Ravenna Linux driver is a sort-of Cinderella
Anyway there are Feb-2022 updates in the git repository: https://bitbucket.org/MergingTechnologi ... m/commits/

P.S. I love Linux but decided to stay on Windows + ASIO as the latter driver is maintained more frequently.

At the end, I employed a Grimm CC2 master clock, which can work with Merging Hapi for all sample rates as follows. I use just the two base FS = 44.1k and 48k from Grimm (Setup->I/O->Sync->WCK), and multiplies them by 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x internally in Hapi as follows: just go to Setup->Formats->Auto and d...

Hi DJS: it's 32bit fixed: ASIOSTInt32LSB = little-endian 32-bit integers (i.e. lowest byte first in the 4 bytes of each integer sample: B0 B1 B2 B3, where each Bi is a byte). Note: nobody can hear the info in byte B0, so the relevant info is in the 24-bit B1 B2 B3 with ASIOSTInt32LSB; however it's c...

Finally :!: :!: :!: The latest release Merging Audio Device - MAD Driver - v2.1.0 Build 895 permits to choose between 24-bit and 32-bit samples in the MAD panel! I strongly suggest to use 32-bit samples, the app using MAD will have less hurdles to handle 32-bit samples rather than 24-bit ones. I che...

Not a very crowded forum indeed: anyway the point is that CPUs work with 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, 64-bit, etc. data. So 24-bit data is a bit strange. It is only useful for Ravenna transmission as probably Anubis/Hapi/Horus have internally a 32-bit bus. For this reason, IMHO the burden of handling 24-b...

Although the following seems to be a technical issue, it involves all the Anubis/Hapi/Horus owners that use ASIO as their driver. What I propose improves audio processing in CPU and memory when using ASIO hosts, without any negative impact on the Ravenna protocol. Please reply to this message if you...

Hello Vinod, this forum is not very active, so I forgot to check the messages after a while and I did not see your reply. I first apologize and then thank you for replying :) I was not very clear with my question: what if I directly feed the Hapi with 10Mhz as external World Clock? Does it accept it...

Did anyone tried to connect a 10Mhz clock directly on the Hapi wordclock input?

I know that Hapi accepts from 44.1Khz to 394Khz as input on the BNC.
What if reference 10Mhz clock is given? Anyone did it give a try?

Thank you

By pinging the team by email do you mean contacting tech support as written in the forum rules? -R P.S. I wrote my ASIO app for Windows and wanted to switch to Linux but I am a bit discouraged by the fact the ALSA Linux driver is not updated as frequently as the ASIO Ravenna Windows driver :( The Me...

Some network cards already implement the PTP sync mechanism (conformant to PTPv2) in hardware.
In this case, is Merging Ravenna ASIO driver using that hw PTP sync mechanism instead of its own software PTP?

Windows Server 2016 would be even more stable but the latest ASIO Ravenna Merging driver (v.11), differently from the previous versions, makes a preliminary check and refuses to install on it

If you use ASIO Merging Ravenna driver, it may help also to run some netsh optimisations. Login as administrator and open the CMD terminal from the Windows start menu. Run the following command to see the current status (and to resume that in case of issues): netsh interface tcp show global In my ca...

I cannot understand if you have an inboard NIC for Ethernet or if you are using the one sold by Merging.
I do not use Masscore on my Hapi, so I have installed a PCIe Intel Pro dual port of top quality (server edition).
Also, if you use a switch, check if it is compatible.

If you are a NADAC owner, your seller should have given you access to a copy of Emotion as it comes with the NADAC. -R First post. As a brand new NADAC owner, count me as someone who would sure like to see Emotion available. In fact, it was the functionality of Emotion, touted on the NADAC website, ...
