Logic pro x audio drops out when punching record in/out, Macbook M1 Hi, Can anyone help me solving an annoying issue with logic on my new Macbook pro M1, Big Sur? In logic (and garageband) when activating (toggling) record on an audio track all audio from other tracks drops out for 1-2 seconds. I have been going through all audio settings and have been testing with both built-in and an external soundcard (RME). I also have Cubase (10.0) running on the same machine, and it works fine. Actually I bought Logic along with the M1 macbook pro expecting that it would run far smoother than Cubase...

Logic Pro X 10.8 recording latencies Was running macOS Ventura with previous version of Logic Pro X (10.7.8 or whatever). Running on a MacBook Pro 2018 or 2019 Intel version. Was happily recording music for last couple years through a Focusrite. One day everything was fine. Next day Logic Pro X updated automatically to 10.8 and now all my audio inputs have a noticeable delay on recording. It's unusable. I changed nothing else. I tried restarting everything including the laptop. No change. I went ahead and installed macOS Sonoma. No change. Anyone else having this issue? Seems like other related performance issues with 10.8 on the forums possibly. MacBook Pro specs: 2.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5 Intel Iris Plus Graphics 655 1536 MB 16 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3

Latency Problems with Logic Pro 10 I'm experiencing an unacceptable latency when recording guitars with Logic on my new 2021 MacBook Pro M1 Pro, 16" version, which is ridiculous. I'm using Presonus AudioBox iTwo audio interface. I'm testing variety of settings for audio options in Logic, but even minumum buffer size ot 32 samples gives me an unacceptable latency. This problem don't exists on Windows computer, and even on my old 2013 MacBook Pro was better than this! I treid to unplug any devices from the macbook and plug just the usb cable ot the interface - the result is the same. I tried to change Processing Threads option from Auto to 10 cores and Process Buffer Range to any of the options there - no luck at all. MacOS Monterey Logic Pro 10.7 /I tried 10.6 too, but the latency is the same/

Yeah, Logic and Big Sur are having problems, what are you using for an Audio Interface.?

What sample rate are you using?

Pretty sure the "snap" is reset of Core Audio.

Doubt if it will help but resetting preferences to defaults might be worth a try. (see my post in the topic below.)

That computer may have the dreaded T2 chip not sure. Embarrassing that Apple's own software runs badly on the latest OS.
