12 Performance Tips & Troubleshooting
Things seems like they are working fine, but the
UltraLite-mk3 then just drops off line, and the
computer can’t see it anymore on the FireWire bus.
This is a common symptom when the problem is
that the UltraLite-mk3 is not getting enough
power. Check the power source for the
UltraLite-mk3. Make sure that the power
connection meets the requirements outlined in
“Bus power requirements” on page 23.
Why does the start sound not play through the
UltraLite-mk3?
The UltraLite-mk3 will only playback audio at a
sampling rate of 44.1, 48, 88.2. 96. 176.4 or
192 kHz.
The computer freezes when it starts up
If the computer is unable to boot up, it may be a
conflict with the WDM Driver. As soon as the
computer boots up, Windows will try and initialize
the WDM Driver. If this fails, your computer will
hang. To determine if the WDM Driver is the
problem, boot up in Safe Mode or remove the
MOTU Audio software with the Add/Remove
Programs Control Panel then restart. Reinstall the
UltraLite-mk3 software and choose only to install
the MOTU ASIO driver, not the WDM Driver.
Restart again.
‘New hardware detected’ window
If you connect your UltraLite-mk3 before running
the UltraLite-mk3 Software Installer CD, Windows
will prompt you that new hardware has been
detected. Cancel this, and run the UltraLite-mk3
Software Installer, rather than allowing Windows
to locate the drivers.
UltraLite-mk3 inputs and outputs are not
available in SONAR
Make sure that the inputs and/or outputs that you
want to use are enabled in SONAR.
Sound Forge and ‘Smooth Scroll’
If the Smooth Scroll option under the Options
menu is turned on, you may experience clicks and
pops or other anomalies in the audio playback.
This gets worse as you zoom in more to the
waveform while playing. For the best quality
playback, turn this option off.
Clicks and pops due to hard drive problems
If you have checked your clock settings sync cable
connections and you are still getting clicks and
pops in your audio, you may have a drive related
problem. Set the UltraLite-mk3 Clock Source to
Internal and try recording just using the analog
inputs and outputs of the UltraLite-mk3. If you
encounter the same artifacts you may want try
using another drive in your computer. Clicks and
pops can also occur when the drive is severely
fragmented or the disk drivers are outdated.
If you are using a FireWire drive on the same bus as
the UltraLite-mk3, it could be that the FireWire
bus is overloaded (too many devices on the same
bus). Try removing all devices except the
UltraLite-mk3.
Connecting or powering gear during operation
It is not recommended that you connect/
disconnect, or power on/off devices connected to
the UltraLite-mk3 while recording or playing back
audio. Doing so may cause a brief glitch in the
audio.
Monitoring - how do I monitor inputs?
Please refer to the documentation for the audio
application that you are using. If your application
does not support input monitoring, you will need
to use the UltraLite-mk3’s hardware-based

- From the factory the phones jack figure 6 1 is a discrete output at 44 48 khz but it can mirror any other output pair digital or analog or serve as its own independent output 36
- Main out volume 36
- Phones 36
- Push the vol knob twice to view and control the volume of the main outs on the rear panel 36
- The master volume adjustment can be programmed to control any combination of outputs see the monitor group on page 84 for details 36
- To view the current setting without changing it just push the knob without turning it 36
- When you turn the phone vol knob the lcd display provides visual feedback 36

- Individual channels once you scroll past master and reverb the page knob then scrolls through all available inputs for the mix bus once you choose an input access its channel settings using the param knob and value knob 41
- Inputs menu 41
- Once you ve selected the reverb menu you can access all settings using the parameter and value knobs the page knob is not needed and is therefore disabled when editing reverb settings 41
- Reverb these are the reverb send and return controls for the bus master fader access them with the parameter knob 41
- Summary of mix menu settings for a summary of mix menu settings see mixes menu on page 42 41
- Summary of reverb menu settings see reverb menu on page 42 for a summary 41
- The reverb processor is not available at sample rates above 48 khz therefore when the ultralite mk3 is operating at 88 khz or higher the reverb menu does not appear in the lcd 41
- The reverb settings push the channel button repeatedly until you see reverb in the channel section of the lcd figure 6 9 this is similar to accessing the reverb tab in cuemix fx the reverb tab on page 83 41
- All settings including all mix settings and global settings are saved in the ultralite mk3 s memory and they remain in effect even when the ultralite mk3 is not connected to a computer this allows you to use the ultralite mk3 as a stand alone 8 bus mixer you can make adjustments to any setting at any time from the front panel 42

- Cuemix fx installation 62
- Cuemix fx is installed with the rest of your ultralite mk3 software 62
- Cuemix fx provides several major advantages over mixing and processing in your host audio software 62
- Cuemix has no buffer latency thanks to the ultralite mk3 s dsp chip cuemix provides the same throughput performance as a digital mixer 62
- Cuemix mixing and effects processing imposes no processor drain on the computer s cpu 62
- Cuemix routing can be maintained independently of individual software applications or projects 62
- Cuemix routing can operate without the computer allowing the ultralite mk3 to operate as a portable stand alone mixer with effects 62
- Each input output and mix bus provides a send to the classic reverb processor which then feeds reverb returns to mix busses and outputs with a selectable split point between them to prevent send return feedback loops 62

- Syncing to smpte time code 106
- The ultralite mk3 system can resolve directly to smpte time code it can also generate time code under its own clock or while slaving to time code therefore the ultralite mk3 can act both as an audio interface and as a smpte time code synchronizer to which you can slave other devices you can use the ultralite mk3 to slave your audio software to time code as well as long as your software supports sample accurate sync which is the means by which the software follows the ultralite mk3 the accuracy may not be sample accurate but in most cases it will be very close 106
