using the headphone output on a 1224??

Post by luteman »

I've been using a 1224 for a while now, but never used the headphone output. After trying to figure it out.....how do you do it? I've routed everthing to the main outs in cuemix but still get nothing on the headphones and the only lights showing are on Analog out 1 and 2...I'm sure people here know how to do this.....any help??

Thanks

I too have never used the headphone out puts. I can't use cuemix since I'm using pci 324. However there must be a way to rout audio to headphone out on the 1224. I too see out puts 1/2 working but have yet to figure out how to rout to headphones. Some one please shed some light here. I'm at day 3 and failing. :cry:

The 1224's headphones output mirrors any audio that is routed to the main outputs.

Thanks for the reply.

How should I rout this? I think I've tried everything. In the above picture I put it back to default.

In bank B (mains) , enable the output to "from computer".
Are you using the AES jacks? Thats what you have set up.
If you want to use the MAIN outs (analog), you need to endalbe them "from computer".

Thank you for the reply. I am not using the AES jacks. I just want to hear analog 1-2 in my phones. Are restarts needed between each setting?

I'm @ my brothers house for the next 3 months maybe. I took what I thought would be a basic DAW. (to not make noise)

I'm ranting a bit. :wink:

Any help would be highly appreciated.

The headphones output can not mirror analog outputs 1-2. It only mirrors the main outputs. If the main outputs are disabled in the MOTU PCI Audio Setup, then the headphones output does nothing.

true dat 1oi.

However, I think there is a jumper inside of the interface that can change that. Don't know for sure, I would have to look in the manual.

There is no jumper in the 1224.
