Banging My head against the wall

Post by fender3 »

My equipment is listed below. My problem is that my Motu828mkII is not listed in my audio window. Everything is set up according to the book, I think. When i click on Hardware it is showing my motu828 yet in my audio window, on the control panel, it shows internal. I have my outputs set on Main out 1 and 2. Now when I first bring up the dp file that I want to work in, it shows IAC as output and doesn't give me an option for my motu device. It is not until I add a new track and select Mach five folder that I can finally change my output to Main out 1-2. I am not given that option until mach five is initialized. Please someone help me. I am going crazy. :roll:
I have a Mac G5 dual hard drive. I am on Tiger. I am currently using a Kurzweil PC3X Synth to a motu828mkII. I am using the Dp 6 with the machfive2 sampler, waves gold bundle, and altiverb reverb unit. Studio Monitors are Mackie 824s. Rode NTK condenser mic.

I don't know what to tell you, but I'd suggest if you want quicker help from someone try to be more descriptive in the subject header of your post.

It sounds as if you haven't created any audio bundles in DP for the 828.
Check out page 171 in the DP manual.

:D I thought this was going to be about an ACDC song.

The Hopiway saved my head from one more bump. I created audio bundles as you suggested and the world is once again a perfect place, of course, until I run into another problem. Once again thank you.
