No Sound w/ Dante Virtual Soundcard
I am running a Dante Virtual Soundcard on an iMac with Pro Tools 11. I know that the DVS is working properly and patched correctly because I am receiving signal in another DAW on this computer. But, it doesn't matter what I do, I cannot get anything in Pro Tools. The I/O says aggregate devise, and I can't find anywhere to change that. In the Setup App, under Hardware Setup, I have changed the audio source to each option, but nothing helps. Does anyone have any ideas of what might fix this problem?

Re: No Sound w/ Dante Virtual Soundcard
In the aggregate I/O set up, did you check the input/output assignments that you want Protools to see? you have to make sure that either the DVS is set as the lone interface, or included as part of the aggregate I/O assignments. I had the same problem and it took forever to figure it out.
Also in the DVS set up, I have found that you need to select the 32x32 options for Protools to recognize the DVS (assuming you have the regular version of PT and not an HD version).

Re: No Sound w/ Dante Virtual Soundcard
If I can get protools to recognize the DVS in 32x32, will it ever allow me to record 48 DVS channels, or would I need to upgrade to Pro Tools 11 HD for that?

Re: No Sound w/ Dante Virtual Soundcard
Is the DVS selected in the Playback Engine settings?
You need to change it there before you do anything with the I/O settings. |

Nope on channels. Pro Tools is limited to 32 with an Core Audio interface. If you want to play with Dante with more you channels need to come in via a Focusrite Rednet 5 Dante Interface into a HD Native or HDX card or you could also use a MADI bridge to MADI HD (likely less practical and more expensive). |

Re: No Sound w/ Dante Virtual Soundcard
Hi Guys,
I have been trying to sort a similar problem out for a few days. Pro tools can see DVS and all my outputs are working, but I can't seem to get an input. I've checked though my PT I/o settings and the routing of Dante Controller and as far as I can see everything look correct. Any suggestions? Thanks, Tim |

Not much info here. Folks here cannot guess what you think "looks correct" is. How about posting shots of playback engine and IO input/output/bus dialog panels and the IO selectors on say the mix window track you are trying to use. And what input from what interface, what mic/DI box etc., recording what exactly to what track? And what debugging have you done to confirm there is a signal present at that input... (can you monitor it through hardware monitoring for example). What exactly did you do for a few days? Trash prefs? Default all the IO? Try a new empty session? Reinstall any software? (those are the pretty standard steps you should have tried). |

Re: No Sound w/ Dante Virtual Soundcard
I am using a red 4pre connected to my iMac running PT 12.7 on OS X 10.8.5.
here is a screenshot of the Dante controller set up: Screen Shot 2017-04-16 at 21.15.56.jpg I am running DVS in 32x32 and have selected DVS as my playback device on PT: Screen Shot 2017-04-16 at 21.29.54.png I/O on PT is set to its default, see pics below: Screen Shot 2017-04-16 at 21.25.56.jpg Screen Shot 2017-04-16 at 21.26.04.jpg and my inputs on mix window: Screen Shot 2017-04-16 at 21.25.43.jpg I can see I am getting my input from the meter on my red 4pre and all inputs are working when I am using it via Thunderbolt on my MacBook Pro. I then change the set up to Dante and swap to my iMac. On the iMac I am getting all my outputs, just not my inputs. I have not ran any re installs, I wanted to check first I am set up correctly in the patching or if there are any common mistakes other users had encountered. Hopefully this is enough info thanks |

Re: No Sound w/ Dante Virtual Soundcard
got it sorted, I didn't have the inputs correctly routed on the Focusrite Control.
