Noise! — Media Composer and Duet Firewire
Using Apogee Duet Firewire with Media Composer 6.0.0 on a MacPro with 10.7.5.
Getting static/noise during playback. I tried updating the Duet, but still have noise. Any ideas? THANK YOU. -

Same noise in Pro Tools, Audition, or whatever?

No noise when using other programs like iTunes. Also no noise when booting from another partition and using Avid Pro Tools — OS 10.6.8, Pro Tools 10.0.0.

I would update to the latest patch for MC if you are really on 6.0.0. I know Symphony, which the same code base, improved significantly betweeon 6.0 and 6.0.2 .
Strange issue. You talk to Apogee?
Good Luck,

I upgraded to 6.0.3 but still have the issue.
I emailed Apogee and am waiting for a response.
I read an old post about Avid and audio hardware that did not give a solution but mentioned an issue with Avid and anything connected to the same Firewire bus… -
Found a “fix!” In Preferences>Audio, I reduced the “Play Buffer Size in Samples” and the “Tool Buffer Size in Samples.” Audio now played back clean. Interestingly, when I increased these values back to the original settings (2048), the audio was still clean. And I have restarted Media Composer a few times, and audio through the Duet sounds fine, even with original audio settings. BUG!
