Hey Ray, It's been over a year since this has been recorded. Bring on some more AVB videos/tutorials. I would love to see a complete start to finish with examples showing you actually going into the console menus and show us how to set this up. I tried last night but the subscriptions in the matrix never gave me a check mark in the box. Only an X in the box. Does the console need to be set to Network or internal sync. Can the ethernet AVB be on the same switch as my other Ethernet things. I was trying simply with an Ethernet cable from the console to the Mac, no switch involved. thanks, you da man!

I was trying to set this up on my new Mac Studio M2 Max (Studiolive 32sc & NSB 16.8), some differences in the AVB util. No simple virtual audio window any more. It's all under the ATDECC controller. With those differences in mind, I did enable it on the new mac studio, but could never get return audio out of the mains. Banged my head against this for a few days until I broke down and got a specific avb thunderbolt adapter (sonnet thunderbolt avb adapter). Worked like a charm, got return audio out the mains. I'm not sure if there's been changes to the internal nic on the studio or not but I thought it would be a good idea to post this here in case others are having the same issue.

Thanks for the explanation! A use case it's not mentioned but it totally works is setting up to 64 channels between two Macs with just an ethernet cable. Adding Loopback to the equation you can have routing independent from the DAW and share the same regular (non AVB) USB device (or aggregated devices) I/O between those two computers! It's amazingly stable and latency is great. Audio routed to the same interface output is summed. Super useful for live uses like redundancy setups, two people (two DAW) performances, offloading CPU, audio and video/light independent processes (audio reactivity) and maaany more stuff I can't think of now. If you happen to have two Macs, I suggest to make a video specifically for a two Mac setup with USB audio interface, a lot of people would be interested. Cheers!

I know AVB “requires” an Ethernet cable, somewhere between the Macs (at least was a key to understanding for me). I have 2 Macs: each with an Apple Thunderbolt2 to Ethernet dongle (actually one is, first, a T3-to-T2-dongle, then a T2-to-Ethernet-dongle) & an Ethernet cable between them for 64 tracks. If I connect straight to one Mac’s Ethernet port, I seem to always be pulled into being limited to 16 tracks….(maybe I’m wrong & every Config defaults to 16 🤷♂️ I dunno 🙄) I know even an old Thunderbolt2 port is MUCH faster than a 1Gb Ethernet port (& the Ethernet cable just rides along at any speed it’s connected to…mine is Cat8) Btw I just got 2 of these ($6 for 10ft?? 🥳) & the first Ethernet cable I’ve weirdly ever thought of as “gorgeous” 🙄 DanYee Cat 8 Ethernet Cable, Nylon Braided 10ft High Speed Network Cable LAN Cable Wires CAT 8 RJ45 Ethernet Cable Cord 3ft 10ft 16ft 26ft 33ft 50ft 66ft 100ft (Black 10ft) a.co/d/4uDx3ho

Hi Ray, Thank you for this informative video!!! Since you know AVB inside out maybe you could shine some light on my following problem: I would like to set up a small home recording studio as follows (this would be of course the aim, I don't know if this is at the present stage of development possible): 1. at my Mac I would like something with at least 2 mic and maybe 2 line ins, with 2 or 4 outputs for monitors and maybe headphones - something small 19", 2. the interface at my mac should be an DAW connection point to the mac and also be able to connect digital stage boxes via ethernet (like Presonus NSB or Midas DL32 or Behringer SD16), 3. there should be a possibility to connect via ethernet personal monitoring like Presonus EarMix 16M or Midas DP48 - it would be best if this was possible with power over ethernet and directly to the stage boxes. I know that I have mixed different connection protocols, like AVB and AES50, but it was just to show what kind of solution I am looking for. Any chance that such a setup might be possible without robbing a bank? Kind regards, Wojciech Migda

While this setup has been rock solid, it would be great to not need the RME Digiface AVB and connect the switch directly to my 2017 iMac. I was under the impression from my previous dance with MOTU hardware (what a nightmare) that direct connection to the Mac was not supported with anything other than macOS 10.11 due to reliability issues with the macOS AVB driver.

Connection was and is made through Audio Network -> CAT6-cable -> Apple adaptor GBit Ethernet to Thunderbolt2. My MacBook does not see the StudioLive III-24.

Yesterday, I followed this video and got our 64s all linked up, but for some reason when I did that, my 64s stopped receiving audio from my NSB 16.8. Now today I came back to continue working on it and trouble shoot it and the computer isn't seeing the 64s connected via ethernet. Trying to figure this out. Hope you can help. Thank you!
@BeerswiththeBeard4 жыл бұрын
Hey Joshua! Just to make sure, you don't have the 64S selected in Core Audio as the sound device correct? This will cause the mixer to enter into "acquire" mode which blocks out all other AVB connections. The computer should have its own Ethernet port as the sound devices. Second, if the computer isn't seeing the 64S over AVB check to see if it shows itself in the ADECC setup or if it reports as all zeros. If that's the case there's a bug we've seen where something on the Apple AVB gets messed up. Reinstalling the OS will fix it.

