No phones assign in audio setup with 2 ultralites daisychain

Post by bynoe »

Hi
I have just purchased another Ultralite to daisychain them together, however when i now try to assign the phones output it's not there. I now only have optical input and output and Monitor Input. All 3 of these have no drop down options.
Any help with this would be appreciated.

The UltraLite doesn't have an optical input or optical output. Why would MOTU Audio Setup show those menus if you have only UltraLites connected?

Ok. So how would you explain seeing optical input and output in audio setup when i connect the 2 together? Still looking for an answer :)

The only two interfaces that would have menus for Optical Input, Optical Output, and Monitor Input are the original 828 and original 896. My guess is that you don't have two UltraLite's connected or you've got some very old pre-UltraLite driver version installed.
