896HD a christmas tree on startup (in a loop)

Post by KillDivision »

Hi there, had my 896HD for a year now with great satisfaction.

Until the day came it stayed in a loop of the christmas tree / startup.
Check out the video...

I does the same over and over, even if it´s not connected to anything else.

I searched the board but didn´t find a solution. I found one boardmember who has the same problem ) no solution' but he talked about resetting the 896........?
Can someone help me out?



Ps. I bought a Focusrite Liquid saffire 56 meanwhile, wich also has a great sound like the 896HD, but it´s monitorfunction are soo incredible difficult to understand that it will be sold if the 896HD is healthy again.

Hope someone can help me :cry:

i'm not so technical when it comes to this artificial christmas tree applications. maybe resetting is the best solution.

Yes, but how do you reset a 896HD?
I tried switching the 115/230V switch a few times, but nothing happened.

I've send the 896HD back to Motu USA for repair.
