TX-6 Buffer Underrun and USB playback crashes

Other Gear

Ever since the USB recording/playback was introduced for TX-6 I have been experiencing playback crashes.

On the 1_2_13 firmware the freeze would occur often at exactly 1:55 timing during the playback of files that were recorded on that USB. Different files would freeze (or choke with a bit of stutter) at that same time. The only way to get out of this would be to power cycle the unit.

On the 1_2_15 firmware the freeze happens at differnt times, and the mixer nwo displays “BUFFER UNDERRUN” message, while the rest of the behavior is like before: freeze, stutter, and power cycle needed to get out of it.

Effectively I am unable to play back on the device, the files that the device recorded.

I submitted a report to TE, but I am curious if anyone else has experienced these (can you replicate this behavior on your unit?) and if anyone was able to effectively remedy this problem.

Thanks in advance,
p.

PS
I am using this SAMSUNG drive, based on recommendations of folks who found it reliable:

Is it every time you play things back, or just sometimes? I often record to USB and /sometimes/ play it back in-mixer, but I’ve never seen this message.

Recording works fine, but playback stalls every single time.

does the TX6 have like a factory reset type of function?
maybe just needs to clear some cobwebs…?

have u tried formatting the usb drive again? or in a different way?
maybe something isn’t lining up or playing nice?

Thank you for chiming in.
It’s the only drive I used with it.
I am pretty sure I have formatted the drive when I first used it, but maybe it’s not a bad idea to wipe it clean and reformat.
