Audio Drop Out -- Trying to Find Culprit in Logs

[kingseamus]

[Mac Pro 5,1, 10.12.6]

For months now, my audio interface (Apogee Duet 2, USB-powered) seemingly randomly cuts out, causing my speakers to pop loudly, then power cycles indefinitely.

These drop-outs are not obviously tied to any activity on my Mac--it could happen when I'm checking email on Chrome, using Pro Tools, on Steam, or even if the computer is totally idle.

Tonight the problem reoccured at 8:35 PM, and I went to the Logs section of System Information to try to grab any relevant entries. Under Apple System Log (ASL) Messages, the following entries were from 8:35, when the audio interface's drop-out and power cycling began:

Under Power Management logs, it showed:

Do these log entries point to any potential source of this audio interface power cycling problem?

 

[DJLunacy]

I have this same exact problem, and it's driving me insane!

I've been unable to use this thing for months and have it run stable.

I've randomly been trying everything I can think of and or find to resolve it and so far it doesn't seem i'm any farther ahead.

Oh man, I feel your pain.

I'm determined to figure this out (or shell out for an RME Babyface Pro), and if I do, I'lll let you know the solution!

Are you using a flashed graphics card from MacVidCards by any chance? Any entries that pop up in the logs for you (power management for the apple systems log or other logs) that seem to coincide with the occurrence of the Duet's power cycling?

My main rig is also on 10.12.6
Was running Logic X 10.4 (I think it was running earlier versions when this issue started)
At some point, I updated my clover hoping that would help. (It didn't)

I updated Logic X to the latest version and also updated my Waves Plugins to v10 thinking that could have had something to do with it as well.

When I get home I can give you some more concrete details.

IIRC - I don't believe I have any power saving modes activated, so nothing should be going to sleep.

I know in the past some of the builds had USB issues, and issues related to sleep.

No, I am not using a flashed video card. I am using a 1070 GTX. A post I found while digging, seemed to have a claim that somebody had an updated firmware that wasn't present on the Apogee site. I'm assuming that's just new to them and was, in fact, an updated firmware that was in the June 2015 installer.

If you want to message me your e-mail address I can send you all the notes that I have, and the snippets of log files that I've made.

I'm hard-pressed to believe this is a hardware issue. It doesn't make any sense to me that the interface would "work" randomly and eventually (almost all of my recent tests) within an hour it would start flaking out before going into a power/reboot loop.

I can tell you from memory before trying to make some detailed logs.

My main rig is also on 10.12.6
Was running Logic X 10.4 (I think it was running earlier versions when this issue started)
At some point, I updated my clover hoping that would help. (It didn't)

I updated Logic X to the latest version and also updated my Waves Plugins to v10 thinking that could have had something to do with it as well.

When I get home I can give you some more concrete details.

IIRC - I don't believe I have any power saving modes activated, so nothing should be going to sleep.

I know in the past some of the builds had USB issues, and issues related to sleep.

Thanks, DJLunacy. This is frustrating as hell, I know. I'm taking my Mac Pro and the Duet 2 into a specialist next week. If I discover anything or if the issue miraculously gets resolved, I'll let you know.

In the meantime I'll direct Apogee's tech support to this forum post in the hopes that they can glean something from my information and your information regarding the Duet drop-outs.

It appears that an update (v2.5) came out that I didn’t know about...

For 10.14 support from the sound of it. I tried the interface on my desktop and MacBook (running 10.14) and same results and crashes.
