Hi all,
DigiCheck NG was working just fine until today ... it just quits with no warning of any kind. Any reason ? I work on Mac os 10.14.6 . My Fireface UFX2 drivers & software are up to date.

Will DIGICheck on Mac ever get the option to use playback channels instead of input channels (or loopback) like on PC?

I'd love to be able to use Vector while mixing!

Deleting the File in the /Application Support/RME Digicheck folder solves it until i quit the app & reopen it ... it then quits with no warning ... i must delete this file every time unless ... unless i 1st save a template of DIGICheck & open the app from this .dcws file ... weird behaviour ... it works but needs a workaround for me ...

Thank you

This is great !!!

I noticed the NG version is a CPU eater compared to the old one, at least in a Macbook Pro 2014 i7, NG make the computer hot just in a few minutes, the old Digicheck doesn't load the CPU so heavily.

Well why just not keep the old version, working like a charm instead of the new version v0.85.
Any chance to make the old version compatible with new OS 64bit structure, not really big fan of this new version.
Thank you.

Maybe get yourself a Metal compatible GPU? There are some options for the 2009 Mac Pro.

Well unlike you I have metal but I really dont feel this new digicheck, the old one looks more professional and stable, come guys just make the old version 64 bit compliant with the apple OS, for the moment I dont switch from Mojave.

That is not a bug but intentional. The send bus has 6 dB headrom for multichannel send and not overloading the FX section easily.

It's a preview version, see this sticky: https://forum.rme-audio.de/viewtopic.php?id=30796

We will try. For the time being you could set Phophorescence to Infinity.

DigiCheck NG V 0.86 Beta 2 is now available for download:

http://www.rme-audio.de/downloads/digic … _086b2.zip

The news:

- Universal binary, runs natively on Intel and M1 machines (no Rosetta needed)

- Adds infinite hold option for Spectralyzer

- Includes German / English Online help

- Easier handling when mouse is held pressed on a window frame

- Added Off and -14 dB as Reference Scale to the R128 meters

- All Intersample Peak metering is now done with EBU oversampling, also called True Peak (hence TP with that option) to give matching results when using the EBU test files.

- Global Level Meter is back. While the new Multichannel Meter can do all this as well, Global Level Meter is a bit simpified in not being able to reshuffle channels.

-B 2: Fixed a possible blank state in the Multichannel Level Meter when the audio interface is not available (resets defalt to 8 now)

- Some more under-the-hood improvements.

Enjoy!

Installed new version, with UFX+ Multichannel Meter is completely grayed and I can't select any channel at input selection settings for it(at the same time new Global Level Meter works well):

P.S. Please, please, please, add ability for "Enable Audio Processing" to stay always on: I use separate display for digicheck-ng, keep computer always on, but every day turn on and off UFX+, so after every power cycle of UFX+ I need to go to digicheck-ng and turn on "Enable Audio Processing", manageable, but still quite annoying tbh

Regarding Analyser behavour on M1: please try "open using rosetta" option (just to compare).

No. We also checked that the filters have the same behaviour on Intel and M1. To compare please use a simple 1 kHz sine and check the width of the 'tree' that becomes visible.

I downloaded and installed DIGIcheck 0.73 on my Mac OS 10.15.7 by mistake and it obviously won't work. Want to install DIGIcheck NG .... can I download and install it or do I have to uninstall 0.73 first?

Thank you.

Hi,

I am running Catalina (10.15.7) on an old MacBook Pro from 2010.
Hackintoshed, and thus it has no Metal-Harware...

- v0.73 doesn't work because its 32 bit...
- v0.86b2 shows the "Metal is not supported on this Machine" Splash and quits...

Maybe you could implement an Option whether to use the metal-framework or not, before the App starts?
Or is there any Version which ist 64bit and runs on Catalina without Metal-HW?

Thank you.
cheers, maggie

When Total Mix and DigiCheck NG are maximised side-by-side in Split View it is not possible to change the size assigned to each side of the screen (as soon as you try to change the split size, the applications exit split mode and maximise each on its own desktop). I would like e.g. to be able to give DigiCheck less size than Total Mix.

Otherwise running solid on Big Sur 11.5 / M1 and join in sending encouragement to the RME team working on the issue with playback/output metering.

Thanks and cheers

You'll need to setup Loopback on the desired outputs (I don't believe you can do it with playback channels)--instructions are in the manual.

Yes, please, I would like that too.

Hello. Recently I noticed I get what looks like a signal in the Spectral Analyzer screen. If I restart Digicheck NG it goes away and slowly returns. The Spectral Analyzer inputs is set for Analog 1&2. As you can see from Total Mix there is no signal. Also, I'm not really sure how I got .86 beta 2?

I will try that MC. Thanks!

I guess using shared albums in Mac photos is not a good way to share screenshots online as I see apple must have changed the link. What do you guys use to post photos? Back in the day I used to have my own domain.

Takeoff just happened - version 0.87 is now available on our website, and even comes with an installer! This version includes many small fixes and improvements under the hood, and adds the Bit Stat instrument.

Thanks for the new release! Glad that the new bitmeter has been implemented!

But on macOS Monterey on Apple M1 the bits are always changing (green), when processing is enabled, even if the channel has no signal (UFL):

The bits are only set to zero when processing is disabled, so there is no difference between 16 bit and 24 bit signals if processing is active. Is this a core audio issue?

I would like to be able to analyse loopback signal on ADAT for bit depth to check 16 bit dithering or be able to check if resampling at 16 bit signals takes place.
