ASIO Position Protocol sync problem

Post by Mani »

Hi everyone, thanks for looking, here is my setup:

Paris system / propriatary HW with ADAT card (master)
Cubase SX3 using PULSAR II (slave)
Both apps installed in i7 PC , XP pro SP3

Have Cubase set to "ASIO Position Protocol"
Lightpipe send/return connected to Paris and Pulsar
ADAT 9pin sync cable connected to Paris and Pulsar

Problem:
When I hit play in Paris app, Cubase playback starts but after 2-3 seconds jumps forward a little then 3-4 seconds later jumps back a bit and eventualy seems to setle in place after 20 secs or so but not consistent sample accurate.
I have tried tweeking the sync setings in Cubase but still have prob.

Any help I could get would be greatly appreciated.
Also, is Scope 4.5 a free update from V4?
Thanks
Roby

Hi,

my setup is alsoo synced. 2 X Q9550 , each with scopecards and cubase 5.5 linked via cubase VSTsystem link. When the syncsignal chosen for the right connection is mixed with other data through the same lightpipe the sync get unstable and jumps. I do choose one adattrack (24bit only for sync) of the eight adattracks .

grtz

Cant help much with sync prob but 4 to 4.5 isn't free - but you now go from 4.0 to 5.0 for the same price .. This is what I did effectively skipping 4.5.
It was a great deal you might get a load of new stuff depending on what you had before and how many dsp you've got.
