Re: 11R SPDIF to MBox 3 Clock Question

With the pirchase of the new unit, I had some free support incidents so I figured I'd see what Avid had to say. This is their response: "Hi, The Mbox 3 will not use the S/Pdif input unless it has it's clock set to S/Pdif. Check out page 41 of the Mbox User Guide for the details. The clock in both units is comparable so there is no advantage using the Mbox's clock instead o the Eleven Rack's clock. Best regards, Avid/Digidesign Technical SupportHi, The Mbox 3 will not use the S/Pdif input unless it has it's clock set to S/Pdif. Check out page 41 of the Mbox User Guide for the details.

But according to them the clock's are comparable, so I guess it doesn't matter. |

Re: 11R SPDIF to MBox 3 Clock Question
Great thread to clear up the confusion.
Do you still have to set 11R to clock internally with other interfaces, say a Digi002 or even an HD rig? Since I intend to use my Eleven Rack for recording in studios other than my own, will this force you keep changing the clock source? What technically is happening if you were recording a guitar track with 11R rack as the processor and an HD rig as the interface, and you HAD to clock the 11R internally? |

You'll be able to set the 11R clock to external and clock off the HD rig.
