQ PD2710QC, Headphone, Mikme microphone, ADI-2 DAC (59740228), Brio 4K Stream Edition webcam, Macbook Pro Microphone, Macbook Pro Speakers, MJAudioRecorder, WebexMediaAudioDevice, ZoomAudioDevice.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance
