Topic: RPM, no audio out of 1/2 or 3/4, only headphone outs work
Hello,
I just hooked my RPM to a new PCIe card in a Mac Pro.
2x2.8 Quad Core Xeon
OS 10.5.8
18gig RAM
RME Driver v2.67
RPM (Slot-2) Serial # 22901840 Rev18 (just upgraded today)
I have been using this unit until now with an Express card and MacBook Pro almost exclusively on headphones in a vinyl ripping station. It's now being used in a video editing suite driving some nearfield Event monitors and as a rudimentary mic pre for scratch VO recording.
Set to 48Khz or 44.1Khz I can't get any signal out of 1/2 or 3/4 (AN1 AN2 AN3 AN4 in matrix) There is signal there bouncing on all outs and the headphones have signal but nothing is reaching the speakers. I've switched cables around and the speakers work as they were being driven by the onboard Mac audio before with no problem.
The RPM was a open box used unit from Synthax 2 years ago. I was wondering if it's possible that it's been modified or tweaked (are there any internal switches?) It's also possible that the outs have never worked as I have only used it in headphone mode for the last year and a half.
If it's faulty where do/can I send it back to get it fixed? I know that Synthax is no longer the Canadian distributor. Too bad 'cause Jeff was awesome to deal with.
