Re: Motu 8 pre optical link not recognizing ADA8000

I'm talking about the hardware setup in DP7 not recognizing the ADA. But i'm guessing once i get the other optical link going it will show that its linked on the LED display on the 8pre?

Re: Motu 8 pre optical link not recognizing ADA8000

Alright, didn't know i had to have another optical going from the Motu Out to the ADA In. I will do this...i guess this is also why when i went to audio setup it didn't show anything?
Thanks!

Motu 8 pre optical link not recognizing ADA8000

Hey, I'm trying to use my motu 8 pre as a master and running a ADA8000 optical link out into the 8pre optical link in. I have the ADA8000 set as "slave adat in" on the back of it. The motu 8pre is not recognizing the ADA even on the led display...which i'm guessing should light optical in ...

doubling track w/o delay

Its probably something simple i can do for this...but... When i try copying a vocal track onto another track to double it up...even though it looks like the wav is at the same place, there is a slight delay. Is there a way to get rid of this delay so it sounds just like the natural voice? Do i need ...

Re: DP playing audio backwards?

I'm in the same boat.

I want to take a guitar track and have it reversed for a certain part of the song. I'm running DP7. So the Reverse Plugin will take the whole soundbite and reverse it?

Re: motu8pre daisy chain to mackie 1620 not working?

It is FW400. For some reason i always thought it was FW800. Being a newb i guess. Yeah, my OSX has the latest update, so its all good to go there. The drivers for the mackie are up to date since its based on having hte most current OSX update and I just went to the MOTU site and its up to date as we...

Re: motu8pre daisy chain to mackie 1620 not working?

yeah, daisy channing them the other way is worth a shot. i'll mess with it when i go home tonight. the only thing is about the FW400, the mackie or motu8pre only run FW800. I'm also thinking there is a possibility that a FW cable could be faulty. I have another theory, that i updated my OSX to somet...

Thanks for all the input on the topic. I'm actually mixing everything currently in my bedroom with a 2.1 system (krk 6, krk 10). I have minimal acoustic treatment in the room as well. I'm going to look into the Waves prog and others that were recommended. I have only been personally mixing songs for...

1- Always record at 24 bits.

3- If the product will be leaving the digital path to an analog path during mix or mastering record at 88.2 or 96K.
So, if i'm going to be using hardware compressors, EQ, etc. during mixing...i should record at 96k?

I have a MOTU 8pre, btw.
