Xmon and new firmware causing other problems??

[mtung]

I have received a new Xmon with the updated software that fixes the headphone dim talkback debacle, but there seems to be a problem with the monitoring in the main monitors. Mono doesn't work! Since this is my FIFTH Xmon, I would hope that the fault was somewhere in the wiring of the studio. So off I went to open up that Dsub connectors that connect the inpust and outputs of the Xmon and checked that they were all correct. They were. I also checked the I/O setup in ProTools, Everything is hunky dory, L/R comes out on 1 and 5. In ProTools, if I pan a track to the left, it comes out the left. If I pan right, it comes out of the right speaker. BUT NOW, pan a signal hard to one side and hit the MONO button. On my Dcommand, the signal stays hard panned and gets dimmed a couple db. The left side seems to dim a bit more than the right and the left side makes a click which i presume is a relay. I don't remember any cllicking before.

Can anyone else confirm this problem I'm experiencing? I really hope it's me doing something wrong.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Can anyone with the "updated" X-mon confirm that they do not or do have this mono issue?? Anyone?

My XMon which was factory replaced, not updated my me, does MONO the stereo buss. XMon formware is version 11.

Thanks!

It's probably my fault somewhere. I will check again that everything is correct.

Just to further verify...I just double-checked our D-Command for the mono issue you described, but found no trouble with it.

I found my fault in the wiring. No problem with the X-mon. It is fixed now and everything works. Whew...
