WOOOOWWWWW!!!!

Thank you very much, Matthias, and happy new year!

Ciao,
Marco

Awesome Matthias. This is great.
Would still love to be able to get all the functions working in 'Playback' mode (ie Spec Analyser etc... I have the level meters all working and can get the signal if I use the loopback in Fireface Mixer), but I am sure you are already working something out for that in the future.
Cheers,
matt

I just noticed that it is the same for the PC version at the moment anyway, but I hadn't noticed as I am feeding the inputs via light pipe from my ff800 to the Multiface (in the PC). The loopback method is fine, but I need to be a bit careful when it comes to opening up inputs in the various audio apps I use ;-)

+1 for playback mode!

Thanks to the whole RME Team for keeping up the excellent work.
Again a big thank you to Matthias for releasing the alpha version
to the public, even if it is not finished with record mode etc,
it is already pretty useful for me and working very good.

Now why can I only run inputs on this? is there a workaround to monitor outputs as well? without routing an output to an input of course:-)

Can you post a screenshot on how it looks like?

For me the Spec Analyser doesn't work good...
It's random, like some Christmas Tree..

This is a bit vague, can everyone please post their driver version and be as specific as possible. RME have been kind enough to give us an ALPHA version of this software and need usable feedback to make it better faster.

Yanis, what signal through digicheck? An input, output, playback?
"Selecting SPDIF from the dropdown menu" Which drop down menu? If your referring to "Input Select" in the digicheck "Input Device Setup", what does that have to do with using a digital connection to your monitors?

Please also be aware that Spectrum Analyzer functionality is limited to using Totalmix in LOOPBACK MODE at this stage, refer to the Totalmix user manual to learn how to use this.

You need to be much more specific, driver version, hardware and firmware etc.

Or don't use the Alpha, wait for the release version.

thanks Yanis.
There seems to be limited ability to use playback through digicheck at this stage. As it's an alpha release, I would suspect that playback functionality will be available soon. I'm under the impression that digicheck is limited to use on the inputs only (plug in a mic) at the moment. However, if you understand the loopback mode of totalmix, you can get the scopes working for playback. Have a look at the manual in totalmix, it explains loopback mode (and it's dangers!).

Thank you!!
This is a great news for us, intel-mac professionals!!
Keep doing this great job on digicheck!!

so if i get it right, the PCIe versions should be working with this alpha of DC?

thanks

Looking forward the HDSP PCI support, fingers crossed.

Thanks MC, that means that I technically should be able to enjoy DC already, that's great news! I will check for driver and firmware versions and report here later. I admit that I might not be 100% up to date and will update if required.

Another problem could be that I have one of the first few ExpressCards said to be faulty regarding the serial number. I haven't sent it in for repair because I didn't  encounter any problems so far. Maybe this is the reason for DC not working with my card?

Woo Hooo.... my PC has been put to bed. I no longer need it for anything now that we have DC for Mac. Thanks Matthias

I am up to date now (driver 1.73, fw rev 17/ExprCard), but still DC refuses to offer me my multiface I as a selection within the "Input Device Setup". I've been waiting for DC on mac for only 3 years but just can't wait to have it running...

I wonder why the only selection I get is "Fireface 400". I used to run a fireface 400 on this system and thought I erased all ff400 driver data. Is it possible that there are any ff400 components left that "block" DC from seeing the multiface? Probably that's not an issue, just a thought - you never know...

Thanks RME still, I'm sure DC will happen sometime for me.

Great! I installed driver v2.66 and DC works now!

I was using the other driver v1.73 because I thought that was the right driver for my system. It's the only one that mentions the ExpressCard:

A bit confusing but now I know better! DC on my mac - what a memorable day...:-)

Thanks,

Felix

I just installed it and here's whats happening. I'm running OSX 10.5.6 with a FF800 with the latest drivers. The FF800 is connected via FW800 and is running at 48k. I have 2 ADI-8 connected to the FF800 via ADAT. Both the ADI8 are in clock input mode. When I start DC, it un-syncs both the ADI8, and I have to power cycle the FF800 to get them to re-sync. It also changes my in level from hi gain to -4dbu. On the total mix, ins 18 through 28 show noise. Thats all the info I have for now. Thanks!

Hi, please be gentle with me

Its been a while since i've used digicheck (since i moved to Logic to be exact) and im a little rusty. I used to run it in playback mode i guess, i don't even remember setting anything in the inputs - id just solo a kick drum for instance and use the graphs to EQ... I am getting no movement in any functions, even when i run something through the inputs (say my old E6400 through 7-8). Could anyone please give me a newbie guide on how to get playback working? i've read the loopback section of the manual, ctrl clicked the boxed and still nothing... I'm using a Fireface 400 with the latest drivers... Many thanks for the Alpha though!

Hi :-O

Any Way thanks for the update , DigiCheck is One of my "Essential" Tools
