Select the FF400 as the output device in your software app and/or Control Panel > Sound menu.

Windows 7 calls the first pair (AN 1+2) Speakers.

Re: no sound from the ff 400

Do you mean to "speakers (2-RME FireFace 400)"?
I try it and it doesn't work

Re: no sound from the ff 400

i just found this link http://www.rme-audio.de/forum/viewtopic.php?id=7304
...but the guy who posted the legacy driver link doesnt work.
maybe this is the problem?

Re: no sound from the ff 400

No. Try using the external power supply if you currently use bus power, or vice versa.

Re: no sound from the ff 400

I need to buy power external supply? What is the vice versa?!

Re: no sound from the ff 400

I spent 8 hours to figure out what is the problem,I spent almost 1800$ on this soundcard and now you are telling me to go buy external supply power?!

Re: no sound from the ff 400

No need to buy anything. Have a look inside the package, the external PSU is included.
However, since the analog inputs show incoming signal, the unit does seem to be working fine.

I would suspect a configuration issue of sorts, but you can always try the PSU anyhow.

Re: no sound from the ff 400

I did not realize the unit is brand new.

Reset the Fireface Mixer (hold CTRL and click Preset 1 button), in case the routing scheme is corrupted. Next, please try a quick loopback test, connect analog out of the FF400 to analog in on the FF400. Then check the Fireface Mixer and see if output signal shows up in the top row (inputs). If so, then the problem is not in the FF400, and you'll have to explain more about the monitoring system.

Re: no sound from the ff 400

i did everything you mention and it still doesnt work.

there is anyway that my motherboard doesnt fit? or BIOS problem?

my motherboard is http://www.gigabyte.com/products/produc … id=3768#ov

i install the lastest drivers.

Re: no sound from the ff 400

The pictures in your post #3 show working playback...
When you say "no sound", where is it that you would like to hear sound? What ist connected to which outputs of the FF400?

Please give us more than "doesn't work" and "no sound". We can't see what you are doing.
