For some time now I have been having intermittent problems with audio cues failing to play from Showcue. I have posted a couple of times.
It has been difficult to track down because quite often the audio files are quite small and the event is over before the operator sees what is going on.
I am using the USB Steinburg UR22-M from a PC on Windows 7, driving 3 pairs of speakers through amplifiers through an X32 mixer.
Last night 5 minutes into a stage show, audio cues failed to play though channels 3 & 4. I restarted Showcue and all came good for the rest of the show. This is about 1/2 an hour after testing the system pre-show. I Googled problems with the Steinburg and found that there are indeed issues that can be problematic to solve.
I think the best move would be to install a PCI sound card and ditch the Steinburg, I don't use all the functions of unit anyway, besides I would like to expand to 4 channels.
Fortunately there is only 1 show to go then a 5 week break.
I would be interested in hearing if anyone has had problems with this unit.
Thanks
Geoff.
