Okay so I have the RCAs going to and from the Digi002r.

Can y'all help me get this config'd.

Many thanx in advance.

So I have my spdif i/o connected to the 002r i/o.

Akai on stereo out. Pt stereo audio track inputs set to 17/18(spdif) and I dont get anything in pt.

Also, I'm not getting any signal into the mpc from pt via the digital input.

wtf...

Are you syncing the audio interface to spdif?

Instead of wondering, you should be reading your manual.

Digital outs mirror the mainouts and are always on.
It's in your manual somewhere.


SPDIF has it's own spec where it deserves SPDIF spec cables and NOT regular RCA cables. YOu CAN use them though you will NOT be in SPDIF specs. 44khz digital is the signal that coes out the SPDIF. It is NOT, I repeat it is NOT an anaolg signal and it won't work unless the gear connected to the other end is not receiving/transmitting a 44khz signal.

Read your manuals, and/or visit tweakheadz.com for guides.

Duh...

Okay, how about someone running PT 7.0 or higher....

Any settings in PT I might be overlooking?

Under "Hardware settings" I have it set to RCA(Spdif) and not optical.
