Mac mini M2: Maschine 2 works great, Maschine 3 glitches even pressing the caps lock key

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Mac mini M2 here, Maschine 2 works great, Maschine 3 glitches even pressing the caps lock key. No joke. It glitches randomly otherwise, but I can make it glitch on command with the caps lock key.

However, running as a VST, maschine 3 doesn't glitch… both ways using the same audio settings.

I hope they are working on bug fixes

Glitch, as in a tiny transient that is like an extended click of whitish noise, but very brief. Longer than a click from a non-zero crossing split waveform. It is similar to what moving a dirty audio jack sounds like.

In contrast to a drop-out, where not enough data is getting to the audio card and there is a gap of silence. This glitch is like scrambled bits. Even if I increase the sample buffer as high as it will go, the glitching is completely unaffected… glitches exactly the same way.

I tried putting the sound card on different USB ports, on different USB hubs of different speed and brand. Exactly the same glitching.

I was very surprised when I couldn't get it to glitch when running as a VST inside Ableton.
