Two Roland Boutiques in Ableton

[pascual]

I hope someone can shed some light.

Two boutiques (Ju06a & TR08) hooked up to MacBook via usb. I get them to play through an aggregate device in audio midi settings, and out the SSL 2+ interface. It takes some time to sync all sounds using the delay comp slider, but then after a while, or when adding other vast or playing midi keyboard, the boutiques start drifting and the previous settings no longer keep everything in sync.

Furthermore, after a while of playing often get noise crackles coming out of the machines.

Anyone have some ideas here?

Might be clock drift, in the aggregate device make sure your SSL is the first device in the list and the clock source and enable the drift prevention checkbox for the boutiques.

Thank you kindly for that tip. Will check it out.

I'm also unsure about the settings in the midi studio window in audio midi setup. Are there any particular connections that should happen?

The very simple advice up top here really fixed things apparently. Will update after more time and tests.
