Re: Pro Tools HDX2 working on new Mac Pro
I ordered the Belkin cables but none fit the HDX or the power supply to the mother board.
Thankfully, I saved the original box that the HDX came with. It contained a cable that worked.

Re: Pro Tools HDX2 working on new Mac Pro
Is anyone running HDX2 on a new Mac Pro with a MTRX, and having weird issues having to restart Pro Tools when changing sample rates? (Specifically, it thinking that the number of interfaces has changed?)

Re: Pro Tools HDX2 working on new Mac Pro
Hi.
I just received this statement from Avid support relating to slot order and cables. The one with 3 connectors can be in the top slots 5-7. This is not qualified, but it is working (that is how we ran at NAMM). To run in the lower slots, you need an 8 pin to 6 pin cable from the Belkin cable lit from the Apple Store (only place to get it), and also a large 6 pin to 3 smaller connectors from Sonnet. |

The upper Aux power socket on the motherboard is 6 pin, the lower two pairs are 8 pin. What I’m wondering is - are the Aux power sockets tied to PCIe slots? In other words - is the top 6 pin Aux power socket tied to PCIe slots 5 to 7? I was planning on using slot 5 for the HDX1 card since the Avid qualified slot 2 is blocked by a W5700X GPU. Slot 3 - Sonnet m.2 4x4 because that has x16 lanes direct to the CPU

Re: Pro Tools HDX2 working on new Mac Pro
My HDX card has a 4-pin connector as shown in the attached photo.
I see mention of 6-pin and 8-pin connectors, but no 4-pin. I received my Belkin cable kit... no 4-pin connectors. My MacPro is on order... I'm curious how HDX will get its power. |

This, of course, is the configuration with installing in the Avid Recommended Slot 2 (second from the bottom)

My situation is that I have an HDX-2 rig in a 2012 Cheese grater Mac, but i am 99.999% sure that I do NOT have the various other cables that came with the HDX cards originally. So I only have the cables that are currently in use in the 2012 HDX-2 rig in my cheese grater. any guidance as to what cables I'll need? It sounds as if I'll need the Belkin kit, but how do I survive without the various extra unused cables from the original HDX card box? How would I obtain what I'll be missing? thanks. |
