Studio one v5 slows to a crawl with aggregate audio device

asked Jul 23, 2021 in Studio One 5 by vinodananth2 (190 points)
I have two audio interfaces, both set at 48K. With studio one v5, I can select each individual interface with no issue. I created an aggregate interface in coreAudio, but whenever I select that, it causes studio one to slow down to a crawl.

If I quit and restart studio one, it tries to use the same aggregate device on startup and keeps flashing a "Restart requested by audio device" multiple times and then it's back to being really sluggish and slow. Another observation, is that if I do a clean re-install of studio one v5 (and remove all the settings folders), it will start up and force my aggregate audio device to 44.1K and work normally. However, as soon as I open a song or create a song in 48K, it goes back to the initial problem. And then I am stuck at 48K.. even if I change my interface back to 44.1, studio one forces it back to 48K and slows down.

I have studio one v4 installed on the same machine and it has absolutely no problems with the aggregate device. Also have Logic & Ableton both of which have no problems.

I am on Mac OS Big Sur

Hi, I have the same problem sinds an OS update. Have you found the solution to your problem in 2021? If so it would be great to hear what your solution was.

Thanks,
