Topic: New DAW Win7 64bit w Multiface1 spikes on inputs
Hi, this is my first post in this forum even though I've had my Multiface for almost 10 years, I've never had a problem. I just received my custom built ADK DAW (ill contact them Monday with the issue as well) and its running Win7 64. The first thing I installed was my original Multiface PCI (I had already successfully flash updated the PCI to rev17 on my old DAW), and installed the most current driver 3.27. All went exactly as expected and had no problems. I can open totalmix/DSP and confirm the hardware rev is 17 and the driver is 3.27 and it looks like the driver is working properly (device manager). If I open totalmix I can see my 8 inputs showing the noise floor. (they are displaying -99.05 and fluctuating up a down a bit).
the problem is as soon as I open Cubase 6 or a standalone version of MOTUs MachFive3 I get pops and spikes across all 8 analog inputs in the Multiface, as soon as I close the music software they stop. I can see the spikes in the top input section in totalmix and I can hear them. In Cubase it clips any active inputs in the project. The pops/spikes are random across the channels but also occur in stereo (spike on 5/6 at same time and intensity). Currently these are the only 2 music applications I've installed so far. This is all with nothing connected to the analog inputs on my Multiface breakout box.
any idea what the problem is? thanks for your Time, ekus
