I have a problem that i can’t figure out .. I have my main computer MAC Pro using Pro Tools containing all my MIDI data sessions. I have a PC computer running all Vienna libraries. I connect using the Vienna Ensemble Server on my MAC using the instrument channel. Session comes up on the server PC. The sound is now garbled and distorted. If I only add a couple of channels the sound is now clear, as I add instruments it starts up. I am not over loading the channels .. In fact I lowered everything to make sure… I do use a D-Link ethernet switch box that has the internet, PC, MAC, and my D command connections. I am using CAT 5 cable. I cannot isolate the problem because i need that box to communicate to my console. I have never had this problem before. The only change i did on the PC was exchange 2 Barracuda drives for 2 SSD drives. Could I use a sound card instead of going into the ethernet cable for audio… how is this done? Is using the ethernet cable for audio the right way to go? Could the switch box be causing this? Support says to upgrade to CAT6 … O.K.that’s easy, but i don’t think that will fix this problem. How about tweaking the PC perhaps BIOS? any suggestions ...
I’m lost….
