When I use a External S/PDIF FX unit with My Digi 001 , I get a Feedback Loop. What am I doing wrong?
1.Go under “Setups” and choose “Playback Engine”
2..Click “YES” to confirm.
3.Make sure your “OPTICAL” format is ” ADAT”
4.Disable (take away the check) “Enable S/PDIF Mirroring”. (This was causing Feedback Loop!)
5.Click “Done”
6.Make sure the “Sync Mode” is set to “Internal” .
7.Click “OK”
8.If you get a message stating your I/O setup has changed , click “OK”
9.Now go to “Setups” and choose “I/O Setup”.
10.Click on the “Input” tab in the top left corner , and then hit the ” Default” button in the bottom left corner.Do this for the “Output” , “Insert” and “Bus” tabs as well.This will correctly rename all of your I/O’s.
11.When done ,press “OK” button.
12.Now go under “File” , choose “New Track” and create 1 “Stereo Aux Input”
13.Look at the Mix Window and find the new Aux Track. Assign its INPUT to “S/PDIF”.Its output should renmain at “Analog 1+2”
14.Now you can use the sends on any Audio or Aux tracks and set them to “Interface–S/PDIF”
15.The Send Fader will determine how much signal is sent to the FX unit.Your FX unit should be set to 100% Wet.
16.Make sure you FX unit’s Clock is set to “External”. This way you wont get any Clicks and pops when using the FX device.
17If you cant set your FX unit’s clock to External ,you can change ProTools “Sync Mode” (Found under Setups , then Hardware” to “S/PDIF”. Now the Digi001 will clock to the FX Units clock.
18.Enjoy!!
