Topic: RME 32DA - weird behaviours.
Hi everyone,
I got myself a RME 32DA a few months ago and it worked great until last week.
I used to work with an optical cable ( SC connector type ) but I had to change my setup recently for a BNC cable.
It did work ok until now.
Hardware:
- Mac pro Xeon 64 2x3ghz running OSX 10.6.7
- RME 32DA firmware 2.77
Software:
- Ableton 8.2.2
- Cuestation 5.1.0
Here's the situation:
- Small clicks and pops - I matched my sample rate settings ( card / projects ) and kept having clicks.
- The led ( Error ) on the PCI card was red with my BNC cable and I tried again the Optical ( SC connector ) and it turned green again but it didn't changed the weird behaviours that I'm about to describe.
- If I output using channel 1 and 2 it shows ok in the Mixer(totalMix) settings but on the front panel of the card it outputs in channel 1/2/3/4 and it sends audio to my other system and it receives it in 4 different inputs.
-If I output audio from only one channel, it will output in 2 outputs. It always double the outputs.
Here's some screens shots of the mixer / front panel:
On that pic
TotalMix is showing the signal coming from ableton ( which is ok with my routing ) but the Front Panel is outputing something else and the incoming signal in my other application is the same as the one displayed on the front panel ( 3/4-5/6-7/8-9/10 )
On that pic
Ableton is outputing using out # 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 13 and 31/32 as master
On that pic:
My other application receiving the signal from the RME ( signal routed 1 for 1 ( 32 outs > 31 ins ))
it is receiving in inputs 3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10 and not 13 which is my TC.
I honestly don't know what is going on.
The system routing totally switch overnight and no longer works.
Stiil looking for some answers.
Hit me back
Thanks
