Pro Tools 8.0.1 not Detecting Microphone Inputs
I cannot get any levels from my mic pres into PT. I have:
1. PT8.0.1 2. Digi 003 Factory Console (6 mos old) 3. iMac 24" intel w/fast processor and 4G ram (OS 10.5.7 combo update) Shure KSM 27 mic (requires phantom power) AKG 1000s mic (requires phantom power) Shure 58 (does not require phantom power) I have tried all three mics to no avail. I have triple checked all connections and verified that phantom power has been activated. I also tried using different mic inputs in the back of the 003. The mics all work. After discovering this problem, I checked the mics in my Mackie board. I am only using one mic cable to troubleshoot everything. I do have a Digimax FS A/D converter hooked up, but that shouldn't affect anything. I have the PT tracks set for ANALOG recording, not ADAT. This is the first time I've tried to record into PT8. When I had M-Powered and the Project Mix, I was able to record no problem. Thanks in advance for any help! |

Re: Pro Tools 8.0.1 not Detecting Microphone Inputs
Go into I/O setup and reset all your inputs and outputs to default..,

Do your line inputs work?
Does the digimax work?

Re: Pro Tools 8.0.1 not Detecting Microphone Inputs
Yes. The line inputs and Digimax work fine. I've recorded lots of stuff with this setup, but it's all been from instruments. Today is the first time I've tried to record from a microphone (and, now Madonna is getting impatient). Do you think trashing my prefs would help?

I was wondering why mic and line were together, as I always understood that you couldn't have both options at the same time. I just found out from Tech Supt (on the phone) that the lit position means "line" and the unlit position means "mic." That was my problem. Now where did Madonna wonder off to... |
