I've used it with Ableton and Sonar without a hitch. But as Dan pointed out, it sounds like it's a change on the Mac end of things that made things stop working.amit wrote:Class Compliant as in is its name Suggests is "Compliance"
yes, you can watch all netflix or youtube over that in your kronos without a hitch, thats's what class compliance gives you yet another soundcard.
But Running Low latency/Realtime audio i/o over that is another story and no guarantee.
Audio Dropouts an glitches will occur due to sync problems and as well as could be poor usb clocking(crystals) on the hardware and not just being able to keep up.
There might be some tweaks here and there to get it working to some extent, but Knowing that these issues can come up any time, would you be comfortable using that in a gig or while recording.
From my limited experience, I think its an apple issue, in how Sierra handles audio. As a realist, I am not confident that Apple will address it promptly. With my experience at large cos, it takes some pressure from various significant sources for it to move up on the fixit list.SanderXpander wrote:I've used it with Ableton and Sonar without a hitch.

There may be a clue in there, whenever I've used it I've never used the Kronos internal sounds except maybe a piano when I was checking a song. But basically I used it to play VSTs, not to combine VSTs or playback with Kronos combis.amit wrote:It's great that Korg is on to it.
For me it's always have been very unstable at low latencies (128 samples or below regardless of WASAPI,KS or through asio4all). It works for a while and as soon as you go with a bit heavy combi and on daw side say just omnisphere , it goes south in no time.
If I understand correctly, the specific issue that we're working to address is that Apple has apparently discontinued support for a previously supported USB streaming mechanism, specifically a mechanism for synchronizing data packets. So, not really a bug - just a change in their spec to which we now have to conform!GregC wrote:

Hi Dan, yes, in global/audio mode, my only workable option is to keep all settings in OFF.danatkorg wrote:If I understand correctly, the specific issue that we're working to address is that Apple has apparently discontinued support for a previously supported USB streaming mechanism, specifically a mechanism for synchronizing data packets.

i think we are counting on some type of driver from Korg, to compensate what Apple did to audio over USB.bmtg wrote:Has there been any news on this topic? I'm a new Kronos user and have encountered this audio degradation from both the iPad and MBP.

I don;t have an audio interface. I recall, at least in theory , you avoid the USB audio problem by having a audio interface.ybobo64 wrote:I also have that issue. Did anyone tried to go trough an audio interface instead of going trough out the Mac? Apple said that with the latest update of Sierra they fixed that issue but when i did updated it the problem was still there.
Yes, this is correct. The problem is only with using the Kronos as Audio Out. You can record from the Kronos without problems, but you need to divert Audio Out to either the built-in output of the Mac or to different external audio interface.GregC wrote:I don;t have an audio interface.

I think that discussion is part of another similar topic.
