Topic: I can´t change the volume

Hi everyone,

I have been having a problem for a while now. When I turn the volume potentiometer, no matter if it is on main out or phones, the volume does not change. It makes a feint, but stays at the same volume.

The only option I have is when I press vol and it is on the linked screen, then, if I press encoder 1 and turn that wheel, then I can change the main out volume and the same happens with the phones volume if I use encoder 2, but I can't regulate the volume as before, just using the volume potentiometer.

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Check manual, "lock volume".

Re: I can´t change the volume

Which device is this? Does the display show a volume change?

ADI-2 Pro FS
when I try to change the volume, the numbers blink as if they are going to change, but return to the same value. The same thing happens if I try to change the panning.

Re: I can´t change the volume

It's like it's all in lock, but it's not.
The firmware is at the latest version.

Tried toggling the setting on and off again?

Re: I can´t change the volume

Yes, I have tried it.
In lock, the values do not flicker and remain fixed.

Re: I can´t change the volume

Does this happen with and without connection to a computer? Is the firmware up to date?

Re: I can´t change the volume

Yes, this happens connected via USB or not connected.
As I said before, it is fully up to date.
It is something very strange, since this has happened from one day to the next one, without any reason or changes.

Re: I can´t change the volume

Try a reset:

While powering up, push and hold the VOL button (NOT the VOLUME dial) and Encoder 1, until you see the message: “Reset done“.

User Setups and EQ Presets are not deleted.


Or a full factory reset:

While powering up, push and hold the VOL button (NOT the VOLUME dial) and Encoder 1 and Encoder 2, until you see the message: “Reset done“.

All user Setups and EQ Presets are deleted.
Take notes before, or store them through the Remote App, if you want to keep some.

Re: I can´t change the volume

Are you playing back DSD by any chance with direct DSD option? I believe volume control is disabled in this case.
