Topic: ADI-8 QS failing WCK output?
For some time, my previously stable system has been occasionally losing sync. ADI-8 QS is leader, Madiface XT is sync follower over WCK.
The thing is, when I start moving things around to troubleshoot, it kicks back into life and is stable again, till the next time.
Have tried different WCK cables.
Just now, XT would not even see WCK from QS (not even Lock) in it's Input Status panel. Another unit, Ferrofish Pulse would not sync to the ADI-8 QS WCK either.
Then I changed it around so XT is leader, QS is follower over WCK. That was fine.
Then changed it back to my standard: QS is leader, XT is follower over WCK. Now it's working fine too!
RME, does that ring any bells? Could a Wordclock output circuit be intermittent like that? It's been going on for a while, sometimes it's stable for a month.
Thing is, I'm in New Zealand. I don't want to pull it and send it to Innovative Music* in Australia and have them unable to fault it. Any advice?
* I assume they are still RME service agents in Aus/NZ ?
Thanks
