Sorry for the double-post, but it sounds like the most stable firmware version folks found for the ultralite in that thread was a beta version: MOTU AVB 1.3.4+558 which isn't distributed any more on the MOTU site as far as I can tell...

I have the clock sync issue that sounds like a bitcrushed LFO going from a clean sounding signal and then sputtering out into silence and back again over the course of a minute or two...
