Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

Yes, please. Also the current state file of TM FX might be useful, as I expect this to be the issue. It is in user/Library/Application Support/RME TotalMix FX (hold down Option key to find this library in the Finder's Go menu), and will have a name like last.FirefaceUCXIIxxxxxxxx.xml. After archiving it you could delete it there, TM FX will most probably start again.

I got it working, uninstalled totalmix, restored previous version, then installed version 3.31 over it.

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

Ok, I was too positive, it now starts but crashes after 1 minute sad

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

Forum user Data has send us the full Crash Report, and already confirmed a fix in a test version that we sent. There is something really strange going on with graphics memory, and not everyone is affected (of course all our Macs work).

But it seems that for those affected we can provide a fixed version tomorrow.

EDIT: as darkinners pointed out below, kernel and driverkit links were just flipped.
The correct installer worked ok.

Was there a guide somewhere on how to remove the driverkit driver (without installing a newer one).

Hey MC,

On Win 10 latest updates and all that.

Flashed firmware on my UCX II turn it off and on again, and then install latest drivers(Run as Admin.), but no sound source in sound, I can't get sound to work now. In device manager everything is fine. USB is connected. Help...

Is the UFX+ Mac TB driver description reversed?

I guess it should be
1.05 DriverKit
1.24 Kernel Extension?

Ah, yes that was it. Good catch!

And thanks to RME for the update! Seems great!

Out of interest. Can we assume that the output delay time cannot be extended further, even with less channels activated, and that this will not change in the future?

I was able to update from 3.28B to 3.31 Kernel Extension, updated firmware, and 1.93 TotalMix FX for my UFX III on Ventura 13.6.3, and all seems to be working well.

Is there documentation for the new Safety Offset?

New manuals will be up soon. The Safety Offset is decribed a such:

Short Safety Offset
Allows the audio subsystem to be adapted to the computer performance. Short reduces the latency due to a smaller safety offset, but can lead to clicks or dropouts. The kernel extension driver also has the Large option for maximum security against such effects.

Thanks, Ramses. It was indeed not planned this way because originally we thought newer features like Remap Keys and DURec track names can not be added to the older units. But we found a way to do so.

The result is that the manuals now become nearly identical, as UFX III, UFX II and UFX+ have exactly the same feature set, apart from the hardware differences. So current UFX II is now really UFX III without USB 3 and MADI, no other difference. UFX+ is UFX III plus TB, but on an older hardware state (digital and analog board).

IMHO that is a big update in value for the older units.

To recap: there was an issue with 180% Zoom on Retina Macs. TM FX Windows was not affected.

TM FX 1.93(3) for Mac is now available via the link in the first post, and fixes the issue. Mac USB and TB drivers now downloaded are already updated and come with 1.93(3).

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

I can confirm that everything works as intended now (UCX II). Crossfeed and Room EQ is amazing! I use it with headphones and can now uninstall Sonarworks :-)

For use with headphones the naming as "Room EQ" might be a bit misleading. Maybe "Corrective EQ", "Speaker Calibration" or something like that would be better?

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

By the way did a quick RTL test on the 3.31 Kernel Extension driver new
safety offset settings

Roundtrip latency on UFX+ with USB3 connection.
(Macbook Pro 14" M1Max)
@48khz 64 samples

Short: 4.104ms
Normal: 4.604ms
Large: 6.604ms

So, the new "Large" seem to add 2ms latency to prevent the click and drop.

One interesting note, I also tested the new 1.05 DriverKit TB driver.
The 48kHz 64samples measured 4.604ms
Which is the same as USB3 connection with safety offset set to "Normal"
I remember a few years back (I forgot which driver version) when using TB connection, it did measure less roundtrip latency than USB3 under the same sample buffer setting (the difference was unperceivable in practice but lower latency nonetheless)
I wonder did RME increased the safety buffer on TB driver as well?

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

Interesting, will these new safety offset settings come to the HDSPe cards as well?

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

I've just updated my UFX+, If I open my Digicheck it'll shut down immediately and Digicheck NG shows Not Assigned under Audio Device Setup.

I'm using Windows 10 and connected via USB.

Is this a known bug or just for me?

33

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

That is a known effect when updating older drivers to the latest. It works but ASIO does not. Cold reboot usually helps, switching the UFX+ off/on might help as well, as installing the latest driver a second time.

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

Is there any way to increase filter slope (aside of stacking two bands)?
as far as i can tell, filter is 12db/8ve and stacking two with identical settings would theoretically make it a 24dB? (which is what graph sort of shows) - and i assume (by the visual shape) that this is more akin to a Linkwitz Riley filter now (Which is what i want)

If i am mistaken, what Q settings would make it as close as possible to a 4th order Linkwitz riley crossover?
I assume 0.7 on both ends would result in a typical LR, or is it more like the butterworth 3dB bump?

