Hi all,
I just picked up a new AES16e. I'm trying to use it with Logic, a Cranesong HEDD, and a Benchmark DAC1. My computer is a Mac Pro 2 X 2 GHz Dual Core Intel Xeon. Operating system is 10.5.8 I am using the 1.0 Build 49 driver and the 11.1 firmware. SSD system disc.
I've done some searching around but couldn't find the answer to my issue.
Here is the long and short of my problem. I want to clock the card to the Cranesong. This set-up is to facilitate processing through an analog loop, and monitoring through the Benchmark. Set up:
Digital out 1 (AES16e)> Benchmark DAC1
Digital out 2 (AES16e) > HEDD AES in
Digital in 1 (AES16e) > HEDD AES out
wordclock out HEDD > wordclock in (AES16e)
Let's say I'm set to 48 KHz on the HEDD, and the card is set to clock to "external." The "external" on the Lynx Mixer is reading 48 KHz, but the "measured rate" says 96 KHz, and the "channel status" rate says 88.2 Khz.This is with Logic not even launched. When launched, I can pass signal through everything this way properly, but it will periodically "pop" and reset the clock and unlock it for a few moments ("working...") No good.
If I change to 88.2 on the HEDD, everything reads fine. If I switch to 96KHz, it looks good, but the "channel status" still reads 88.2. If I switch to 44.1 KHz, the measured rate says 88.2 KHz. Again, this is with Logic closed.
I've reinstalled the drivers, reseated the card, multiple restarts, all that. I could update to 10.6 and then update the drivers/firmware, but I'm trying to not do that and render some plugins dead. I will do that as a last resort.
I also tried switching to syncing to "digital in 1," but had to restart. Now, it is not reading ANY sampling rate on the digital in 1 in the mixer.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
