Topic: Digico SD10 and madiface issues

Hello!
  I cannot seem to get my digico SD10 to output into my madiface express card unit. My configuration is...

Mac mini OSX 10.8
Sonnettech express to thunderbolt adapter
Madiface

I installed the latest driver from the website and ran the flash update tool, and still nothing. I know the rack is outputting MADI because it works fine with the console, but I don't see any input in total mix, nuendo or reaper.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Irrelevant. What does the RME Settings dialog show?

I'm not in front of the system right now, but from what I remember, under "Input Status" there was no channel format shown (it was blank) and the sync said "no lock"

Means the card did not receive any MADI signal...check again, and note the input switch on the front...

Re: Digico SD10 and madiface issues

Matthias,
   Thank you for your prompt replies. I did confirm that the input switch was set properly (coax in my case). I have actually pulled the main MADI line connecting my SD Rack (digico's I/O rack) to my console. I know that line is carrying valid MADI because when I plug it into my console, it works perfectly fine. When I remove that line from the console and connect directly from the SD Rack's main MADI output to the Madiface, I get nothing. I've tried several other ports on the SD Rack and SD10 as well, and I get nothing from any of them....

Please try a similar loopback test with the Madiface (set Clock Mode to master/internal).

Daniel,
   Thank you. Just to clarify, are you saying I should attempt to playback from the computer/madiface into my console? If so, I'll give that a try tomorrow and report back...

No. He meant you connect output of the MADIface directly to the input of the MADIface. Just to see if a signal is shown in the Settings dialog then.
