Audio 2 DJ + Traktor 2 2v5 + new MBP 10.7.4 = fail.
Audio 2 DJ + Traktor 2 2v5 + new MBP 10.7.4 = fail. Posted on: 11.07.2012 by Enid Redgrave Hi guys,Im going mental. Ive been trying for about 8 hours to get my NI A2D and macbook to like each other, but it's been going nowhere. So: I downloaded the latest driver of the NI site, MBP does recognise A2D (both in Finder as well as in Traktor), but the sound it puts through to my speakers is the worst white noise/crushing sound ive ever heard. Skrillex can learn from it. Songs get recognisable when i change the sample rate to 88200 Hz, all other frequencies result in the crushnoise. NI USB Audio interface tells me its driver version 2.4.23, lots of USB streaming errors, firmware revision 2. Card works fine on Windows Vista, so its not broken. What oh what could it be? | |

| Nedra Fresneda 13.07.2012 | You restore the backed up file and restart your system. |
| King Kunzmann 12.07.2012 | how do you get it back to 3.0 afterwards, say if you want to transfer music from your USB3 capable hard drive to your laptop without using the now-slow usb connection |
| Nedra Fresneda 11.07.2012 | Glad you got it working mate |

| Enid Redgrave 11.07.2012 | So you guys believe this could help me out, even though i have an audio 2? (im a total beginner with mac) |
| King Kunzmann 11.07.2012 | No dice, tried it myself with both regular & powered USB hubs. I called NI and they said it has to do with the chips in the sound cards -- there are different chips in different ones. People are saying that the audio 6 and 10 both work on USB 3, while the audio 2, 4, and 8 do not work -- this is consistent with the fact that NI switched chip companies for the 6 and the 10. the 6 you can get for $230, but I myself haven't been able to get my hands on one to test, although other people say that it's working. |

| King Kunzmann 11.07.2012 | the problem you're experiencing is this: your audio 2 DJ is not compatible with USB 3.0 ports, which are what is on the new macbook pros & airs. There is, unfortunately, no way for you to get this to work. Your audio 2 will work on the last generations of macbooks but as the new generation is using USB 3.0 ports exclusively, you're out of luck. sorry man |
| Enid Redgrave 11.07.2012 | recognisable means i can make out what song it is, but its all chopped up, sort of like a very strong slicer effect. |
