AudioFuse 16Rig Locking Up - Requires Hard Reboot

I’ve had my 16Rig for a few months now and have been very impressed, save for a couple of issues with AFCC. However, every so often, the unit completely locks up. It fails to respond to any button press on the front panel and it also causes my Mac to refuse to play video because the audio renderer is not responding.

To remedy this, I have to literally disconnect the power from the mains (not particularly easy as the connections are all behind my studio desk. Pressing and holding the power button does absolutely nothing at all.

Once reset and rebooted, everything is back to normal. I noticed this happening on this and previous revisions of the firmware.

For info, my AF 16Rig is connected directly to my Mac Studio using the Arturia cable and is running the latest FW.

If anyone else has been having a similar experience, I’d love to hear from you before I raise a ticket with support.

Regards,

Rob
