Monitor clipping with no signal input.
I'm new to pro tools. I'm sorry in advance. Ive searched youtube and posts to find a solution for my problem and i've got nowhere for 3 days.
As you can see from the pics below, even without a signal being sent to the input, the output from pro tools DAW is clipping. If I just use the scarlett software without having pro-tools open, i can get it to work fine as far as hearing my guitar through the monitor within the scarlett. When I try to open it in pro-tools, i immediately get the noise as soon as i activate a input channel on my new track. I've tried erasing all the I/O in protools and starting over. that didn't work. I reset to default, that didn't work. HELP!! I've attached pics of my I/O settings hoping it is a simple fix that someone with experience can show me. I am running this on a Dell inspiron13, I76500 2.5ghz, 8gb ram, windows 10 64bit. I just re-downloaded the software yesterday, and ran updates just in case. my scarlett was also just downloaded and updated yesterday (I deleted everything and tried to start over). the settings on my computer audio are all set to the scarlett for recording and playback. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nAi...ivRx6932JNGmcZ https://drive.google.com/file/d/18Mz...RRMrmdctoH4tOu https://drive.google.com/open?id=13J...rQ2IjFs9gFKPjo https://drive.google.com/open?id=1r4...ACbaxwj6WPz-pV Last edited by rbedwards3; 05-14-2018 at 04:23 PM.

Re: Monitor clipping with no signal input.
I only see signal in the page titled scarlett mix control , not in the pro tools window. I don't think you need to use mix control with pro tools , usually with focusrite you just use their ASIO driver to run pro tools through.

Re: Monitor clipping with no signal input.
Someone said it looked like a feedback loop, which is exactly what it sounds like and looks like. I think maybe in my scarlet control I have something routed incorrectly.

Re: Monitor clipping with no signal input.
Your ProTools settings look fine. As said above, don't try to use Scarlett mix control when you are using ProTools.
