Arps Arpeggiator out of Sync with Virus, Focusrite Saffire Pro, Behringer ADA 8200 and Cubase - The Fix

  • I struggled with this for hours - if you're having this problem allow me to enlighten you.


    1) Set your Behringer to 44.1k clock, not 48 - The whole setup does not play nicely with 48khz!

    2) Set your Saffire Pro to the same in Saffire MixControl

    3) In Cubase Audio Device setup ensure your Clock Source is set to ADAT

    4) On your virus in CONFIG ensure that Audio clock source is set to AUTO - if you see the option to select 44.1K or 48K - obviosuly set it to 44.1k


    Thats it...


    I set my clock to 48k on the Behringer and the Saffire pro - it all went out of sync no matter what I did.

    When I tried setting everything to 44.1K it syncs up nicely again.


    Cheers.


    Rob.

  • Thanks for sharing! Might be one of the reasons I never had the severe problems others were reporting with using TI. I’ve always used 44.1kHz for the whole recording system and just recently switched over to 48kHz.
