Line 6 HD500X on MacBook Pro - RSCherry - 09-12-2020
I did a quick forum search on the Line 6 HD500X and found very little info, so I'll ask my question here.
I'm new to JK and just working on setting it up. I'd like to use my Line 6 HD500X as my audio interface through my MacBook Pro (Catalina 10.15.6). I am all green when I join a session except for latency, which is yellow no matter what I change. I am connected via an ethernet cable directly to my extender. I have tinkered with some settings and the best results I have so far are shown below, all at 24 bit. The best latency I have achieved so far is 11.3ms using 44.1hz with a 1ms frame size:
FORMAT(hz) Frame Size (ms) Latency (ms)
44.1 1 11.3
48.0 1 11.8
88.2 1 11.4
96.0 1 11.5
44.1 2 13.3
48.0 2 13.8
88.2 2 13.4
96.0 2 13.5
Line 6 tech support suggested changing to 16 bit, but being somewhat new the the Mac I can't see where to change that.
Has anyone been successful in setting up the HD500X and if so what settings are you using? Is this a futile effort, and I should just get one of the interface units that seem to work with low latency?
Thanks in advance!
