Re: XMon Breakout Cable-DIY

I did a bunch of testing on the cable and found that it worked when pins 13/14 were connected to the left/right connections for the phones and pin 6 was the ground. I thought it odd that it didn’t...

Re: PCIe chassis and NVME recommendations for HDX and M2

Interesting, I just received the Echo I today and there is no switch, I guess I'll discover if it works properly as soon as the new computer arrives. It does say Avid approved on the website so I'd...

Re: PCIe chassis and NVME recommendations for HDX and M2

The duomodo chassis looks great, a very clean solution…albeit a little pricey, but with the 2 NVMe drives in the chassis and being modular I like it. It might be overkill though, as I only have a...

Hey everybody, my Mac tower is in need of replacing so I am planning on moving to a new M1 Max studio or M2 Pro mini. I am looking for recommendations for a Chassis, I assume the Avid one is safe and...

Re: Noisy HDX Cards

if anybody has a picture of the fan with model# etc, maybe you could post it so we can spec replacement options, $60 for a little fan seems crazy.

Re: Hd tdm

Mac Pro 4,1 is perfectly compatible with PT 10HD and the TDM HD cards. You'll need to connect the 192 via digilink cable to the Core card. and connect the PRE's into the 192 with dsubs. The Pre is...

Re: Transition from TDM to HDX or Mac M1 Max

I was circling back to this as I’ve been considering upgrading again, but now considering a Mac Studio. So far it seems as if nobody else has gone from a HD/HDX back to a native rig,(and I don’t mean...

Re: AVID HD io vs Newer

I’ve been thinking about making a change from my HD3 Accel system to an HDX card and a new Mac M1 Max but sticking with my 192’s mainly because of recording latency. I really don’t want to use a 3rd...

Transition from TDM to HDX or Mac M1 Max

I’m curious if people think HDX is still a relevant choice with the introduction of the M1 and M1 Max? HDX has been around for over a decade so how long until it’s replaced with newer tech, HDX...

Re: Tech needed for Digi Pre repair. Front panel stopped working.

Apparently the midi control doesn’t work when the front panel is frozen.

Re: Tech needed for Digi Pre repair. Front panel stopped working.

I should mention, no the panel isn’t locked, it’s definitely on the fritz.

Tech needed for Digi Pre repair. Front panel stopped working.

Can anybody recommend a tech that can repair a Digi pre(older blue model)? Preferable in the So Cal area. Anybody other than Avid as they have an outrageous bench fee.

I’ve been using it for the...

Re: Need a new quieter fan to HD IO..

Is it the 4 pin NF-A8 PWM? If so did you just use two wires to connect it? That version seems to be similar specs to the silenx fan people have used. I may just order a silenx and compare them. How...

Re: Need a new quieter fan to HD IO..

I just swapped the fan in one of my 192's because the original one had started clicking and I was worried about imminent failure. I used a Noctua NF-R8 redux 1800 which is 53.3 m3/h or 31.37 CFM and...

Re: Anybody here have repair experience with the Digi PRE

Well that’s not really the case. I thought all engineers had rework/soldering/desoldering stations, scopes, frequency counters and function generators and at least basic repair skills. Maybe I expect...

Re: Sync I/O MTC not muting when stopped

Apparently the "idle MTC" box when unchecked actually does the trick. So it seems to work the opposite as to how I thought it would. Maybe user error, maybe a bug. Either way I figured I'd post a...
