003r w/ Presonus D8 - SYNC issues
I just got the presonus....So I had the Behringher before and it worked like it was supposed to....but the main issue was that i didn't have the PAD on the pre's at all.....And you need them to record drums.
So I got one really cheap....so here is the deal. It does work but it won't sync with WrdCLK. With 003r setup as Mstr and internal clock setup...with optical as ADAT (not SPDIF).... Out of 003r to D8 with the BNC (known working) Out of the D8 with Optical Cable (known working) and the Presonus's clock setup on the front panel setup as EXT CLK Source Also no sync lights while trying to sync it with WC on the front panel of the 003. I get nothing - zilch - nada........(Dynamic mik connected to X1) - If i change the hardware setup to ADAT sync....(via lightpipe) and set the presonus to Internal 44.1 it will pass audio over to PT.....and it get my little LED friend up front on my 003r that shows ADAT SYNC..... If I change to my Beringer setup I can sync with WC and all audio passes but i don't recall seeing my LED...... Does anyone else have any problems with the D8 and WC sync'n????? or is the D8 just screw'd up? I don't think i want to use the clock of the D8....I would feel more comfortable using the 003r, seems like it would cause less jitter/artifacts issues. PT9 w/TKFnct |
Anybody??

Maybe you got a bad D8? I had one in my setup and clocked all to a Lucid GenX192 master clock(with wordclock) and it worked perfectly.

Re: 003r w/ Presonus D8 - SYNC issues
I had an 003 Rack+ and D8 and when I tried to sync the 003 to the D8 via ADAT I got clicks and pops with the sample rate set correctly. So I actually was forced to use the 003 as master set to internal and sync the D8 to it via WordClock - but it worked perfectly that way at least. So yeah, sounds like something may be wrong with your D8.

Yeah that is what i was afraid of.......I took it back to the guy and he actually gave me my money back......(I can't believe it)
He said everything worked perfectly and he was using WC to sync and that digi stuff was crap and that is why it didn't sync and on and on.....I just kept nodding till he put the money in my hand......Thank God. I just ordered a new one off ebay....it came with a 2 AT mik's 2020/2021 i think. Pretty nice deal for 400. I thought i had found the steal at 250 off craigslist but I was glad I got that money back. Albee, Just a quick question do you or have you noticed any sound improvment by utilizing a standalone (not to mention nicer) WC for your projects? Im sure you have a/b stuff.......it's supposed to improve it but i wondered how you liked it.......(more gear to the wish list) |
Re: 003r w/ Presonus D8 - SYNC issues
I would call the improvement subtle at best. Maybe a Big Ben would net a bigger change:rolleyes:. In any case, since 8.0.1, the clock reverts to internal on every boot of the computer, so if you clock to anything external, be prepared to reset the clock each day(I leave a Post-It hanging on one of my screens).
