I/O Problem
 

Hello,

I have a problem with my Apollo uad quad and my PT 12.

My mic is coming in the 3rd pre-amp, i see it in vu-meter of "console" (application for this apollo), i can hear that, it's ok in 3rd.
My input patch is clean, 1 in 1, 2 in 2...

But when I want to record in PT, it is coming in "line 5" which is habitually the line input. I try to exchange input from the bottom of the apollo and.. when i put my mic in 1, in PT is coming in mic 3... Like if the patch do +2 in input..

Did you have ever seen this problem ? It's the first time i have this.

I try to check with other daw, I dont have the problem..

Thanks,

Alexis

Do you have the aggregate device selected for the Playback Engine in Setup? Also, UAD has a Pro Tools mode, but I believe you only need to use that if using hardware inserts.

Re: I/O Problem
 

Quit PT.
open Console and in the hardware setup area put it in PT Mode.
launch PT.
go to I/O setup and in the bus tab hit default.

this should "reset" everything

Thanks a lot !

It was in "PT mode in", i've turned off and now it's ok ! Mic 1 is in Mic 1 for PT!

Do you know what is PT mode and why it make that happen ?

Sorry for my english, I hope you will understand.

Re: I/O Problem
 

PT Mode reorders the I/O to match inputs and outputs for outboard hardware inserts. Drew's resetting defaults should have worked also. If you ever need to use hardware inserts keep that in mind.

Thanks.

I think i have this problem now. I plug a bass in Hi-Z one, PT receive that on HI-Z one but now, when I put output 1, there's no signal in this output. Is there any mistake ?

Bass > HI Z-one > Input PT Hi Z-one > Output 1 in PT : No signal in line 1 behind the apollo.

Re: I/O Problem
 

I think you're mistakingly thinking that signals go from Console to PT and then back.

Console is your "input console". Once the signal is in PT, it will be processed and mixed there and does not need to come back into a channel in Console.

So I think my question is :

How to correctly rout my output 1 from PT to the line 1 of the apollo ?

Re: I/O Problem
 

Not quite sure what the issue is, but try resetting the I/O setup by clicking the default button on the Input, Output and Bus tabs individually. I think option-click any default button will reset all, but don't know if that's still available since I/O setup has changed.

Why? What are you trying to accomplish?

How? Search the Apollo manual for Virtual Inputs.
