Audio records fine, only "hiss" on playhback????
My setup:
iMac 3.06, 2gb ram, nvidia 8800gs 512, Leopard 10.5.8 LaCie 4 big Quadra firewire drive M-Audio ProFire 2626, vers. 2.2.4 PT M-Powered 8.0.1 Successfully recorded 20 seconds of audio using microphone, input 1. I can hear the audio while recording, see the waveforms, no problems so far. Stop the recording, waveforms are there, all is fine so far. Press play for playback, nothing but a constant hissssssssssssssssssss. No recorded audio is heard what so ever. All Hiss. Troubleshooting steps taken: -If I navigate to the session audio folder, the audio recorded fine. I can play the audio clips (in finder) with no problems. This tells me the hiss is not recording. -I have trashed all preferences according to digi instructions (twice) -I have all the latest versions, drivers, etc. (described above) -I have tried several firewire chain combinations: FW400 from iMac to 2626 unit, then chain the drive FW400 from 2626 unit. AND: FW400 from iMac to 2626 unit and FW800 from iMac to drive. Hiss occurs either way. -Turned off airport, bluetooth, ethernet, firewire networking, energy saver -Deleted databases and volumes -disabled spotlight indexing on audio drive -rebooted, rebooted, rebooted I am at a loss. Can anyone help? Did I miss a step? I promise I searched the DUC before posting. If I missed a thread, I'm sorry. Send me a link to the thread if there is one. Thanks in advance Jason |

Re: Audio records fine, only "hiss" on playhback????
An added note,
I just tried recording in Soundtrack Pro using the ProFire 2626, everything worked great. Records and plays back with no issues. This tells me it's a PT M-Powered issue, not an M-Audio ProWire 2626 hardware issue. Any suggestions? Thanks again, Jason |
