Topic: Babyface may be fried
Hi folks. Happy Babyface user of more than a decade. But on the weekend I was in Cubase and had a YouTube video playing at the same time and suddenly heard a "pop" sound and the audio stopped. I saw a flash of what appeared to be inputs and outputs going away in Windows at the same time.
Bottom line is, this may be the end of my Babyface. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling, different USB ports , updating FW, still no audio ports showing up in Control Panel. I tried disconnecting the USB cable, uninstalling the software, shut down. Restart and reinstall the software, then reconnect the Babyface, and no joy.
I'm running Windows 10. The "RME Babyface" device shows up correctly in Device Manager, TotalMix installs correctly, and the lights are working on the Babyface. But no audio ports showing up in Windows. No output or input devices found. Sp if there is a HW problem with the Babyface, it's not completely bricked, because the lights are still on. I can even re-flash the firmware.
Does anyone have any ideas I can try? Or should I admit defeat?