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

Hi there,

first of all thanks for keeping up with the updates and improvements!

Now, just two noob questions:

1. Concerning the "Added independent use of AES, ADAT1 and ADAT2 as 3-way AES/SPDIF I/O." could anyone please explain what this means in practical terms and give an example of how it can be used? I currently have a UFXII with a Kemper connected via AES/SPDIF and two Behringer 8 channel ADAT extensions...

2. I mostly use my RME interfaces for recording and have no previous experience in using eq for room correction / surround sound setups. Still it's something that seems really interesting and useful. Would anybody, or perhaps even RME themselves, be willing to do a tutorial on how to use this feature. So, how measure a room's acoustics and then, a walkthrough to learn how to use Totalmix to fix any problems. I've already seen the Mathias' video on the RME Youtube channel but that seems to be more about how the UI works.... I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who would love to gain some additional insights! smile

All the best!

David

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

Thank you for bringing this update to the UCX II !
I can report that DK 4.10/TMFX 1.93 (3) run smoothly on Sonoma 14.2.1 (MBP M2 pro), even through a heavy stress test that I did.

Quick question:
As noted in the original post, the settings of the Room EQ are saved within a workspace, but I noticed that the Crossfeed setting isn't saved with it (or in a snapshot). Is this by design? or is there a way to save it and I'm missing something?

In the past
- AES, ADAT1 and ADAT2 were only fully independent I/O ports when ADAT2 has been set to ADAT format
- only ADAT2 could be set to SPDIF format (optical SPDIF)

Now they are completely separate ports, and you can set ADAT1 or ADAT2 to SPDIF format as you like, fully independent of each other and the AES port.

Running the UCX II with a Mac Studio M2, Kernel driver.. This update is absolutely amazing!! Huge thanks!!!

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

Been using the Room EQ plus the 3 band EQ for a few days now. Can already say that Sonarworks is not going to be used anymore. Get so tremendously good results with this. Measured the studio with REW in combination with TM room EQ. Everything pretty flat freq now. Without sounding dull. (3-way monitors with a sub).

Thanks for the update!

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

So far so good in CC- / stand-alone mode (because of Linux), everything seems fine and a -huge- thanks for having UCX II included!

Crossfeed indeed very cool, am a bit surprised I get room EQ on HP outs too. Does this mean if I'd get 10th band I could do HP linearising by using oratory1990's presets as-is, otherwise I have to either adapt the curve for 9 bands, or take their ADI-2 presets and use only 7 bands?

One little glitch regarding the 6 presets available in CC-/stand-alone mode - I had to load & store each one again, in order to get loading presets using remapped keys actually change the Crossfeed and RoomEQ settings. Otherwise they were ignored, not even taking default values.

42

Re: Room EQ, Crossfeed, Triple SPDIF - UFX+, UFX II, UFX III, UCX II

You can use the 3-band PEQ to have 12 bands in total.

What do you mean with 'I had to load & store each one again' exactly?

Trying to a explain it a bit different than Ramses:

Before, using ADAT2 as SPDIF was using the AES I/O, so AES In was dead, and AES Out had the same signal as ADAT2 Out. So basically a single AES/SPDIF I/O.

Now AES, ADAT1 and ADAT2 work independently, so you have a triple AES/SPDIF I/O instead of only one. The old way of working is still available by choosing AES for ADAT2 Output.

What do you mean with 'I had to load & store each one again' exactly?

After the update, manipulate the new settings (Crossfeed and REQ), then load presets which were saved before the update - they won't revert CF/REQ settings to their default values. After a preset gets stored, then loading it starts to change CF/REQ too. Can be seen rather as undocumented feature and not a bug, as it occurs only once per preset, until its saved. Hence I needed to load & store each preset once, in order to prevent them all from ignoring CF/REQ settings.

Please use the correct naming - you talk about Setups (aka device-based workspaces), not Presets (aka PEQ Preset or Room EQ Preset). For these Setups the behaviour that you saw is intentional. A Setup that does not include REQ data will not set existing REQ data to zero. Instead the CF/REQ values stay unchanged.

And once the old stuff is gone everything works seamlessly smile

Speaking of naming, renaming channels is quite slow and inefficient in TMFX compared to a DAW. In my DAW, I can type the name of the first channel, then press TAB to go to the next channel, where I can type the name, then TAB again.

Can you please implement this feature in the next version of TMFX? It would save so much time during sessions.
Thank you, Matthias & co!

maybe also for RME Connector where you only jump to the next parameter in the channel.