Beers with the Beard trying to understand all this. I’m not really familiar with AVB at all other than connecting our stage box to our console. Richard sent me this video yesterday and we are trying to get it worked out. I think he sent you an email as well. Hoping I can get on a support call or screen share with someone there and get it figured out

Thanks! I haven't heard anything about AVB audio streaming being natively supported in Windows. Media Clock is the same as Word Clock. It's the beat to which all digital audio devices that are connected together play to ensure everything is sample accurate. Without it you'd end up with pops and clicks in your audio because sample wouldn't align correctly.

@@BeerswiththeBeard Thanks Ray - is the clock embedded in the media stream? And on the subject of embedded stuff can you embed time code or midi timecode in AVB. I think RME do Midi over MADI - would the same thing be possible over AVB? ta, like.
@BeerswiththeBeard4 жыл бұрын
The clock, like that of AES or ADAT devices, can be synced through a dedicated stream such as the Media Clock stream which carries only Media Clock or by clocking off an Audio stream. Currently PreSonus AVB products clock of the incoming Audio stream 1 but this will change in the future to a dedicated Media Clock stream to be compliant with the Avnu Milan certification. Sending other data such as time code and MIDI I'm sure is possible. The specifications are for TSN or Time Sensitive Networking and are not exclusive to Audio and Video. I'm not sure if anyone is doing that at the moment.

I have a 2013 retina mbp with two tb2 ports. I have a motu 1248 interface, with a motu 24Ai, a motu 24Ao, a motu midi interface XT, and the motu AVB bridge. Motu tech support states that 1248 and midi xt interface must be connected via the motu USB ports to the mbp. I’m assuming that means tb2 to usb cables to both devices and then all three motu devices connected Ethernet through the motu AVB switch? That forces me to then use a OWC thunderbolt 3 pro dock to connect my two 37” display monitors(Dp/hdmi/usb inputs), raid drive(tb3/usb3 ports), soft tube console 1(usb), presonus atom sq(usb), presonus v3 station(usb) and a wireless router. Will my remaining mbp USB port communicate to these devices through the OWC dock successfully in your opinion? With my router Ethernet to the motu AVB bridge and then Ethernet to the OWC dock, provide communication to the other devices periphal devices thru the dock and the mbp successfully? Will my mbp hdmi port run both my monitors or does it have to connect to the dock then feed the monitors from its DP ports? Can you help with my configuration issue?
@BeerswiththeBeard3 жыл бұрын
I'm not familiar enough with the MBP display capabilities to answer your HDMI question. As for the Ethernet, if you're running AVB audio on that Ethernet the USB adaptor probably won't work as most of them don't have an AVB compatible chip. If all you need is control, that should work fine.

A big hello and thank you so much Ray for the video. I am a totally newbie to AVB, but have experienced enough latency/other issues via USB 2 route to make me never go down that route again. I am looking at purchasing a SL 32SC to be later used along with the 32R, both as a dumb snake box and as an iPad controlled mini set-up. I read somewhere that you cannot use AVB with the SL 3 series to add preamp channels (32R) when you are also looking to record/playback via AVB with an Apple computer. With my limited understanding of this subject, the process you discussed in the video would seem to be a workaround to this Apple driver limitation. Help!! In regards to the SL mixer, I need the road portability of the SL 32 SC plus the capability to increase the channel count via the 24R/32R while still maintaining the ability to record/playback this setup via AVB. What do I need to do to make this happen!!??And did I say that I absolutely hate USB?? Thanks in advance for any help/input regarding my very particular AVB / SL / Apple situation. Cheers!!
@BeerswiththeBeard3 жыл бұрын
With the method outlined here you'll be able to both use the AVB to add preamps (via the rack mixer or a stage box) and route AVB to/from a compatible Mac computer. Note however that at the moment, the Apple implementation for AVB has a latency similar to USB at around 10ms.

Hi, great video. Quick question though. I got it all 64 chs connected and working between my SL3-32 and MacBook Pro (mid 2015). I noticed my Mac started going into hyper mode, and the temp and fan went ballistic. Can I just use a few channels (like 16 or 24), to prevent a meltdown?

As of right now, that's just how AVB works on a Mac. Apple has been making a lot of improvements to the performance and I expect to see that big spike in fan and temp to start going down with future OS updates.

Hi Ray! First of all, thank you for your time and for this great video. I've been wanting to apply this solution to our church setup for months. Finally, I got to work on it last night. But unfortunately, I encounter a problem. (probably doing something wrong). This is the gear I'm using: Studio Live 64S, (3) NSB 16.8, SW5E, and a MacBook Pro with the 2 suggested adapters. I followed every step you provided on the video, everything looks good. But as soon as I assign connections on the AVDECC Connection Matrix, I lose all the signals from the stage boxes. I can see signals from the analog I/O on the 64S, but nothing from the stage boxes. Any idea what I could be doing wrong here? Thank you for your help.

Is it possible with AVB to send a track to your computer to have that track processed through effects and then sent back to the studiolive for use in a live sound application? Like processing a vocal at a concert?
@BeerswiththeBeard4 жыл бұрын
Yes, this is possible. Keep in mind that right now the AVB latency is fixed at 2ms so you'll have 2ms to the computer and 2ms from the computer back to the mixer. Add to that whatever your computer internal latency is and you'll have the total round trip latency this will introduce. In the future the AVB latency will be adjustable but 2ms is the required default setting.
