Topic: MADIface USB with Soundcraft Compact Stagebox

Hi, New to this forum (and RME) so apologies if this comes across as a newbie question....

We have a MADIface USB connected to laptop which connects to a Soundcraft Compact Stagebox via optical which in turn is connected to a Soundcraft Vi1 via Cat5

As described in page 10 of :

The laptop sees the madi channels of the RME interface and the desk sees the madi channels of the card fitted to the compact stage box - however, there is no data passing beteen the two. I have no 'signal' lights on the MADIface or the optical card Compact Stagebox. Thought is could be the optical cable but that worked on a different setup so assuming that's OK (not sure how to test it).

Anyone successfully have this setup working?

Thanks,

Dave

In and out reversed?

Check the MF USB by connecting in to out with clock set to Internal.

Yep - they were reversed - many thanks. I'd been staring at this for ages and missed the obvious.

Just a short question about same configuration.

Can you control the gains and phantom power of the compact stagebox via for example totalmix?
