Re: No sound from HD Omni but output meters show signal

Thanks for your suggestions, but this is nothing to do with the mute switch. Turning the mute switch on or off made no difference - no sound came out of the Omni even though the mute switch was off...

Re: No sound from HD Omni but output meters show signal

Yes, thanks, I checked all that. In the end I shut everything down, left it for ten minutes, restarted and amazingly the Omni started outputting sound! A mystery.

Re: No sound from HD Omni but output meters show signal

Yes, Pro Tools itself is working, and the Omni is receiving the signal and showing it on its output meters, but it won't output the sound.

Anyone using 11.1 with Mavericks 10.9.1?

My iMac keeps nagging me to install Mavericks 10.9.1, but it's not qualified by Avid yet for Pro Tools 11.1. Has anyone updated to 10.9.1 and is Pro Tools 11.1 working ok with it?

With one license, can I install Pro Tools 11 HD on two computers, one not HD?

I have Pro Tools 11.1 HD on an iMac with an HDX card in a Magma Thunderbolt chassis and an Omni. Would the HD download also install on a new Mac laptop for use with a 3rd generation MBox Pro, using...

Re: Magma Expressbox 3T fan noise

Magma have kindly provided me with a replacement fan free of charge, however it is slightly more noisy than the original because the replacement fan has a specific dominant frequency, which is...

If only I'd seen this first:

Avid admit it's noisy.

But long Thunderbolt and Avid cables to get the EB3T out of the mixing room are not going to be...

Re: Magma Expressbox 3T fan noise

Thanks for your comments, depressing though they are. One of the Magma website videos implies, but does not explicitly claim, that you can use the EB3T with a laptop. They don't give any warnings...

Re: Magma Expressbox 3T fan noise

Re: Upgrading RAM on iMac

You've got to check your manual to see what you can upgrade to. I have a 2012 iMac, 3.1GHZ Intel Core i5 and the maximum I could install was 16GB. Look on YouTube for videos on how to do it. It was...

Pro Tools 10 - plugins missing at first

This is a word of warning about the need to install PT10 and other related software in the correct order. I just bought an Mbox Pro (3rd generation) bundled with PT9 with a free upgrade to PT10. I...

Re: Selling PT8 HD and getting PT10 & Mbox Pro - mad or wise?

@ Roulette Records

I will give the Mbox challenge another listen on my O300D monitors. If I really can't hear a difference then that will explain why you are a pro audio engineer and I am a...

Smile Re: Selling PT8 HD and getting PT10 & Mbox Pro - mad or wise?

Thanks for the comments. As I don't need much I/O at the moment I will sell my PCIx HD2 rig and buy the PT10 / Mbox Pro bundle. That way I can work on mixing and writing with the benefit of new plug...

Re: Selling PT8 HD and getting PT10 & Mbox Pro - mad or wise?

Thanks for the advice. The £8,000 figure is for trading in the HD2 PCIx cards and the 96 I/O for an HDX plus Omni system: it's £5,278 for the trade in/upgrade, then another £2,700 for a new Mac Pro...

Selling PT8 HD and getting PT10 & Mbox Pro - mad or wise?

I would be grateful for a second opinion on the logic of my thinking. I have a dual 2GHz G5 PPC running OS 10.5.8, HD2 Accel PCIx cards, Digi 96 I/O and a Mytek stereo 96 D/A, all items vintage 2004,...
