Re: Anyone using a ART Digital MPA with their 002 console? HELP!!!
I bet you haven't set the clock source right Go into Setup>Hardware and check these 2 things;
#1- Optical=ADAT and SPDIF=RCA #2- Clock Source=SPDIF Whenever you connect more than one device via digital connections(exactly what this calls for), there MUST be only 1 master clock source, and all other devices must slave to that master. In this case, the ART will be the master, so make SURE the sample rate on the ART matches your sessions(most of us have made this mistake once). Keep in mind that Pro Tools, depending on the version, may forget the clock source setting each time you power up the system(I kept a Post-it on my screen edge reminding me to set clock source. After a few weeks, it got to be second nature

What is weird is that when I set the digital rate to 44.1 on the MPA I have the noise problem (The session is 44.1) when I set the MPA to 48 it works! All I can think is the knob on the front of the MPA is 1 setting ahead. (Maybe the pot rotated over the years) Anyway I opened it up & it has a nice set of Mullards & sounds much better that pres in my 002 2 extra channels of input that sounds great to my ears not bad for $200 including shipping. I was thinking I might go in rotate the the pot to the proper position. I am not sure if its mounted to front panel or a PC board but for now I just make a note in my head thats its 1 setting ahead. Thanks again! |
