MENACING DILEMMA! CMD 8 + HD3
Helllo again,
I have aproached you guys with this same problem not tot long ago. So basically I have an HD3 system, and i wanted to open up a studio in my apartment. You know, make some cash for producing some pseudo hip-hop and what-not. So i bought a Command 8, you know...FOR LOOKS and for the ease of automation, blah blah blah I CAN NOT GET THIS THING TO WORK WITH PRO TOOLS!!! my 192 I/O says that there is output on channels 1 and 2. so i have a snake running out of the digital Out of the I/O INTO THE COMMAND 8, right? I have XLR to 1/4 converters on the ends of the snake, into the mixer but no matter where i Put line 1 and 2, whether it's the input, or the output NO SOUND is coming out of my monitors! I'm a certified pro tools engineer, SO I SHOULD KNOW WHAT TO DO! and i don't! This is stalling me from opening up the studio! And I know it's probably so simple. I think I've tried everything! Thank you everybody, in advance. |

Re: MENACING DILEMMA! CMD 8 + HD3
I'm with the second poster, in that it sounds like you are trying to run your 1&2 outputs from the Digital I/O card on your 192 I/O into the Analog inputs on your C|8.
I have an HD2 system with the C|8 and I do the following: 1. Analog outputs 1&2 go to the main inputs (L&R respectively) on the C|8 (with XLR to TRS converters). 2. Main out (L&R) go directly to my powered monitors. This setup works fine for me. If it is not working for you check: 1. The analog outs on you 192 I/O are plugged into the main inputs on the C|8. There is another pair of inputs for an external audio source. 2. Check in the hardware settings in PT that your main outputs are 1&2 analog on your 192 and check that your session is routing to those outputs. 3. Check that the Mute button or the External button are not lit up on your C|8. If your setup still isn't working, try plugging a synth or something into the main inputs on the C|8 and turn on the demo song and see if you can get sound to your monitors. |

The Command/8 is a midi over usb device. The audio inputs are for monitor only. They didn't cover this in your certification classes?
