Topic: Raydat Issue with SSL and Lynx
Hi Guys,
I am facing some troubles my RME Raydat and extension module (RME Word Clock Module). Sorry for this long post but I need to explain it somehow.
My setup is as follow -> Lynx Hilo -> RME Raydat & Word Clock Module -> SSL AlphaLink
Raydat is running on a PC with Windows 7.
The sampling frequency is set by the Lynx Hilo, that is acting as the master clock. The Raydat (slave) receive the clock from the Hilo.
The Raydat then is passing the clock to a SSL AlphaLink (slave of the Raydat).
And then the SSL AlphaLink returns the clock to the Lynx Hilo (closes the loop).
So when I am setting 44Khz or 48Khz on the Lynx Hilo, immediately the Raydat and the SSL are set to 44. Same from 48, so it looks ok.
However:
(1) If I try to choose another value other than 44 or 48, say 88 or 96 for instance from the Hilo, it doesn’t work – the Raydat will always display either 48 or 44. In other word I cannot work on 96 KHz when I should be able to.
(2) For some reason on the Hammefall DSP Setting, inside Windozs, the key word Sample Rate is written in Red – not sure it is normal. Since the documentation is not aligned with the latest version of drivers I don’t know.
Also I can only set the clock source to TCO otherwise it won’t work at all, I mean any of the others options (Sync in etc..) will lead to a 32Khz current sample rate. But I don’t have any TCO module so I am not sure it makes sense in the first place.
(3) Last and very annoying – when working on 48Khz, I may or not may be able to listen to any music through windows media player – only within a DAW but it is very irregular, sometime I can, sometime I can’t. I cannot, I have to reboot the machine, no matter what.
I am in middle of a recording session – any help/suggestions would be more than welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Luc
