Please can someone from Elektron confirm that 10.6.2 fixes this issue? I would like to upgrade from 10.5 as soon as possible.
Iāve updated Logic to 10.6.2 but OB is still broken. The start/stop and tempo sync seems broken too. Maybe am I missing somethingā¦
Come on elektron, we havenāt purchased your products for them to sit on a shelf! If you purchased a cheese and ham sandwich and having taken it out of packaging there was no ham. You would expect the vendor to make amends would you not?
I briefly tested and it seems to work for me (MacBook Pro Mid 2014, latest Catalina Update).
One thing i recognised while updating: i had Logic 10.5.1 (or whatever the latest working version was) installed and updated in the AppStore. But it didnāt update to 10.6.2 (as expected). Instead it went to 10.6. (which doesnāt work with OB) and i had to update again to 10.6.2. Now it works for me.

My problem isnāt even Logic related : in OB mode, my DN disappear as an audio interface in the system Prefs, so it wonāt show up in Logic as an audio interface. It works fine though in audio/midi over USB.
I noticed an issue with the tempo sync on my DT. It seemed that for the first few bars it was at half speed then it would eventually catch up. I found that letting it run for a bit so that it syncs and then restarting the track fixes this issueā¦albeit it does seem like a band-aid solution. At least itās useable now.
omg it works

I had the same issue under Catalina, but now the tempo sync is completely broken under BS.
I raised a support ticket with Elektron and they replied yesterday confirming that Logic Pro 10.6.2 does fix this issue. So Iāll take the plunge shortly and report back.

ā¦still so many people blaming a small swedish company for not catching up constantly with all the constant changes of the two global players in os platforms, with their FOR FREE editor softwareā¦
history showsā¦whenever there was a next ob version up and running for real, the global players came up with a next new thing and everything was obsolete again a few weeks laterā¦
who is relying on ob canāt also constantly rely on the next new main hosting os/daw updateā¦
simple as thatā¦
this is a nerverending storyā¦a dog that hunts itās tailā¦
i never work with the latest shitā¦i always work with the stuff and the versions that proofed they work smooth for real alreadyā¦leads to better work and less frustrationā¦
and NOW itās logic 10.6.2ā¦and apple adressed the ob problem officiallyā¦
seems like cuppertino/hamburg emagic leftovers made it work finally againā¦
if soā¦DONāT UPDATE AGAIN on either side of this everlasting fragile equasion as long there is no official prooven next new comboā¦
and if u canāt resistā¦well, then, do what they always tell uā¦backup ur running system before ur in another mood for another next round of beta testing againā¦

... still so many people blaming...
I hear you, and if it were only Apple I would feel differently. But even without appleās updates, Overbridge has been sketchy at best. Like right now I canāt get OB Engine to recognize my DT/DN. I updated the DT/DN. Updated Logic. Updated OB. Set to OB on DT/DN. Checked security settings on Mac mini 2018. They are obviously connected because I was able to transfer and update the devices. But nothing is showing up in OB engine. The forums have always had multiple threads of people who get frequent disconnect (like now). No doubt that via some formula some people have had nothing but good luck. But this software seems hit or miss, mostly miss for me. I try it, get frustrated, and put it away. I have lots of hardware synths, drum machines, etc. The ones with software components have nowhere near the inconsistency of my two Elektron devices. Granted, what Elektron is trying to pull off is a bit more complicated. But in my opinion, if youāre going to release something, be sure you can make it solid.

I would argue Itās not for free when the products are marketed as having the OB feature. If you take a look at the product pages they make a big deal out of the OB features. I do not wish elektron or anyone else any animosity and Iām sure they are trying their best but you canāt be offering products with features that only work sometimes as you would be contravening the trade descriptions act, in the UK at least. If you canāt honour a feature said features should not be used to market a product.

ā¦ya, since ob became such a neverending loss of constant developer power, which has a massive underestimated price tag within such a small company, they have to promote their hardware products at least on top with itā¦
fact isā¦ob, that great idea, been never priced into former products for realā¦
the machines are calculated very tight alreadyā¦there aināt no dedicated ob fee included yetā¦
ob turned from a great idea, a nice to have add on for free option to a neverending nightmare that blocks developer capacities ever since, that would be hardly needed for next new concepts and further firmware updatesā¦
i canāt call an A4 an expensive device by any meansā¦for itās official price tag, i get a damned serious and full on pro instrumentā¦like no otherā¦no ob neededā¦even if it was that product that gave birth to the ob idea in first placeā¦
same now with all other āob readyā devicesā¦the hardware deliversā¦the software bridge remains pretty unpredictable in every naturally given aspect of itā¦
somebody who donāt wanna see and accept the massive struggle and catch22 factor included here, has never made their mind up, what a neverending challenge this friendly but unfulfillable promise includes for realā¦
Eagerly awaiting your replyā¦ didnāt get a chance to fire everything up this weekend but hoping to do so this week and would love a heads up on whether or not I should attempt to bang my head against this or just leave it be for a bit longerā¦
Iām good now. I hadnāt installed the Big Sure version - I thought it was the one on the downloads page, didnāt realize it was still in beta. Everything working now. Logic 10.6.2, Big Sur, most recent Elektron firmware.

OK NEVERMIND I havenāt changed anything since my last post on this thread but now for some reason itās not working anymore. Itās still distorting but differently I feel, more of an ugly sound than before. 12 days ago it worked for a split second in the space/time continuum.
Oh well I guess one just canāt expect too much (in my case anything) from this software.
Too bad, I was really hoping to multitrack each track separately along with my 8 physical outputs from all my other machines to finally reach that fully multitracked dream but yeah, dreams are for sleeping.
Goodnight Overbridge
Confirming: Logic 10.6.2, Catalina 10.15.7, Overbridge 2.0.47.1, DT OS 1.21, DN OS 1.31 seemed to be working and stable for me last night.

Also just chiming in here that I just upgraded to Logic 10.6.2 on Catalina and overbridge with DT works on my 2012 MBP.
Anyone tried with 10.6.3 yet?
Iām one of those twitchy update finger idiots that likes to keep things updatedā¦
