ADC Troubleshooting

The ADC does its best to fix and auto-resume from any problems. In the case that the progress bar does not move for (say) 5 minutes, then quit out of the ADC and simply restart, and the ADC will resume from where it was.

Your download got really slow after a while?

It is not uncommon for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to throttle your download speed. Also, you may have reached your daily limit or bandwidth limit for a certain time period. There is nothing Audiobro can do about this, but there may be a few things you can try:

Pause the ADC (using the pause button) and then quit the ADC. Wait five minutes and then re-open the ADC. It should pick up where it left off, often much faster.

Here are a few more suggestions on how users can bypass ISP throttling:

  1. Switch to a Different Server or Port: Sometimes, ISPs throttle specific servers or ports. Switching to a different one might improve your download speed.
  2. Download During Off-Peak Hours: ISPs often throttle speeds during peak usage times. Try downloading late at night or early in the morning when fewer people are online.
  3. Limit Background Usage Ensure that no other devices or applications are consuming bandwidth while you are downloading. This can help allocate more bandwidth to your download.
  4. Upgrade Your Plan If possible, consider upgrading to a higher-tier internet plan that offers more bandwidth and fewer throttling restrictions.

Is the ADC Stuck on Watermarking?

Sorry for any trouble.

If your ADC is stuck on Watermarking, try quitting the ADC and restarting it. It should pick up where it left off.

ADC Won’t Install On My System

The Audiobro Download Center requires macOS 11+ or Windows 10+ to open.

If you have an older operating system, you may use a different system (with a supported operating system) to download. You can then move your libraries to systems with supported older operating systems (varies by library) with a portable drive or over a local network
